Very well done for a horror movie sequel

Rating: 8/10 (18 November 2005)

This movie is truly disturbing. I think it should have gotten an NC-17 rating. It amazes me what the MPAA will allow in terms of violence, but they readily slap NC-17 on movies with sex or language.
Most of the time you are able to walk away from a movie and say it was just a movie and couldn't happen in real life. The disturbing part of this movie is how plausible the plot could be to someone that is not right in the head. All of the traps/games of torture in the movie could be easily reproduced by any nut.
I think it exposes the hypocrisy that Congress would raise such a stink about video game violence, but you hear no complaints about Saw II? As for the movie, it was very well done and worth seeing to someone who is a fan of smart, crime/horror movies. Be warned it is not for the squeamish.
