    Loved the photography, loved the actresses. I just didn't get all the hype, I've seen many more disturbing movies so...I don't know. Anyway, I would watch it again tbh.

    This film is so good! It’s completely left my brain pickled but I absolutely love that. One of the most unique films I have ever watched.

    Worst 2h spent ever, the trailer does not show any traces of gore, completely disgusting

    Audacious, shocking, while knowing and true. Getting under the skin, and out of the skin, and back in again. And again. A horror house mirror, distorting yet sharp focused. Cultural disection. Stunning, original. Rare in the world of cinema. Honoring, respectful, sly acknowledgments, nods to influences. Without copying. Rather spring boarding forward with astonishing confidence. Bravo.

    Watch it if you are interested in gross and icky stuff, I highly recommend this since the cinematography, the writing in this is so smart. Though not many might agree but this movie is a must see!! This movie grossed me out but I'd watch it again and again!

    I often complain about how generic most today's mídia appears to be, I think this movie changes my mind, maybe some people shouldn't be allowed to express themselves in an original way.

    It genuinely takes A LOT for horror movies to shock me, no matter the sub-genre. This one still has me reeling. Demi Moore was brilliant. LOVED IT. But be warned, even if you have a strong stomach, this one is something else entirely.

    I’m really not sure what the hell I just watched. The film was entertaining, but the last 30 minutes or so completely lost me.

    I don't see how this movie has such great reviews. It had potential, but it was really bad. This is about as close to sifi porn as a movie could get. Very distasteful.
