Unspeakable

I have watched Unspeakable numerous times, as every opportunity I get I try to share it with those that have not been introduced to the sick, twisted world the film presents. Strangely enough, though, this is a world we all live in everyday. The film just presents it on a darker level. It is effective, creepy, and downright disturbing. Director Chad Ferrin has created a dark and sinister story revolving around a man whose life is turned upside down after an accident claims the life of his daughter and permanently disables his wife. As he sinks deeper into his depression, he begins a descent into madness that eventually drives him to murder. Sure, its been done to death, several times over. BUT NEVER LIKE THIS! Kudos to Troma for putting this out to the unsuspecting world. And BRAVO, Mr. Ferrin. I cannot wait to see what you have on tap for your follow up to this incredibly affecting film.

I really, really wish I had left this on the shelf. I watched it with a group of friends. We're all broadminded people, several of us are huge horror fans. But this left us all shaken and disgusted. The film seems to have no purpose, merely breaking taboos for their own sakes. There's defecation, murder, implied incest, the abuse of a catatonic woman and I won't go on because I really wish that I could erase all trace of this film from my memory. The plot (man on a killing spree following the death of his daughter) seems utterly ignored in the rush to shock the viewer. It's nauseating, confusing, jumbled and senseless. But if you dig being revolted, this is the film for you.

I love Horror ,thrillers and Gore but this movie is another beast altogether. If you're unfamiliar with Troma this will change your DNA and leave you in such a state of shock you'll need the paddles to revive you lol The nursing home/hospital scene alone will ruin you for life,theres not enough bleach to clean your eyes It's so so very bad that you just have to see it to say you've seen it And once you see it you cannot unsee it And you will never forget it lol

I cannot believe that this is a film that I did not like. . . I usually find that I am open minded about all sorts of stuff. . . but this flick is just, well, bad.

I could deal with the subject matter if the script and story were better. I could deal with the acting if the camera work was better or if the characters were better established. . . I think it mostly boils down to script and direction though.

it was just bad.

i want to give this the lowest rating, but . . . I don't believe in that, at least this guy got off his tail to make a movie. . . so he gets four stars (just above the average rating which this has so far)

Chad Ferrin's Unspeakable is darker fare than the usual Troma output. Depressing and grisly, with an overall nasty atmosphere throughout. Certainly a movie without much light.

So, dark in tone. But there are some comedic Troma-like qualities to it. Mostly from Timothy Muskatell's Barry A. Carter, a sick perverted lowlife home nurse, who abuses his crippled patient (Muskatell also plays a dual roll as a ridiculous drug dealer, later in the film)

Unspeakable is quite an uneasy watch. But somehow that's what I like about it.

A twisted psychological slasher. Great soundtrack too.
