Midori T @RT26124267 8 hrs ago I get kinda spoilery so warning if you care. It was fine enough. I really liked the fake documentary thing and seeing what the killer did next. I wasn't all that scared for most of it, the only part really getting me being right before Cheryl is kidnapped and doesn't know the killer is in her house, and the 8 year old being taken. I think that's mainly up to me just not being the kind of person to be scared of this sort of thing rather than the movie itself being not scary so I don't blame it for that. I'd be willing to watch it again if I was in the mood for it but it wouldn't be my first choice. I am convinced I got the wrong thing out of the ending and that it was supposed to be horrifying but I was just glad Cheryl wasn't alive to suffer anymore and that the killer took her body like she said she wanted him to take her away. So yeah I am convinced I took away the wrong message from that. Not a bad movie and worth a watch.

Yeah, it was really disturbing. That's about all I can say about it. I guess the main takeaway is that the movie makes clear just the sheer insanity of what evil can be. I bet you anything Cannibal Corpse has seen this movie. There were some big connections if you know them lyrically... better that you didn't though.

But it does feature some pretty damn disturbing sequences and imagery when it’s strictly focused on the tapes themselves. Somehow they got the acting and authenticity down for those, so they stand out even more. See more Read all reviews
