Plank Face

Good start but went down right from where it begins to be interesting. No story and too many flaws makes this film trash. I was disappointed hoping something will be interesting to come up but it goes worst as the film proceeds. It was a waste of time invested. 4/10.

At the start, a couple is parked by the side of a road in a forested area, and they decide they want to get frisky. After all, from a fire tower they didn't see anyone for miles around. Bad decision. Later a couple are headed into the forest to camp out. They are assaulted, and the man winds up in a primitive cabin. There are three women inside. A grandmother type, a mother type and a younger woman. The younger woman wears a Halloween type bunny mask. They are not very coherent and they hammer the point that he is not going to escape. It is a scenario that they are very feral, living with some interesting culinary habits. They are not particularly verbal. The man, Max, seems to understand that he is not going to go anywhere, no matter how circumstances may change. And this is where I feel the movie lost its way. For me, it fell flat, and they threw in the gross factor.

Thought it was a slasher/violence+horror movie. But guess not. Only the first few minutes of the movie had some killing/torture, then some when the movie is about to conclude. Everything was so kinky. Full frontal nudity from both male and females, graphic and disturbing sex scenes. Not so much to see. Just nude cannibals and graphic sex. Maybe that was what the movie wanted us to see. Pornography would be the best word to be used to describe this movie. Imagine you are a man and you have three females around you and one day they remove their clothes in front of you (not in this one). Don't know why the rating is so low, doesn't deserve all the hate. Not so many movies can be so graphic and sexually explicit like this one these days.

I got burned, you don't get burned. It's a 2016 horror movie. The acting is so amateur that you can see it as soon as you open the movie. Imdb rating is very high compared to this movie. In the movie, there are cannibals living in the forest, just like their counterparts. They are adopting someone. There is no limit to sexuality and nudity. I usually have incompatibility with Scandinavian films. I thought the movie was the movie of those regions, but it was American made. There was a similar mask in the movie cub - werb.

As Descartes opined, man (and thus his mores) is essentially the sum of his past experiences. Plank Face is premised on whether a traumatic experience wipe out that person and and more pertinently his mores. Indie director Scott Schirmer poses this question in a well paced suspenceful admospheric woodlands setting, done largely through excellent cinematography using very little dialogue (reminiscent of Hagazussa). The suspense is retained by the question remaining open to the very end. The traumatic event could have been counted over a great period of time which would have added Greater realized, but all and all, a great film done on a lower than $ 10 000 budget.
