Eat Me

This is not your usual run of the mill, "house invasion" movie. It is very different to anything you will have ever seen before within that genre. The scene is set with an attempted suicide superimposed by a house invasion. What follows is disturbing, comedic, and bizarre. You feel an uncomfortable witness to brutality and degradation, but the movie and tight acting holds your attention enough to see it though. It's an original and compelling movie, and leads us to question what our lives really account for.

Just watched a truly unique film, I've really never seen anything like it. A suicidal woman, that has taken a huge number of pills, and close to death, is interrupted by two home intruders. One intruder goes to get some beer and crap, and the other guy takes advantage of the passed out, but not dead woman. She eventually comes around, so basically the intruders have saved her from dying. He does everything to her, including rape, but since she only wants to die, none of this makes any difference to her. The movie now turns into a "My Dinner With Andre" as it turns into a talk fest. This was recommended to me, and I did really enjoy it, although it is one of the weirdest movies I have seen.

I don't know why this movie has such a low rating - it is worth so much more.

Perhaps horror slasher fans didn't find what they were looking for, which is understandable. I would say this is more of a violent drama than horror.

Even so, this movie is intense as the two main characters have to face some truths about themselves.

The acting is superb!

It is a bit of a slow burner, but if you like intense drama then this is certainly one to watch.

This disruptive, provocative flick is structured like a crime-drama - a suicidal single resident, a home intrusion, a violent sexual assault and off we go - but writer/star Jacqueline Wright and the director named Adrian Cruz never let anything settle, never let you feel that you've got it all figured out. They somehow manage to elevate their seemingly simple story and arguably even simpler production values into a multifaceted dissection of morality, power struggles and various implications of sexual deviance. Jacqueline Wright obviously knows which buttons to push, and she pushes them to save her life (or at least her career), but from some blatant dabblings into exploitation territory quite a few interesting thoughts emerge. The interplay between Wright and Brad Carter, who plays the youngest of the intruders, is at times stirring.

This art piece is definitely a drama.

No horror. No mystery. There is some solid Good Girls-ish humor.

And I did not like the movie until more than halfway through its duration.

Even then, the plausibility is unacceptable. The dialogue would be excellent for NOT that situation.
