Constantly on the hunt and suffering from hallucinations that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing women and savagely beating them to death. Meanwhile, a woman is luring men into a violent end, by way of her knife. Driven by the same force to make the opposite sex suffer, the killers’ fates intertwine. The two must face off in a battle to the death, in which they are forced to reveal the horrible truth behind their addiction to murder.
“Brutal” takes an interesting approach to its visuals, drawing heavy influence from Western “Grindhouse” films, using a filter to make the footage appear grainy, damaged, and with light and color fluctuations. Unfortunately, the visual styling ends up feeling misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other aspects of the “Grindhouse” genre. Despite trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematography is also a step above most “Grindhouse” productions, with Takashi Hirose proving he has talent behind the camera. Exterior shots to those taking place in small spaces are all competently framed, lit, and transition well. The decision to add an effect on top of the work hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of desperation to try to capture a certain type of nostalgia with the audience, instead of relying on its own strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can hurt a production so much.
The story of “Brutal” is simple but effective, it does attempt some sort of social commentary about the violent nature of men and women, but it does not offer enough depth into the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. The film does end on a strong note with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to gross some out, while giving others a chuckle. In spite of its simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfortable and enjoy the challenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard.
被Erick狠狠蛊到了！换我我也动心！他太可爱了！
快跑。我会找到你的。
7.5/10 Má vlast and group masturbation
女巫换装秀以及欧洲原野风光摄影，外加一点看似高级，内核却空洞的女性主义，以及克尔凯郭尔的存在主义。一言以蔽之，不如咱的《聊斋》。
是在剪辑里看见小奶狗所以才找来这部电影看的，质感很好，故事很简单，人物的时间成长线也没有很复杂，没有惊艳，也没有错误，从不错到推荐，是因为超撩的小奶狗，他真的好可爱啊！
演员，摄影，故事完美。停在胜利的晚宴上足以，根本不需要过多的描述后面的内容。
都说好的喜剧剥开了是悲剧，那历史片何尝不是满屏情欲，好的恐怖片何尝不是恶之花烂漫洋溢着文艺
恐怖片中的文艺片，文艺片中的恐怖片。但无论以哪个标准来衡量，都挺空洞的……
这么多年过去，就像我们依然在讨论朱迪福斯特说的，最好的男演员身上的脆弱感到底是什么。那种脆弱感就像女巫每次变换成不同人类时，眼睛里流露出的迷茫和怜悯，关于这个身份，这个我到底是天生的，还是被塑造的，被驯服的？你，我，他，女人，男人，我们，你们，到底什么是相同的，什么是不同的？
多少人因为害怕被荼毒，而选择深柜结婚生子，就有多少家庭悲剧。
女巫人生，也没什么不同。一样的痛苦，悲伤，堕入六道轮回。
呃。过度文艺了卧槽。《羊崽》女主选片子的眼光咋都这么………奇特
故事背景太压抑了，不过我到尾也没看明白为什么别墅里面的所有人都要被杀啊？
就有点像恶魔版的《一条狗的使命》？画面清丽鲜活富有生命力，像风景大片。片子里一半在掏肠子喝生血一半在为爱鼓掌，我一个德州电锯毫无感觉的人居然开始生理不适，手里的薯条顿时不香了
（夸下这片里的打光，很有氛围，以及黑白电视放出的激烈交缠，代入感很强。
这个前面看的时候虽然没有get到颜值，但是越看越好看，剧情好。而且我超喜欢他两的眼神，题材也好。
大背景和情节还是在线的。罗伯特你个渣男，竟然还真被掰弯，作为警察，不知道自己被跟踪了就算了，还被拍下了。艾瑞克要自由，什么局都赶去，大学教授又如何，形如蝼蚁。尼玛，未婚妻怎么办啊！
被预告片吸引过来，却没看懂……我只是一个「普通」的恐怖片爱好者，想看一个讲女巫的恐怖片……但它并不是……它是泰伦斯·马力克喝醉后走错片场了……
「半個國家都藏有秘密」強權給每個人上了原罪相關的壓迫檔案，強權卻才是最大的原罪始作俑者，像不像當下太陽照常升起的地方
最棒的还是中间那段派对时间。那个录像带那里我真的很好奇，为什么会是“深柜”。这让政治战争变成了内部战争。🙃🙃🙃扣一星
