OMFG! I have seen all of the saw and hostel movies but nothing comes close to the gore you will experince in this SICK movie! i was about to puke 3 times!! i barely made it to the end of the movie! This one was even worse than Takashi Miike's Imprint! I Strongly Warn You: DO NOT eat Before watching this movie!
It's the sickest sh"t EVER!
You're kidding right? The only bit that made me even remotely queasy was the pizza cutter to the kneecap. You want sick...check out the Japanese film Grotesque, or go old school and pick up the uncut versions of Cannibal olocaust, Maniac, Guinea Pig series or I Spit on Your Grave.
shareCheck out Subconscious Cruelty for disgusting. BTW I actually thought Neighbor was pretty good in terms of gore. Another one "up there" would be Gutterballs.
shareNope. Tell you what, if you want to cringe, I recommend the Korean movie "Audition".
This one didn't make me cringe at all, but it wasn't for lack of trying.

Audition is a Japanese movie btw - random jumping around to explain her screwed up past without the drug induced hallucinations of "Neighbor" (did no-one notice the VERY obvious scene of her filling the water bottle with medication then forcing it down the guy's throat?)
The ideas of this were fairly...gross!! but not much was shown, just the effects. Could've been better with a better SFX team maybe...
I guess the movie might top Saw and Hostel in terms of pure gore, but it's WAY inferior than both movies for me. In fact, the movie is quite poor if you ask me: mediocre acting at best,very weak script and uninteresting characters. At least, both Saw and Hostel had good production values, fairly good scripts and decent acting: they weren't just pure torture porn movies like this. If you really want a good home invasion movie with lots of gore, I would strongly suggest À L'Intérieur (Inside) which is one of the best film of this genre in recent years (at least in that one you have an emotional connection with the characters, there is REAL tension and the script is actually quite well written and the acting is very good).

I couldn't have had my thoughts written out any better myself after just watching Neighbor!
Thanks! Another one I could have mentionned is Martyrs, yet another french horror movie with possibly enough gore to top Neighbors, and definitely WAY more substance than that movie as well. I would even say that Martyrs, for me, is much more memorable and gripping than Hostel, Saw or any other movie in the genre. It also happened to be incredibly more disturbing, in terms of graphicness as well as in terms of content. It's surely not for everyone, but I would suggest to you jorgito2001. If you have already seen it, well I'd like to know what you thought of it. In any case, generally speaking, Neighbors is a complete waste of time in my opinion; it's almost as bad as Live Feed, and that's one of the worst movies I ever saw.

Yeah, I've seen Matyrs, not one I'd revisit anytime soon...the climax where she is tortured, beaten senseless within an inch of her life in order to get the "vision" bugged me to no end. I'm not one for flicks like that, another one that isn't nearly as "gorey" but certainly disturbing is Jack Kethum's The Girl Next Door (not to be confused with that comedy about a porn star moving in next door)...can't stand movies with a whole lot of "abuse" in them...especially when their more realistic & true to life, such as in Matrys and Girl Next Door...Neighbor's was a bit more tongue in cheek along the lines of Peter Jackson's Dead Alive (though nowhere NEAR as good as that film).
Never saw Live Feed, but given our similar tastes, I'll be passing on that one.

I would definitely agree on Martyrs and The Girl Next Door being acquired tastes to say the least. I am a bit of a sicko when it comes to such movies I guess lol. Thing is, sometimes I need a movie that will challenge me, even disturb me and provoke me as long as it is well made and that it says something. That being said, one movie I probably would not subjet myself to again is Salo 120 days of salome, which per se is a well made film with a very ferocious critique of fascism and the corruption that can bring ultimate power, but it's so damn harsh and depressing that I couldn't envision myself seeing it again unless somebody would ask me specifically to watch it with them. In the case of Live Feed, it's a rather brillant example of a film that TRIES to be disturbing and fails miserably at that and in terms of being remotely interesting at all because it's so cheaply made and badly executed and acted. Like you, also, I have to say that I can appreciate tongue-in-cheek horror movies a lot when they are well made. Out of the blue, I just thought of a mock up slasher film called Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon which I really relish (you ask me, it's much better than Scream ever was).
