Horror fans & Gorehounds... Prepare to enjoy!

Rating: 5/10 (6 January 2006)

I have to say I am a huge fan of horror, and the gorier the movie, the better. I also must admit I am biased in this review because I love these kinds of movies just that much. However, I can safely say, gore aside, Eli Roth has created a captivating thriller that can keep the attention of even the most attention-deceived viewer.
The beginning really sets you up for a different sort of movie, which is perfectly executed. Honestly thirty minutes into it I was very shocked by the sheer level of nudity.
By the climax of the movie, you are enthralled and, if you have a weak stomach, about to throw up! I honestly laughed at the "goriest" parts because I've seen it all done before. Nothing new, nothing really shocks me anymore.
Thats not it though. Eli Roth creates suspense that can not be learned in a day. He has perfected this and really exploits it. Towards the end I was cheering! Basically, if you even have a passing interest in gore, you owe it to yourself to see this movie. You will not regret it.
