To call director Jack Thomas Smith’s latest effort, an assembled footage flick titled ‘Infliction’ disturbing would be like calling water wet. This is one crazy ass film and quite frankly, I don’t want to ruin the viewing for you by giving you the slightest clue of what you’re in for.

*full disclosure: a DVD screener of this film was provided by Virgil Films. **there are major spoilers here. Director/writer: Jack Thomas Smith. Nothing says entertainment like 100 minutes of familial drama (sarcasm). Director and writer Jack Thomas Smith's Infliction is just that. Themes of sexual abuse, child pornography and incest are the name of the game, but they might not be for you. Yet, sometimes, if a film is not entertaining, then it can be insightful. However, there is very little to be learned from Infliction. Outside of the challenging themes, Infliction suffers from pacing issues through the initial fourty-five minutes and story elements are mostly static through this period. The film looks grainy and washed out, with action elements or horror elements limited to a few scenes. In fact, this title is marketed as a horror outing, but this is a misrepresentation; Infliction is drama through and through.
