I find this movie too disgusting to watch...


...what with all manner of things, namely the stuff the old woman does, namely:

- Sucking on a sweet noisily and coughing up phlegm
- Her blind eye
- Her wrapping her lips around the Loan Officer's mouth sans false teeth
- The Lamia in her form vomiting bugs into the LO's mouth
- The dead corpse of the old woman vomiting decomposing putrefaction fluid into the LO's mouth
- That damn housefly
- The heavy object falling on the Lamia's head making her eyeball enter the LO's mouth

Basically, there's a lot of mouth action here, and I find that sort of horror particularly bad, when it's nasty stuff.

However, I did find the seance rather funny, with the posessed man coughing up the cat and the talking goat, and the general insanity of it. But I just cannot get past the mouth stuff, it's too much. And yes, I know Evil Dead 2 did the flying eyeball as well.

Why are you here if you haven't seen the movie yet?

Raimi is obsessed with mouths, you see this in all his films

Raimi is obviously well aware how mouth stuff freaks a lot of people out. Overused in this movie? Probably, but I liked it anyway. The old girl fully sucking on Christine's chin in the car fight I was particularly impressed with. Awesomely gross.


...then whoa, differences...

Yes -- good point. This gross stuff might work for 13 year-olds, but it's cheap and weird. I can find gross stuff on Youtube if I need to.

I was eating when the first scene at the bank started and I almost couldn't finish it was so gross.
