Ok previous reviews on here have been weak to my eye, so i have decided to weigh in on a more detailed review.
The film has its positives and negatives, but still manages to uphold its grue and power.It has a supernatural side to the story which i thought was never fully explained therefore i think not needed. The gore level is VERY high and dont expect it to have its full running time when it comes out in theatres!, coz i'm sure the editing floor will have some work to do on it first! but if you can definitly watch it before it gets cut because you will have a taste of extra cool SFX, such as a circular saw meeting the face and a nifty bolt cutter scene to the spine! not to mention the countless scenes with a drill! anyway the performances are great and powerful, from angela bettis to the killer being naturally scary and truly facially F**ked up! story line drags a little some what during the middle but Tobe instantly flicks the light switch back on delivering what seems one of the scariest and most overlooked horrors of 2003.
