Pretty sick stuff really

Im not gonna leave a massive comment about this as im not sure how yet, this is my first ever comment on a title... this film, which i did enjoy for the most part, is an excercise in filming torture graphically, if you have a weak stomach i cant say i recommend it but if you like extreme violence and have a perverse liking for watching others in agony then this might just be your thing!!! the acting is a little weak, the story is as usual very loosely "based on a true story" the maniac is pretty good and believable and the violence is extreme,the scene in the outhouse still haunts me-is that a spoiler? if you liked hostel then you'll probably like this i guess
