yeah...it made low budget 80s horror movies look like high tech oscar material.
I don't understand all the positive comments about it here...people here seem to be confused about what "good gore" is. they may have tried to do some twisted things in this movie, but the effects were completely awful. among all the crappy generic Texas Chainsaw Massacre derived torture porn-lite movies flooding the market these days, this one stands out as being extra bad on every level. bad acting, bad story, bad gore, and even bad filming...what was there to like?
