How it feels getting slagged off

Wow! I don't think I have ever been slagged off this much! Maybe I deserve it... I do believe you everyone is entitled to have their opinions voiced and love the fact there is a place where people can do it. It still doesn't make it a nice experience reading it all. But hey, I am not here for the compliments. This film was one of the hardest things I had ever done. We spent weeks in the freezing cold with no running water, no luxuries and a crew of 5. We put our hearts and souls into this production. For the fans who did enjoy it, it was all worth it. In this industry one has to take the good with the bad.

spoilers for the movie!!!!!

I wouldnt call myself a fan but i saw it at frightfest and i enjoyed it fine, enough to get the dvd. Parts of it just screamed "Saw" to me but i don;t know if that was coincidence or if you had the idea before the saw writers. Anyway nicely done film. i can handly any gore and blood but i just can't handle anything involvin broken bones ( gets me squirming) and can i just say great ending, though completely unfair you cruel b***ard! I mean that as a compliment.

just be happy in the fact that you've made a film that people out there have enjoyed just like i'm sure you guys have enjoyed many cult films before, your contributing to the extreme horror genre and doing something you love and that others love. it's only natural that there will be quite a few who aren't into this because of the type of film it is for a start. you can't please everyone so don't bother trying :)

glad that it's british too

The gore effects were very good. But I personally felt that there was so little character and story to it that when people died it didn't matter. I just felt that the gore and horror parts of it fell flat because the character and script didn't marry up.

I have to say thought, the intestines at the begin was something I dont think ive seen before. Very disgusting!!

First off, anyone that compares this movie to Saw is just not getting it and you shouldn't listen to anything they say.

As for people saying that the movie had no plot...are they retarded? That's just a ridiculous comment.

I'm telling you man, some people just don't get certain psychological thrillers unless there is a freak with knives for fingers or chainsaw wielding madman in a spooky mask that interupts young naked people having sex to kill them.
