American Guinea Pig: Bloodshock

How do you review a film like this? Well, imagine being a hospital patient with "locked in syndrome." This is an illness where, due to a very specific type of stroke, the sufferer finds themself trapped in a body that, while completly devoid of voluntary muscle control, can feel every indignity of a normal person. So imagine that a fly lands on your nose. You are unable to swish it away, but you can feel every little itchy leg as it dances on your shnozz. You cannot ask for help, because you cannot move any of your voluntary muscles including those which control speech.

OK, you get where I'm coming from. Now imagine you took an enourmous painful diarrhea defecation, and had to just sit in it for an hour and a half before your wet-nurse came in to change your adult diaper. That is comparable to what its like to sit through this film. To paraphrase Christopher Walkin, "That isn't any kind of fun. But in terms of what this movie has to offer, that's as good as it's gonna get. And it wont ever get that good again." However, if you wish to ignore my heartfelt advice, and soil your mind with this load of visual fertilizer, the smell of which, will stay with you for a long time, you can watch it free on YouTube at a channel called Kings of Horror.

But don't say you havent been warned!

Directed by The Guru Of Gore, Marcus Koch, and written by The President Of Unearthed FIlms, Stephen Biro, The Man who revived the series in the US with the first chapter, called "Bouquets of Guts and Gore." Starring Dan Ellis, Lillian McKinney, Andy Winton, Gene Palubicki and Alberto Giovannelli, this is the most intense, unimaginable, raw, twisted, mind-blowing torture porn film I have ever seen in my life. I'm not saying this one's better than the rest of the guinea pig films, including the first Americanized version, but it's very different from all of them. It's more than just a torture flick - this film has that beautiful atmosphere, the vibe, the psychology, the feeling. It gets disturbing and more disturbing every minute till the end. The best beautiful, sick, unforgettable ending ever, which will hit you right in your head, BAM!!! This is my first Dan Ellis film, and it's just incredible the way he acted, going through all of the pain with the emotions he showed, incredible. I knew he was in Ryan Nicholson's films, which I will surely check out. Lillian McKinney gave an awesome performance as well, and I would love to see her act more. The rest of the cast all did well too. Movies like this are worth it in my opinion. I find disturbing films interesting. The sicker it gets, the more interesting it gets. This is one movie to see before you die if you're a pure extreme horror fan, and this is definitely not for the squeamish.

I was very curious Bloodshock, simply said it's about a man who's locked up in a white room. And every few minutes he gets tortured in all kinds of creative ways, the first half hour was decent but nothing too shocking unless you've never seen the harder stuff. It starts to get interesting after 40 minutes, i thought that for most of the time it was just pure torture for the sake of torture and nothing else, but oke there's a little subplot about another prisoner of which i won't spoil anything. In my opinion the movie was just oke because i expected it to be just as extreme and nauseating as Stephen Biro's Bouquet of Guts and Gore , it never reaches the same level of gore. But Bloodshock does deliver at some moments, especialy near the end. My final point of criticism is that i personally would've rather seen the movie in color, but to each his own. If you like blood and gore just add it to your collection.

This film was obviously based on the 2009 Horror Exploitation Classic Grotseque. It's literally the same exact princip. However, this movie is overly repetitive and slow. The end scene was the sickest scene dye to it being only colorized, and we see our two victims, having a sexual intercourse, and bite their own wounds, getting into a pool of blood. That was really nasty, everything else dye to being black and white, was kinda boring and dull.

The film was supposed to be a shocker, it was more a creepy movie instead of being really shocking, except the ending, the ending was really dark.

A man and a woman are put under extreme experiments so that natural morphine and adrenaline are created in their blood. The doctor draws out the blood at the right time. He then injects that blood into his own blood stream for some sort of wicked high. Weird.

This wasn't like a Guinea Pig movie at all. It's supposed to be the sequel to American Guinea Pig: Bouquet of Guts And Gore (2014) which was a nasty slice of film. This was the one where they used bolt cutters to get through the rib cage. Bloodshock however doesn't even compare. There is a couple of cringing moments but mostly boring believe it or not. This is shot in black and white which doesn't help the cause for this film. It does work for the director who wanted the end to be in colour showing the two patients ripping out each others stitches and playing in each others wounds. For an ultra violent black and white done right watch Infidus (2015).

This one just seemed too tame and puts you to sleep. Hopefully their next outing will be better.

In one scene the woman's chest cavity is opened a good ten inches exposing everything and you see the heart beating. I wondered what he was going to do to keep things from getting infected and suddenly the doctor bends over and licks all inside of the chest cavity. Problem solved.
