Doesn't mean it's any good.
This is, in my opinion, the worst episode of Masters of Horror by far. The episodes vary on degrees of quality, but this is the only one that I genuinely didn't like.
Billy Drago, who was a very interesting character actor, is terribly miscast here. He over-acts his balls off in this.
The violence is just a long, drawn out torture scene. Yes, it's violent, but it doesn't necessarily make it good. Cigarette Burns is also very violent, but the story is interesting and the acting is good, so it all works. In this, nothing works.
