7/10
Possibly the bleakest and most stomach churning horror film I have ever watched
10 January 2014
Warning: Spoilers
How I first heard about this movie was on Facebook, from one of the many horror movie pages I like since I'm a huge horror fan. They advertised it and what caught me first of all was the cover. It reminds me so much of Death Metal album cover (which I'm also a fan of). But at the same time it shocked me in a way and I felt I had to find out more about it.

I then read the plot and I have to say it captivated me because I've never heard of something like this in a horror film before. So I then bought it on DVD from Amazon. I have just finished watching it and I have to say it was possibly one of the most effective films I have ever watched.

The story really works and the character development was very simple but good. One thing I would like to know is the character's names. I'm not sure why they weren't named

The acting was really good especially from Kayden Rose.

The cinematography was great. Slightly out of focus at times but not enough to annoy.

One of the best things I thought was the lighting.It really showed the bleakness of the scenes brilliantly and added a lot of subtly when showing Kaydon's character at her worst through her decay. It felt like the director was saying "you don't need to see the disgusting image all the time, but I would like you to imagine it" which made it just as effective.

The makeup was absolutely outstanding. I cannot believe how realistic it looks. Devil horns go up to the makeup artists.

So overall it was a good movie but I don't think I could watch it for a while. It was very uncomfortable to watch at times. The most disturbing scene was the end. I'm not going to spoil it anymore.

So horror fans, if you want to see it please do. But I warn not to eat before and during the film. Also it doesn't show a spec of happiness throughout, which is why I thought it was very bleak.

Mr Eric Falardeau, for your first major film, you did a great job. I hope to see you make more films in the future. You rock dude.
