Feed Me

I saw Feed Me at the British Horror Film Festival. I knew nothing about it going into it, and if I had known anything I wouldn't have bothered sitting through it.

This movie is terrible. All the characters are complete morons who make the dumbest decisions possible. The cannibal character throws up so many red flags I don't know how he hasn't already been caught or why anyone talks to him for more than 5 seconds before backing away politely. How is anyone fooled by his awful wig and accent is beyond me.

The acting is terrible, the script is terrible, the 'plot' is terrible.

I should have left before the end of this film, but I didn't for two reasons. 1 - Maybe it could have redeemed itself with some great ideas or a twist - but it didn't, and without seeing the whole thing, can you complain about it? 2 - If you walk out of a horror movie at a film festival everyone just assumes that you are offended by the gore. I happily watch extreme cinema, I'm fine with gore, so I'm not giving them the satisfaction of saying 'people walked out because they couldn't handle it' when in reality it's because its a pile of steaming garbage.

Why 3 stars and not 1? The practical effects were good. The gore when bodies are dismembered was done well. Lots of blood, some grisly flesh, that was pretty effective. But it doesn't make up for the rest of this crap.

I'd rather sacrifice a limb to a cannibal than have to watch this rubbish again.

If you enjoy horror movies then I recommend you give this one a chance!

I knew nothing about this going in... The dialogue and story were gripping.. And wonderful performances all round!!

There is gore, there is fun and ultimately horror.

This was a surprising breath of fresh air that really understands the genre and well executed!

And for some reason the reviews i have read on here are very negative to the point of absuridty, to those who left them may i suggest drinking less soy

However for the majority of normal horror loving people i think you will find this movie enjoyable!

8/10 A fun ride and looking forward to more from those involved!

I mean this in the least condescending way possible... I think that this was a really solid attempt at what they were going for. It was fun, different and entertaining. Granted, not without its flaws, but still should be appreciated for its positives.

I think that this was lacking slightly as far as the story went. We got some seemingly deep but ultimately superficial background on each of the characters and it was presented in such a way that it was nothing of real intrigue or relatability. The chain of events from scene to scene felt oddly disjointed and while the obvious and intended absurdist vibe was present I'm not sure it had enough to balance it out. I think a lot of that unfortunately had to do with the character of Lionel.

While you could definitely tell that the guy was a good actor, it was a little too silly in juxtaposition to the rest of the film to be looked at as a cohesive part of the production as a whole. He gave me much more theater vibes in general and the cartoon Texas accent was distracting (maybe not to someone from the UK, but to an American). The other lead actor did quite a good job with a surprisingly down to earth performance. I would be interested in seeing both of them in something else.

The movie looked quite nice with some actually beautiful shots, had some surprisingly good effects and a fun, absurd tone throughout. This is going to be a polarizing one for some people but I enjoyed it for the most part. 4.5 rounding up to a 5. Would recommend.

Well, lets be honest. When I first saw the rating 4.5 I was not encouraged to watch this film. But then I noticed the comedy genre and I thought what kind of comedy could it be! So I just decided to give it a watch.

I am impressed with the acting, it is exaggerated but it is also hilarious! The events are interesting and keeps you excited for what may happen next. It is not your typical Hollywood horror movie. If that is what you want you then don't waste your time with this one. If you are ready for something different, cheesy and new then you will be satisfied. I gave it 5 because I could have been better, but it is just ok for me.

Okay, now that that's done, on to this film. It is about a taboo subject. Indeed I'm even surprised how movies with graphic content like this even gets a release. It is no wonder that horrific crimes like the ones portrayed in all the movies I have mentioned above have become commonplace. Has society as a whole become de-humanized? It remains to be seen how the world can regain its humanity and strive for the end of crime and lasting world peace.

The movie is about a man who lost his wife through her bulimia. He became so frustrated with his wife's condition that he broke off all contact with her at a point. Later cops visited him and told him that his wife's body had been found and that she was dead. Grief-stricken he meets a weird guy at a drinking place who tells him that he will help him deal with his wife's sorrow by helping him depart from the world. The gives the man his card and tells him to call him again. Still suffering from guilt over his wife's death, the man finally decides to end his life by calling the man, meeting him again, signing a contract and handing him his mobile phone. What happens later is for you to see and find out.

This is also psychological drama on many levels. There are many viewpoints to consider. The direction is masterful and always in control. The acting and sound-effects are professional. However the movie has a fatal flaw in that like the movies I have mentioned above, this one is not worth a second viewing.
