Creepiest movie I have seen in the last ten years


There is something very weird about the way the (at first) likable trio of bodybuilders impose their will over one man and laugh and joke as they torture and attempt to kill him for money yet the movie keeps the same colorful tone with pastel colors and best hits songs playing every minute as they chop of hands and get electric sheers stuck in hair is just strange down the line.

Normally I could see how this film needed to tell an accurate story as well as being 'entertaining'. But it is like Michael Bay couldn't decide what movie he was making.

The result just plain ugly - apart from the closing credits that is.

While it was based on a true story.. I took it as a dark comedy. Look at Scorcese's The Wolf of Wall St. for another example.

If you didn't like it that's a good thing, You still have a conscience.
