7/10
Well, That Escalated Quickly.
18 September 2014
Okay, let me just start by saying; this is one of the best shot films i've seen in a long time. Let it be known that 80% of the cast were very young when this was shot, yet they perfectly recreated a "70's Cult Flick" theme. Very well done on that front. Plot line was very gritty and dark, but uplifting in a F**ked up sort of way. Supposedly a True Story. I gave it a seven because let it be known some of the acting is very cheesy but then that contributes to the "70's Cult Flick" theme mentioned earlier. We got a very basic character build up. It was essentially a day in the life. I personally would've liked to see more into the characters background. Smooth Start, Rough Middle, Nice Finish. Reminded me VERY MUCH of 8 Mile, Jennifer Lawrence playing Eminem's Character.

Creativity should be worth more than Shock Value

I won't give a review telling you how gruesome this film is, gonna comment on why I gave it a "1". This movie, without a doubt, one of the worst movies i've ever had the displeasure of watching, yeah, we get it, shocking, mentally messed up man ties 10 people together to make a sick project. But where's the character development? Where's the acting? All the characters were given no background, no way to fully understand their lives and no happy ending either. The director has decided to use Black & White to make the film seem "Artsy", when it's clearly just a snuff film, there is hardly any spoken word whatsoever which makes it really hard to distract from the filth during each scene and the film has now left me feeling insecure about life, I couldn't actually watch the film all the way through and only recently went back and finished it. Terrible plot, terrible premise, terrible ending, terrible acting, terrible editing. Overall, just awful.
