The first full feature by director Jimmy Weber and it's one that will stick to your mind. the opening sequence is great, the editing and the graphics, it immediately got my attention. Slowly you get into the story and the first minutes nothing really is going on. Except for Novella (Meggie Maddock) who got some trouble with her thumb. It's bleeding. After going through so many auditions she's fed up and starts sucking her thumb and trouble comes in.

I can understand that some horror geeks won't going to like this flick because it do takes a while before the nastiness comes in. It's really going into the character of Novella and seeing how she's going on with her nasty habits of biting. Being used and abused (porn industry) she's becoming sick doesn't admit it and falls in love with her schrink.

Here and there you do get rewarded with gore. Overall I found it okay but to say it's one for the gorehounds no therefore I can't agree. This one just goes deep into the mind of Novella. It will stick to your mind, that I can tell.

It's a low budget b-movie with mediocre acting. But what it has in it's favor is decent sfx and a story that is a bit more complex than I was expecting. It's worth a watch, but I don't think it will make anyone's top ten horror flicks. In a way it's not even horror, but more of a drama about rejection and self-destruction.

5 of 10. Had the post-credit scene happened at the end of the film, I'd give it another point. After a film like this, however, it's asking a lot for people to stick around through the credits and the film really needs some form of release after grueling gore and tension.

The main problem is that the writer really needed a skilled director rather than serving as both. While the actors did what they could with the script, the casting for several of the key characters was off and could have easily been switched.

The other part of it that wasn't setup well was the psychological element. Too often, it felt like unbelievably stupid characters rather than a mental disorder.

It's not a B-film because of the special FX, which was very believable and didn't look cheap. It's B because of the writing/directing that made many scenes feel like TV soap opera melodrama, unlike a recent smoother, more finished blood-gore film Julia (2014).

I didn't know what to expect from this film. I had seen the title and the synopsis - no reviews.

It was surprising from the start. A fresh style rather than the moody kick-off many horror films have. It brought you into the character's rather false and fluffy life, and that of many others trying to make it in Hollywood.

The acting is suburb by all of the case who portrayed their respective characters well - believably.

My only criticism of the film is that it should have had more of an explanation of why the main character, Novella McClure, develops the way she does. we have a clue that it is because she becomes stressed, but there wasn't much of a back story.

I felt for the character as she went through her ups and downs.

I don't think this film is a 'classic' but it makes a change from dark and moody horrors.

So I'm a huge fan of horror/gore films always have been my whole life but i usually watch older 80s horror films and I was doing some research on newer movies to see if there's anything still good out there and I read a review on this And didn't know how I felt because it just sounded odd. So I decided I'd give it a shot and Let me tell you this is one hell of a movie I've never seen anything like it. It's not like the movies I usually watch but something about it just got to me and I was like damn this is wild. So if your a horror/gore fan trying to see something wild. I'd say this is worth the watch
