I thought this genre of hand-held shock began and ended with Blair Witch Project.
The movie is mindless, self-indulgent porn-gore, poorly "acted" by people simply reveling in attempting to give a shock-effect, while uttering the F*-word in nearly every line.
Sure, the movie apparently meets its attempted goal, of desecrating all that is sane, normal, and decent in humans. But anyone who would sit down and decide to take every single aspect of humanity, morality and mental-health to its opposite extreme would probably easily write such a plot, from the same logical (illogical?) conclusions. The movie is therefore predictable and boring. If you're like me and can watch gore and know that it's merely special-effects, the movie is a mere annoying waste of time.
If you're into grotesque special-effects of mutilation, sexual perversion, porn and bodily desecration, then you'll probably think this movie is exactly what you wanted. Which... would then make me wonder about your own mental health. Otherwise, it's a boring, simplistic and predictable antithesis of humanity and all that is good.
I'm sure that everyone involved, especially the actors, enjoyed the mindless attempts at shock and the flaunting porn-acts. But for me, it's mere self-revelry.
