Am I Missing Something?

A Disappointing Continuation

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I can't believe movies like this are even made. Women are tortured, raped, trafficked, and abused every day, and somehow this is entertainment? It's appalling. I looked up a website for indy films, and was horrified to see this crap included in the listing. Men are such hypocrites. They love to go to strip clubs, but strippers are then viewed by men to be less than human, deserving of whatever harm comes their way. I hate this nonsense, but more and more I think it would be great to have the tables turned and watch men get raped, tortured, mutilated and degraded. Seems fair to me! I genuinely hope this movie didn't generate any revenue.

I blame Eli Roth: he made shed-loads of cash from his positively mediocre Hostel movies, and a whole slew of wannabe torture/porn movie-makers crawled out of the woodwork to follow in his wake, hoping to emulate his success. Experiment in Torture is one of these copycat films, and is quite possibly the worst (yet), having been made by a director with only a fraction of the talent of Mr. Roth (scary, but true), and starring a no-talent cast destined for obscurity.In this dire, amateurish, scare-free mess, a bunch of strippers (some hot, some skanky) are lured to a remote cabin for the weekend, where they expect to be paid handsomely to appear in a fetish video. However, once there, they fall foul of a maniac who drugs and tortures them.Terrible acting, coupled with horrible, horrible camera-work, a lousy script which ultimately makes little sense, and acting that'll make you cringe, all go to make watching Experiment in Torture a rather torturous experience in itself. Admittedly, director Sean MacArthur doesn't wimp out on the nudity and gore, but the whole shebang is so poorly pieced together that nothing much could save this one from stinking to high heaven.The first half of the movie feels like it was badly improvised, with endless dull scenes of yakkety-yak from the bimbos, and practically zero action. The latter half is an unfathomable, almost unwatchable mess that tries to compensate for being confusing with some nasty blood-letting (a broken leg, an arm slicing, a beheading, plus assorted masochistic mayhem featuring a blowtorch and power-tools).The makers of this trash would love to think that it's the unrelenting violence that makes watching it unbearable, but it's not: it's everything else!

We generally like dodgy horrors that are made on a budget of 50p and a pie from Mrs Miggins pie shop but even one shot on half this budget would outclass this movie ten times over.It was a seriously, seriously bad film.I know that anyone reading this is already considering watching this film and like ourselves will probably ignore all these negative reviews and poor ratings and watch it regardless, but do it at your peril! this film really is that bad.Watching paint dry really does seem a more interesting alternative.Note to the film makers should they be reading; There's a Hollywood formula that says that in poor films you need to show gratuitous nudity every 20 minutes to keep the viewer interested. Husband thought the film started interestingly for the first 5 minutes that was shot in a lap dancing club but then petered out. Application of this formula would of made this film slightly more interesting though unfortunately not much better.Poor camera work, poor lines, poor delivery, poor acting, poor effects, poor script and poor me for watching it.Better luck next time

some slutty strippers go to a guys house to sit around and take part in a porno (in which there is no porn) and then 1 or 2 guys drug a girl. then 1 breaks her leg. which heals in the next scene and the other one is broken. and then the cast switches back onto the other leg. and then after all that crap like 2 of the girls are tied up in the basement and some guy walks over and is like. OGABOGA and he apparently had acid on his face. but it looks like crappy halloween store make up. and he is like im going to kill you. and then the camera spins around and u hear a drill and u don't see anything and then a girl is like omg i think i am dead. and then like a girl gets a gun somehow and pow. the guy is dead. This movie sucks so bad. it looks like they filmed it with a camera phone. and also there are more mistakes in this movie that there are in a retarded spelling bee. if you were unlucky enough to have watched this movie, it will be okay. youu need to stay calm and call the suicide hotline because otherwise u will kill yourself thinking omg how can a movie suck so much.
