Gnaw

A small observation about the merits of this film and these reviews.....

ALL FIVE of the preceding posts are from single posting members (in the UK)and were all posted within two weeks of each other.

What? Did a memo go out to the entire movie cast to post positive reviews on IMDb?

Did someone really "like this film so much that she saw it several times and recommended it to several of her friends"?

Night of the living dead it ain't

For shame.

Six dumb, stereotypical friends go to the English Countryside for some drinking, sex and other activities. So, what's with the old lady and all the meat they've been getting? Oh, and look out for a bloodthirsty cannibal with a sheep skin covered mask.

"Eden Log", I congratulate you: you are no longer the worst horror flick I've seen this year. A poor attempt at doing a gory, tongue in cheek cannibal/slasher flick, "Gnaw" is a film that desperately wants to be a British answer to the "Wrong Turn" and "Hostel" films, as well as a British "Texas Chainsaw Massacre." That's fine and all, except it lacks the fun 70's/80's horror throwback aspect of the "Wrong Turn" flicks, as well as the Black Humor and Social Commentary of the "Hostel" movies and the choking atmosphere and claustrophobia of "Chainsaw." Hell, there's already a British answer to "Chainsaw"-it's called "Raw Meat", and it's much better than this movie.

It also doesn't help that everything else falls flat. The Black Humor of the film is neither clever or interesting, while the attempts at more serious, dramatic moments are laughable at best. Plus, while there's plenty of gore, it's all so lethargic and monotonous-there's no energy to any of the violence or viscera on display, and it's a bore to sit through. Add to an twist so predictable it would be insulting to call it a twist, as well as an annoying score and poor acting, and you get a really bad horror flick that borders on unwatchable.

On the plus side, at least the killer has a unique mask. In the end though, "Gnaw" isn't worth your time or consideration. For a better British Slasher flick, see Christopher Smith's movies "Creep" and the satirical "Severance" instead of this. For a better British Cannibal flick, see the aforementioned "Raw Meat" instead of this. Trust me, you're better off doing that.

I love British Horror's, and i was really looking forward to this film, but looking at the acting, well, i was disgusted with it. I have not seen such dry acting in a long time until now. The characters were predictable, bland, and most of all annoying. I wish they had better deaths, oh yes, and they were tension and gore free also. The most gore seen was with a pair of pliers and a tongue. The main Villain, wore a creepy hooded cloak, with an animal as a mask type thing (you'll just have to see it) He did look quite creepy i guess. Also what annoyed me with this film, was the final scene, there was no relationship shown between the two cannibals of this movie, and the final scene was way too quick and unsatisfying. They could of done a lot more with this movie, with the characters, the atmosphere and location. It was a real shame. If your after a lot of tension and gore, DO NOT watch this film.

Gnaw otherwise known as Cannibal Kitchen was pretty much doomed from the start for me. For a start it's UK cinema and I don't have the habit of enjoying British stuff very often, second it's cannibal themed and thats a sub-genre I rarely appreciate.

It tells the usual story of a group of 20 somethings who go away together for a weekend of debauchery only to run foul of a psychotic butcher who turns his victims into meals.

The most alarming thing here is the lack of originality. People turn up, get picked off one by one, screaming, stabbing and the obligatory final girl type character. We've seen it so many times that any aspiring filmmaker should surely think twice before releasing such generic garbage like Gnaw.

It has nothing going for it at all. It had one single "Twist" which I predicted within the first quarter of the film. It's just so paint by numbers it made my head hurt.

If you aren't going to try then why even make the movie?

The Good:

Nope

The Bad:

Devoid of originality

Predictible nonsense

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

I'm starting a #leavecatsaloneinmovies hashtag, this has to stop!

Common going away with your friends supplies must include pregnancy tests

Pretty boring horror.

• Little to no atmosphere - No background story whatsoever - Useless mask on killer - Very unoriginal - No/crappy music

The acting was not bad and the film quality was great.. Just wish they had done something worthwhile with it..

I love horror movies, especially ones about serial killers and cannibals, but sadly there are not a lot out there that are any good. I fell for the "rave reviews" about this movie, I have to say they did a pretty good job marketing it. And it doesn't look like a crappy camcorder movie either, it actually looks like a quality movie.. Sadly there's nothing special about this and all in all it's just boring. Sorry for you actors and filmmakers, but I have to advice people to not waste time on this movie.

All the UK reviews are fake.
