With a pocketful of drugs, Nick West takes out his girlfriend Sammy, for a shag and a good time. When they explore an abandoned asylum, the discovery of a bizarre device - a cross between an electric chair and sadistic fetish machine - transforms drugged-out bliss into agony and despair
The film starts out strong, with an unlikeable protagonist, good practical gore effects, and some really terrible computer animated effects, but it tends to drag here and there, with the lead character finally breaking the fourth wall. Much has been written about the film literally insulting the horror fan, but some of us in the community have thicker skins than that. The finale is ugly, and the final shot only led to more questions. I was onboard with the majority of this, until those last few minutes. Content Warning- Strong physical violence, sexual violence, strong gore, strong profanity, sexual references, strong adult situations, drug abuse, alcohol and tobacco use.
