I was teasing my x-girlfriend about a movie which was so horrible that I hadn't even dared watch it myself, so naturally she wanted to see it. Now she's not some heavy metal chick that's used to seeing hardcore stuff, but a more preppy babe type, the kind who likes the color pink and light blue.
But oh my, what a boring viewing experience. Halfway through she wanted me to turn it off, not because she was shocked, but because it was difficult staying awake to this stuff. The main issues are that there's simply nothing interesting happening at all, and that there's left no room for empathy towards the victims. Just a lot of yelling, screaming and laughing, going on and on, which is incredibly annoying, just like stepping in a dog's leftovers is annoying, but never really frightening.
Slightly amusing was the part where a female victim was forced to eat her brother's genitals, but at that time we were so detached from the movie, that even that failed to shock.
Had someone given this to me on a black, unmarked, slightly worn VHS tape, telling me I could not let anyone know where I'd gotten it from, it would surely had much bigger impact. Downloading it as a film that everyone has said was the worst, most shocking thing ever created however gives you a few expectations which were never really satisfied.
