It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

I not fan of Musical horror, i just about like The Nightmare before Xmas, it was one of the only musical movies that I liked. i Liked the open scenes of this movie, 3 different people, who are being asked to open the door. Then soon end up in very strange place and get even stranger, when this weird stranger people start to dance and sing in the movie. There might be some catching tunes in this movie, that may stay in back head for few days after seeing this movie and I didn't like some songs at all, found very dull, there some decent singer in this movie, so it not too forced I did seem to drift away from time to time while watching this movie as never kept hooked as the little plot this movie had moved very slowly.The acting was really good this movie, which I Did not expect, it was fun watch that for sure and it dose go on for too long to repeat same thing for short run time I give 5 out of 10

First of all, I've read through some of the reviews already on here and it just made me realise that the majority of these people didn't actually watch the film. I mean, they must have not? Some of the things they say are just completely ridiculous and wouldn't be said if they had watched the film.First of all, someone said this movie promotes victim-blaming. Uh, no it does not. The young girl goes to hell because she is naive, she trusts her abusive boyfriend over and over until it leads to her death. Her naivety even when she knows better is her sin, as is made blatant when she trusts Scorpion even after he kisses Painted Doll, and when she puts her trust in Lucifer at the end of the movie.The victims are tortured and ridiculed because it's hell. It's the age old assumption of what could be worse than death, and the older woman's nakedness and ridicule is, to her, what is worse than death. She is stripped literally and metaphorically of everything that corrupted her. It isn't mindless titillation, anyone who thinks so clearly has no analytically skills whatsoever.The aesthetics are incredible and the way they've combined Aesop's Fables with a Gothic-esque atmosphere works very well.The only complaint I have is it was too short. There wasn't enough time for character development and the only character I felt any connection at all with was the male victim.

I first saw this film as part of the first Road Tour and I have to say I was infinitely impressed. Besides the fantastically brilliant soundtrack, the incomparably talented cast, the spectacular plot line and the unmatchable talent of Zdunich and Bousman as a pair, the project is a feat in itself. When you consider that the film was shot in a week, in the cold dessert, on a $100,000 budget, and then edited and released within 3 months for viewing, it's awe inspiring. To be able to create what has been created here is the sort of thing that makes all dreams seem possible with work. Darren Lynn Bousman, Terrance Zdunich, and the cast and crew involved have all put part of themselves into this project, and when you see it, you can feel it for yourself.

Forced by a rabid fan-girl to watch this and I want my time back. Rip-off of Aesop's fables done so badly with so little thought to logic that I the moral's are lost.First victim? Why didn't the director/writers have her crushed to death in the weight of her greed and things that she stole? Oh no, we're just going to rip off her clothes and whip her for a bit. Second victim? She "sinned" by trusting? Give me a break. Third victim? Died of sorrow, wasn't terribly clear on it. If you're going to take fables from ancient Greece and combine the Judaic-Christo "evil" character, at least put some effort into it.Looked like they couldn't decide on what kind of costumes to use and just said, "f-it go to the flea market and take everything that you can."
