At first, I felt like the film was too gory and over the top, but its meaning and themes are powerful. I did read that it was a horror film, but I wasn't expecting so much horror. Forty-eight hours later, it discusses society, beauty, and youth. I wasn't familiar with this director, but I'm glad I am now. The acting was great.

This movie is just brilliant, visceral, over the top, insane fun. It works as a criticism of our current shallow society, but it also works as a classic Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde style horror flick. It's very long and very gross, but I couldn't take my eyes off it, even if my stomach sometimes wanted me to.

Gave it two stars, just because it was interesting enough to see to the end.'Other than that, run away. It's a waste of time. The story is too strange with so many holes in it we laughed almost all the way through.

This, in part, is a preview to what's coming. Read the second half of the Book Of Revelation in the Sacred Scriptures. Evil to the power of 6. This movie has parallels with life - not being able to go back. "It will come upon you as a snare..."

Well played but not enough story

This movie tried to hard. The ending was ridiculous, and completely different from the rest of the movie. The bulk of the movie was average for sci-fi. Awesome condo, though!
