With the knowledge that Bret Easton Ellis wrote and produced this film I had to see it posthaste. With his penchant for nihilistic narratives, violence and biting satire, Ellis is a favorite writer of mine so in that sense my opinion may be completely tainted by my fondness for this author and screenwriter.
In the same sense I do undoubtedly posses a adoration for stalk and slash cinema so this film was right up my alley of ravaged bodies and rotting corpses.
Adolescents, a cult that kills with abandon, gory visuals and an underlying sense of disillusionment as evidenced in the main character all collide to forge a slab of celluloid that was fun to watch and carefree.
If you're perhaps looking for something that breaks the mould look elsewhere. If you are in the mood for a stylistic, well acted and savage piece of cinema then you have stumbled upon a gem.
