Worth a look for fans of extreme cinema, Pig is undoubtedly an unpleasant experience and as such isn't for everyone. Much less a narrative film than a technical experiment, as there isn't any story to speak of, think of it as a gory experimental film and you're not too far off the mark. Boasts a great, demented performance by the lead actor and contains some genuinely disturbing moments that are unfortunately offset by long stretches where not much is happening but crazy shenanigans that don't amount to much and a fairly annoying, overused score. Still, Adam Mason is definitely a talented director and unlike so many other horror movies, Pig isn't cookie-cutter formula film-making and deserves to be seen... But again, not by everyone.
