Absolutely hideous, nonsensical movie about what???

I've seen some bad films in my time but this is really, really bad.

Avoid. It's not even good because it's bad. It's just bad, bad, bad.

I have noticed that almost every single person who gave this film 1 star, and wrote a bad review, all admit to not actually watching the whole film! You all say "I watched it for 20 minutes..." So, how the hell can you give a film ANY review, good or bad, without having actually watched the movie?

If you accidentally put a turd in your mouth, you don't have to chew, swallow, fully digest it, crap it out taste it again to know it is bad. This movie certainly didn't get better after 20 minutes, the style was the only thing it had going for it, which isn't saying much, but it could have been worse

I have a rule and that is that i have to watch a film to the end no matter what. I watched this all the way through. Yes, it was painful and made me question the sanity of my rule. The movie doesn't get any better after the first 20 minutes. When that guy Carl was praying to God for strength, so was i!

Thanks for confirming it doesn't get any better. I knew it wouldn't.

I so much agree with you. Film is so so mind numbing and assaults ones psychological stability.

I completely agree with you on this! I think this may be the worlds first "Z" rated movie. Absolutely terrible!
