Intense thriller

Rating: Null/10 (12 March 2006)

This movie was surprisingly very good, having seen it with little to no expectations. Possibly one of the most intense thrillers I have ever seen, there were a number of scenes where I cringed with fear and disgust. Sure, the second half of the film turns out to be pretty predictable and not unlike others of the same genre, but the first half was decent plot-wise and the characters were believable. The acting was very good too and the monster-like mutations were exciting to watch.
Like House of Wax but better with more blood, gore and action. I definitely recommend this movie if you're up for over an hour's worth of good Friday night entertainment.
