Gnaw

I guess I might give closer to 2.5, but I'm rounding down on this one because it was super formulaic... If you can't tell from the description this is essentially Friday the 13th meets Sweeny Todd...Gore scenes were decent... few moderate jump scenes... cinematography was good ( only 1 or 2 really dark scenes )... sound quality was fine...The big downfall in this movie is not was mentioned above... it's just that the script was bad. and I couldn't tell if the actors were bad, or just having to follow a dumb script ( i'm leaning towards the later )... I really am getting sick of the "I'm too stupid to survive pretty much anything" characters in movies... Not once, not twice, not even 3 times, but more like 4+ times was the "villain" knocked down or stabbed and instead of doing anything useful, the characters just run away screaming with their hands in the air...Literally... if I see a friend, tied down on a butcher block, and I see a guy with a big knife about to cut him open... and I manage to wack him over the head with a baseball bat... bad guy drops to the floor... do I...1 - keep hitting him until his head is pulp?2 - kick him again and try to untie my friend?3 - drop the bat and run with arms up high and screaming for the door?Even the one time a "protagonist" picks up a seriously lethal weapon... he just kind of stands there with it frozen... and waits to get punched and be disarmed...I don't think any of the characters in this movie could survive a fight with a kindergartner... thus 2 stars it is...If you are bored, and want to watch a slasher flick... go for it... It wasn't "awful awful"...

I thought we were done making horror movies where the characters only have one brain cell between them all. Boring, unoriginal, the characters could have killed the cannibal many times but chose not to. in fact, sometimes they ran towards him defenseless instead. The kills sucked and there was no story.

In that it wasn't bad, but it wasn't very good. I mean, the premise has been done better other places, but this was an alright representation. That said, it didn't really impress any changes on the format of "the meat is people," so I can't be that excited about it.

Hansel and Gretel , Donner Party and Scarlet Memorial, even Jeffrey Dahmer has a bit of you get what you pay for.

It was pretty good. A little boring at times. But how stupid the characters are is a bit ridiculous hahaha. Like come on! Common sense people, they asked to get killed basically!

I liked it. Cool little flick from across the pond. Very dark, dreary, nasty, ugly, gritty, precisely what you look for in a movie like this. I think they did a good job.

Not bad. I've seen much worst.

I rate this about at the middle of the road level. The acting is bad and the story is simple. The only thing that saved it, if you are a fan of gore it had a few gory scenes. Overall I wouldn't want to see it again.

Relocating from the American Deep South to the terrifying British countryside, this low budget Brit take on The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a reasonably diverting affair, despite having a cliche ridden plot and a group of unappealing, annoying characters serving as its main protagonists.The plot such as it is concerns a weekend trip to a countryside cottage made by six twenty-somethings and the subsequent discovery that their hosts for the weekend have quite a nice home made pie business going on with rather unusual ingredients. Okay, it is extremely derivative and some of the dialogue is pretty banal, but once the killings start the film does build up a modicum of tension, with some gore and gallows humour to help it along.If you are looking for a great British horror concerning cannibalism, then I would recommend either Pete Walker's Frightmare or Gary Sherman's Deathline. If you have a spare hour and a quarter on you hands, and want to check out a bit of modern low budget British horror with its heart, lungs, kidneys and intestines in the right place, you could do far worse than give Gnaw a nibble.Plenty of extras on this release, including a directors commentary and a 'making of' featurette.An entertaining enough horror taken for what is is, I would give Gnaw a respectable 3 out of 5.

well, i bought this DVDon the information i could read "duration: 90 min"perfect, it's the unrated!what i got was a 77 minutes version.. what on earth should I do with a super censored version???I want my missing 13 minutes!!!!
