2/5 More Torture porn

The lead actress of this film does a fantastic job portraying the damaged young lead, but the movie really couldn't hold me because it is just this shallow shell of a film that just seems like an excuse to make a mixed salad of scenes of violence and says to hell with a worth a damn story line. If you like films like Hostel, then you'd dig this - but if you are looking for something smart and something that'll grab your attention and give you a gore-filled ride with brains to match, then this can be skipped, cause this ain't that film.

4/5 Horror Freak

This movie was good for a low budget film. The girl definitely was a sicko......if you enjoy a lot of blood & gore then this one is for you but if not then avoid it. Have seen better but also much worse, did not regret purchasing this one.

2/5 What a Stink Bomb
  by Eric Sanberg (Berwyn, IL United States)
This movie looked interesting in that it was an independent production and the storyline looked decent enough. I checked it out and I was wrong. Pretty far wrong at that.

The lead character, Izzy, has gone off the deep end. It seems she got this way when she learned of her brother's death in Iraq. (at least this is about all we're given as evidence). She is so screwed up she waaaayyyy overreacts to things. I won't recount the plot as others have already done so. We know that people snap. We read it in the news on a regular basis, but I simply didn't believe it here. Maybe it's because the horrible acts she performs are prolonged. In some cases they take days and she is able to hide the fact from the people around her and still maintain a logic (a clever logic at that) to justify what she does. She even waxes philosophic during one scene. These atrocities then go well beyond the realm of "crimes of passion."

As for the nuts and bolts of the movie: There are some real problems there as well. Yes it is low budget but that sort of thing only bothers me when it is accompanied by lousy acting and directing as is the case here. It also fails at the script/dialogue level. Whenever there was prolonged dialogue going on I got the impression I was listening to the writer and not the characters. Maybe it was due to the writing, but maybe it was due to the actors doing a poor job delivering their lines.

All that being said you would do better by seeing a movie like "The Girl Next Door" which deals in the same madness but gives the viewer far greater believability.

1/5 An excuse for being disgusting.

I'm love a good horror film and a well executed gross out moment. This film is horrible on every level and the ending justification for the violence that ensued is laughable. Synapse films, why waste your time on this garbage- because it is dirt cheap to acquire?
