Theres a part of me that wants to like this film but killing 11 animals at the same time making a film thats criticizing violence, that takes away all the magic of film. With that excluded you still get a sloppy movie. The acting is poor, the script and the director are full of hypocrisy and the same ruthless barbarism that its trying to protest. I do however find this movie to have some really positive traits going for it.. The violin music that plays over the more disturbing scenes helps to really captivate you and sends chills up your spine. The theme of media manipulation and double standards is truly insightful and ahead of its time. Eli roth states this is his favorite movie. The movie is good but is dragged down by it's murder of animals for "art" and a director who doesn't know his limits.
