The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

I recently watched two Ittenbach-movies within one week, attracted by the stories on the cover: this one and "Beyond all limits". They are actually both in the same vein.Maybe there's a certain audience for it, but I have to admit that it's definitely not my cup of tea. That has nothing to do with a tender heart, I'm really a horror-addict and I can take about anything. But Ittenbach seems to forget that movie-making is about more than just punching people in the belly with a visual surplus of gore. There should also be something like a more or less coherent story to begin with, and a plot, and a decent script and at least one or two professional actors. What we get here lacks all of the afore-mentioned. You could as easily go to a butcher and watch him kill and dissect a cow for one and a half hour. It's obvious that Ittenbach only wants to show-off, like a school- boy who tries to impress his class-mates:"look what I dare to do!!". The movie is supposed to be horror, but it's not: it's never in any way scary, it's just tasteless and with the ceaselessly mounting scenes of gruesome tortures it gets more and more predictable, boring and at many times even preposterous. To give you an example: the scene where a guy starts to dismember the body of a killed person in a bath-tub. He steps in the bath-tub naked (why?? To add to the: "look what I dare to show"-feeling?) and starts a dissection that takes about 5 full minutes, cutting and sawing and knifing and tearing, while standing up to his knees in a mush of bloody flesh. There is no way that this prolonged scene adds anything to the story, it's just showing-off. The whole movie is full of this. Breaking toes, driving knives into eyes, stabbing children, beating-up a woman senseless; we see bowels pouring out off bellies, mutilated corpses, it endlessly goes on and on and on. Maybe I should admire the special effects - I admit, it all looks pretty convincing. But that's about it, there's nothing more to admire.O, I almost forgot. The people that have to undergo all these horrors also have to act. However, I would hardly call it acting: they just drone their lines with heavy German (or other weird) accents. But maybe no-one cared for decent acting, since sooner or later (mostly sooner) every character gets killed in a horrifying way. Professional acting must have seemed like a waste of money.As I said: there's probably a market for this kind of exploitation horror, and I realize that all that I've said here will sound to a specific kind of aficionado as music in the ears. But in my opinion it has nothing to do with movie-making. It's plain silly, cheap and childish.

This film must have the worst actors I've ever seen, I mean even sitcom actors are Oscar worthy compared to this. Then the way the story is being told..... it's a wonder I didn't fell asleep. The only reason I'm giving this movie a 2 out of 10 is because it only wasted 87 minutes of my life, where most movies are several minutes longer (Yeah I know I just should have pressed the stop button, but I guess it's my stubborn nature that keeps me watch the movie to the end). The idea and actual storyline might have been OK, but they screwed this one up so bad, that this doesn't even matter anymore... I hope that tomorrow when I wake up I'll believe that watching this was all a bad dream. Like I said, use this movie by suggesting it to people you REALLY don't like and wish they'll have a awful night.

Well, I've met Olaf once at a convention, he signed stuff for free, guess what a nice person he is. And you can see him in his own flick walking on street, bouncing his wife. So far so good. It's a gory f lick but you will have to take the really awful acting. That they talk English with German accent I can take but Olaf's wife just can't act. For the story, it's okay but doesn't deliver any suspense or creepy moments. The effects used for the bloody parts is well done. But it is also a slow starter, you will go for 30 minutes into talking and guessing before the gore comes in. Some scene's are not for the feint hearted. I can understand that some will gave difficulty with the fact that children are being chainsawed. And this is surely one for the girls, there is full frontal male nudity. The bath scene is probably the goriest part and well done but as I said, it lacks a bit of keeping you attracted.

After reading some of the reviews here, I was actually scared to approach this movie. I thought I was in store for something in the lines of Irreversible, you know, that movie that disturbed the hell out of you—where the guy gets a fire extinguisher smashed into his face, and the girl gets brutally, and I mean brutally raped for ten minutes in a subway station, and all that jazz. Granted, there is a lot of violence in this film, but come on, they have been pulling innards from corpses since George Romero's Night of the Living Dead. Could be I watched an edited cut, could be. Yes, the weird accents of a lot of the players are annoying, but that kind of makes it even creepier, like in Suspiria creepy. I still don't understand how the daughter survived but I'm not going to watch it a second time to figure it out, it doesn't matter. What we have here is not exactly as obscene as the Hong Kong shocker Run and Kill (check that out for cruelty) and more in the lines of a twisted version of Trainspotting or something. I found this much more watchable than all those stupid Saw sequels. And there is even a bit of a twist at the ending, making it much less of the snuff film it has been reported as been.
