Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
divg-57-800054 This movie make you ask yourself if all documentaries and nature programs are made it without interference and the people who make the docs are really there with good intentions. This movie is not for everyone, you have to be very prepared to see one of the worst side of humanity i gave a 10 because i want to equilibrate the big amounts of 1, from people who couldn't see the movie just for the hard content . I rate this with a 8.
GUENOT PHILIPPE I know that I will probably repeat what other users have already said, but this movie is for me the true ancestor of the likes of BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, REC, PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, THE BAY, CLOVERFIELD...and I am not speaking of the stories, of course, but the footage principle, way of filming, if you prefer. And I will continue by saying that this movie is maybe the most unbearable horror movie of all time, not for the sissies, and a film which shows the most gratuitous blood bath ever. But, if you watch this feature till the end, you can also conclude that this is a film that makes you think about the true human nature. So this seemingly gratuitous side of the gore shown here is perhaps not so gratuitous after all. That's what I wanted to say. Sorry if I have repeated some other comments. I have not read them. Unfortunately, the audiences able to use their brain, the most intelligent audiences, will probably not make it till the end of it. On the other hand, the less intellectual audiences, bloodthirsty audiences, will probably not understand what the ending exactly means. A sort of hybrid movie made half for intellectuals and half for empty brains.
jacobjohntaylor1 This movie is awful. The acting is awful. The story line is awful. It is not scary it just really gross. I like a lot gross horror movie. I like The Texas chainsaw massacre (1974) And I think this is feat to gross do not see it. I do not know why this got 6. I give it a 2. I like to be scared to do not like to be grossed out. There most be people who like being grossed out. The Texas chain saw massacre was violent but it the original The Texas chain saw massacre was scary. This not scary. If you want to see something scary see The green inferno.
Smoreni Zmaj For his work on the film, the director was arrested by Italian authorities on suspicion of murder charges and faced life in prison, following its 1980 Milan premiere. He endured a trial when Italian authorities were unconvinced that the footage was indeed staged. Deodato lost the original trial, and all prints were to be destroyed, but he managed to have the ruling overturned in the early '80s when the actors finally appeared on TV to prove otherwise.Some five years passed before the film saw release in Deodato's home country. This movie was banned for twenty years in many countries.Only for fans of disgusting footage...
