Why do people say this movie is bad because


It's sick and disgusting? That's what it's supposed to be, idiots. It's not supposed to entertain you, it's not supposed to make you feel good, it's supposed to disturb you, it's supposed to make you feel bad and it's supposed to make you realize how *beep* up some people are. It doesn't make sense to say that a SICK movie is bad because it's SICK.

Most people don't watch violent movies to be entertained, they watch them to be disturbed and to see how terrible things like murder and rape are. Those movies aren't supposed to be entertaining. If you think people who like this movie like it because they'd love to see people die in real life, you're *beep* stupid. They think it's a good movie because it disturbed them, it had a strong effect on them. People who think violent movies are good aren't "sick". I can't stand when people say things like "anyone who enjoys this movie is sick! Seeing people die in horrible ways isn't entertaining!" They're just so ignorant and close minded... IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ENTERTAINING! Being entertaining is not the purpose of every single movie, dammit! This movie is supposed to be shocking! You think such movies make people feel like killing people? You're an idiot, they do THE OPPOSITE. Violent movies don't influence sane people to kill or whatever, they make people see how *beep* sick and terrible killing people is and how *beep* up the world is. Not exactly a bad thing if you ask me.

I love "sick and disturbing" films but to me this wasn't even a film. I like horror films like "Inside" or "The Exorcist" but this doesn't even have a story. Plus, it was poorly made and had terrible acting. This was basically fake snuff.
