A symptom of the appetite for pain and death of our society

Rating: 1/10 (27 October 2014)

This film, though well made and well acted, was popular because of its subject matter - extreme violence, torture and sadism.
I can only say that the genere itself reflects the sick appetite for entertainment based on crime pain and death that has become a hallmark of western society.
I can only wonder what less corrupted people think when they watch this and similar films, along with the inordinate amount of gruesome crime TV series.
Perhaps, folks, it is time to reflect on this obsession and demand better.
As if there is not enough violence in the real world...
