I have to say this movie was pretty sick lol. Good watch and just makes you think WTF there's actually people like that and doing that. Crazy and sad really.

I am unsure who this film is targeting for appeal. On one side, you've a film certainly leaning towards the "extreme" side of things. Yet it lacks the story to truly pull the viewer into its timidly taboo nature. on the other side, our "Hollywood horror" fans may also find this unappealing because it does cross boundaries the majority of films do not.

What you are left with is a mediocre film that has been done before, without adding anything to the genre.

5/10 because the acting was decent, a loose plot did exist despite initial feelings of the film, and the quality of gore / props was decent.

There's budget, as in doing a lot with no money and making a virtue of that, and then there's budget as in reaching high and failing thanks to an obvious lack of cash. With more resources, this could have been a serviceable, if lazy 'Hostel' rip-off. As it is, it's at times hilariously poor and otherwise downright dull.

The first thing that really alerts you to the level we're at here is the accent work from the main henchman - a couple of minutes in and were treated to a full Dick van Dyke number from John Dallesandro. I'm not sure why the (Irish) director decided this criminal family absolutely had to be British, but checking the actor's agent page he does have Cockney *and* "Victorian English" listed, whatever the latter might mean, so he's obviously confident in his own abilities. Perhaps there's a decent actor hiding behind these tortured vowels but it's impossible to tell from this performance.

The budget issues show with the sets. We're shown several of the audience members for these darkweb torture shows, supposedly millionaires, none of whom live in anything more impressive than a suburban townhouse. Look out for some more fun accent work from these guys, though - you can pass time waiting for the plot to advance by guessing where they're supposed to be from.

Most of the acting is fine, nothing spectacular but given what they're working with, it's hard to be overly critical. The negatives are mostly directorial or writing decisions, from odd scripting (perhaps there was something behind the decision to have the leader of the brutal murder gang call his father Daddy, I couldn't work it out though) to plot devices that seem to be thrown in to fix plot holes, each one making several more in the process. We see police involvement once, hinting at some larger conspiracy behind this horror, but that angle gets forgotten just as quickly in favour of pointless flashbacks to the abductee's night out. The police are paid off to not investigate missing women, but governments, banks and press don't bother looking into it? The technical processes involved in the broadcasts are managed by an abductee, who apparently can't access the wider web to get help because they've "limited what he can access" - they have the know-how to outfox him on that, but not actually manage the broadcast system themselves? There's a lot more but you get the idea.

In the end, the film nearly allows itself to become truly sickening - which wouldn't have particularly improved it but would at least have made it notable - but shies away from that in an apparent, incredibly presumptuous preparation for a sequel. Four years on and I think we're safe, but there is absolutely nothing to recommend this dire shock by numbers. Torture porn is a fairly dismal genre but the better examples at least try to provoke something beyond revulsion - admittedly, it's almost always an exploitation of the fear of the other, from 'Cannibal Holocaust' to the Hostel series, but this doesn't even seem interested in playing on the fear of walking home alone, or the attitudes of the rich to the lives of the poor - watching 'Red Room' and reflecting on this is a bit like watching a team you have no feelings about miss an open goal in a game you're not invested in. If you really need to see another scene in which women are tortured to death, have at it, but there are films that do that and also retain a coherent plot, so you'd have a better time watching one of those instead.

Remember going to Blockbuster back in the day and seeing something like, "Transmorphers" when the Transformers movie first came out? This is the grocery store brand version of Hostel.

If you want something really hard, this ain't it. And if you want something stupid to laugh at, this ain't that either. You could literally do anything else with your time other than waste it on this trash. Sit in silence and breathe or whatever. I'm sure you'd find more pleasure in your endocrine system functioning in apparent silence than spending your life on this.

Nothing besides my headline even needs to be said.

A numbskull movie with no redeeming qualities whatsoever , mysogynistic food for depraved idiots without empathy ! It's a waste of precious time ! You might get more insight by watching paint dry on your wall !

This will be a great movie for misogynistic psychopathic masochists. I have no idea why I watched it until the end because it was a complete waste. I guess I kept hoping that the ending would be meaningful but it wasn't. This movie in my opinion literally has no point. The director could have chosen any iiway to go but this way with the plot. I was very disappointed with this movie and ended up feeling uncomfortable after it was over.

Good Irish gore movie. Did not know that was even a thing. Does what it says on the tin.

Perverted people pay to see people get murdered online what they dont tell you this is a fact not fiction so be prepared for what happens the next time you go out.

Let me start off by saying that this film is surprisingly good with an impactful twist, and it's one of those foods that you want to get your snacks and drinks and get comfortable prior because you will not want to miss one second. This film is nothing short of excitement and brilliance as the cast and crew deliver a well developed film that grabs for your attention from the very start. Without giving away any spoilers, the directors creativity allows the mind to venture in and feel as though you are a part of the movie in an orthodox Way. I would recommend watching at least once to see how this movie affects you, but overall it was a pretty good job, and I would recommend it to fans of romance.
