I went into this movie with a pretty open mind. But there is something truly wrong with a film that not only plainly and openly portrays cannibalism but also attempts to justify and defend it.
It's a horrific story. The events are extremely sobering.
But what does a movie like this have to offer?
Moral? Nope.
Escapism? Heck no.
Catharsis? Nope.
Entertainment? Not really.
It is well shot, well acted, well edited. Beautifully crafted. But this is just not a story that I wanted to be told. No amount of skill as a director would be able to change that.
I hate to sound overly dramatic but, I wish I could take back the hours I spent watching and thinking about this movie lol there were genuinely some deeply unpleasant scenes here that I never want to revisit.
