A Masterpiece!

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

I really wanted to like this film, I like to see British horrors, but the script was predictable and badly written making the characters very one dimensional, not only did you know what was going to happen but you knew exactly what they were going to say.They stuck every cliché in there: sex starved young people in an isolated place, the strange cook who was in on it all along, the killer who wears a mask for no reason, the slow walking bad guy always catching up easily with the running characters, the Gothy chick who has a strange bond with the killer, lots of people wandering off by themselves to make them easier to kill, even down to a 'shock' victims hand slamming against a car window after exactly three seconds of silence. This really did feel like horror making by numbers.The gore wasn't gory, everything was off screen with a couple of exceptions of bits that were too much on screen and brightly lit so you could see how fake they were.The suspense wasn't suspenseful, there was a big deal in the 'what's in the kidney pie' even though you saw someone having their kidneys removed in the very first scene and one character finds a human hair in her food right near the start which destroyed any chance of prolonging the mystery.This is to British horror what x-factor is to real music, bland and damaging.And after I figured out that 'Gnaw' was 'Wang' backwards I couldn't take it seriously anyway ... even though it was from Poundland I felt slightly ripped off.

This is a list that I have compiled of CRAP that makes horror movies totally suck:1.Creepy lullaby music and mysterious la-la singing out of nowhere. 2.Predictable villain one liners(which sometimes are awesome, but not here.) 3.Lame music during sex scene. Pitiful. 4.Predictable death sequence. 5.Obnoxious college student characters that take FOREVER to die! 6.Total lack of murderer's personality. No psychological fear. Boring. 7.Cellphones. In my humble opinion, movies that fail the horror genre in these ways are all too common in modern cinema, especially in the 2000's. At least I could laugh the discarded fashion choices of films from the 90's, but these bratty college kids are to familiarly irritating to laugh at yet. I want my precious hour and sixteen minutes back, you bastards.

Six dumb, stereotypical friends go to the English Countryside for some drinking, sex and other activities. So, what's with the old lady and all the meat they've been getting? Oh, and look out for a bloodthirsty cannibal with a sheep skin covered mask."Eden Log", I congratulate you: you are no longer the worst horror flick I've seen this year. A poor attempt at doing a gory, tongue in cheek cannibal/slasher flick, "Gnaw" is a film that desperately wants to be a British answer to the "Wrong Turn" and "Hostel" films, as well as a British "Texas Chainsaw Massacre." That's fine and all, except it lacks the fun 70's/80's horror throwback aspect of the "Wrong Turn" flicks, as well as the Black Humor and Social Commentary of the "Hostel" movies and the choking atmosphere and claustrophobia of "Chainsaw." Hell, there's already a British answer to "Chainsaw"-it's called "Raw Meat", and it's much better than this movie.It also doesn't help that everything else falls flat. The Black Humor of the film is neither clever or interesting, while the attempts at more serious, dramatic moments are laughable at best. Plus, while there's plenty of gore, it's all so lethargic and monotonous-there's no energy to any of the violence or viscera on display, and it's a bore to sit through. Add to an twist so predictable it would be insulting to call it a twist, as well as an annoying score and poor acting, and you get a really bad horror flick that borders on unwatchable.On the plus side, at least the killer has a unique mask. In the end though, "Gnaw" isn't worth your time or consideration. For a better British Slasher flick, see Christopher Smith's movies "Creep" and the satirical "Severance" instead of this. For a better British Cannibal flick, see the aforementioned "Raw Meat" instead of this. Trust me, you're better off doing that.

Pretty boring horror.Little to no atmosphere - No background story whatsoever - Useless mask on killer - Very unoriginal - No/crappy musicThe acting was not bad and the film quality was great.. Just wish they had done something worthwhile with it..I love horror movies, especially ones about serial killers and cannibals, but sadly there are not a lot out there that are any good. I fell for the "rave reviews" about this movie, I have to say they did a pretty good job marketing it. And it doesn't look like a crappy camcorder movie either, it actually looks like a quality movie.. Sadly there's nothing special about this and all in all it's just boring. Sorry for you actors and filmmakers, but I have to advice people to not waste time on this movie.All the UK reviews are fake.
