You *MUST* see the UNCENSORED Version
7 April 2011 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

I give this movie a 10 for being the ultimate in it's genre.

I have never rated a movie on IMDb before, but this movie got under my skin and really did something to my brain. Maybe I'm trying to exorcise the demon dwarf that has wriggled into my soul.

I watched the uncensored version with the burned in danish subtitles. There was a full XXX close up penetration scene. Holy Sh**! One of the sicker things about the movie was that the supposed sex slaves really got into the sex with just a little encouragement. I mean they were really getting pretty enthusiastic. Something very wrong there.

I felt bad, twisted and unclean after watching this movie. It has a gritty, grimy, slimy, sleaziness that makes it kind of a masterpiece.

You know its something special when it's stuck in your brain days after watching it. Most of the time I forget a movie by the next day. Not this one.

The only one that comes close for me to the same kind of gritty, creepy, dare I say "evil" darkness is Gummo. That said, Gummo has nothing on this movie.

If you are going to take the time to watch it, you really should see the uncensored version. I mean you might as well go all the way. Part of the sickness of the movie is that it is just a vehicle for a couple of fairly hardcore porn shots. Filthy, depraved, and unforgettable.
