Ok, there’s funny horror that makes you giggle, there’s sarcastic horror that takes the fun out of other horror, and there’s scarey horror that makes you jump. This is a completely different category though – sick! The mind that comes up with these ideas has seriously been on too much caffeine and other less legal substances. The evil character is on his last legs and has an assistant who is continuing the tradition of putting people in horrific predicaments where they have to choose death or nasty consequences – burn your hand in a bottle of acid in order to free yourself from a rib-cracking death machine, for example. The gore level is very high, but surprisingly the twist in the end and the whole construction of the narrative (yes, it does have quite a good story) is well thought out. Don’t watch if you prefer your heroines not to have their heads exploded by a dynamite collar!
