Ian S @RT48225084 May 17, 2026 Black comedy that had it's moments but was a bit too one note. Mostly well acted. An odd one but watchable.

It got a little tedious.

Not so much traditional horror as it is psychological horror, an unnerving experience in which you're held hostage by a family that is sociopathic, if not as traditionally violent as the Sawyer / Leatherface family. The movie was initially looked over because of sheer "indifference" - it wasn't a slasher movie or a thriller. But what it was, was a psychological study in psychosis. A pioneer of the psychological horror genre, as well as a political satire. See more Apr 4, 2016 This looks like an uneventful children's movie, but it is actually full of psychological horror.

I expected something way gorier, being a black comedy and all. It's not funny, it's not scary and it's not that weird - three strong features I hoped for before watching it. It's quite surreal and mysterious and the nutjob family and plot is OK. A rather unknown film, never being a hit in UK - where it was produced. It got some fame in US, but not much. The acting and the looks of Girly (Vanessa Chartoff) is my guess why it got any attention at all. She gave up acting shortly after the film, unaware of the glimse of fame the film got in US. Anyhow, a film that should have been weirder, gorier, funnier and better in most ways. Not a total disaster, but more a curiosity. Strangly enough it got some sort of appeal and it's not a boring film. I'm pretty sure Kubric saw this film by the way... 4 out of 10 axe holes. See more Read all reviews
