Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

trashgang This psycho-sexual horror isn't for all the horror buffs walking around because it doesn't contain straight horror but it tricks your mind into a depraved ride between humiliation and incest.Made by David Blythe who gave us Death Warmed Up (1984) before we ever heard of Peter Jackson was a well known kiwi exploitation director. And it shows because this is to be honest another exploitation flick. It do has nudity but one of that kind that isn't attractive and surely isn't for the easily offended. It contains some red stuff here and there and even that can shock people, just see the shower scene once the daughter discovers the blood of her mother. David didn't add gore in it but at the final we do have a slashing that is ultra gory. But many will have turned it off because it's such a weird flick, in the line of Eraserhead (1977°. I like those kind of flicks were they go into the mind of sick people like for example The Dead Girl (2006). I found the acting sublime by all. A supernatural sickie that takes you back to the old school exploitations. Full of weird shots and offending sexuality. A classic.Gore 1/5 Nudity 1/5 Effects 1/5 Story 3,5/5 Comedy 0/5

gavin6942 A supernatural horror film that explores the dark worlds of mental illness, incest, revenge and death...With all due respect to the writer and director, this film would best be handled if given to someone who had the ability and funding to fully realize the material. It is clear that a great idea is here and it is executed fairly well, but still leaves something to be desired.The story is decent, but the intent is clearly stylistic and visual. Some of the gore and flesh scenes call David Cronenberg to mind, and I would love to see how Cronenberg would have handled this script. Again, the germ of this story is strong, but it was not given the soil and nutrients needed to fully blossom into a mature elm.I neither recommend this film or ask you to steer clear -- just know that what you are witnessing is a director whose time has not yet come (but may soon).

britnystarr This movie was absolutely positively terrible. I would have rather watched the Human Centipede ten times in a row than have watched this movie for even five minutes (and that is saying something because the Human Centipede was a pretty terrible movie also). There was no gore in whatever awful version I downloaded and I could not follow it at all. Some people said you need to be artsy or whatever to watch this, no you just have to be really high or as crazy as the bitch in the movie. If you ever decide you want to watch this, do yourself a favor, and go find a gun make sure that it is loaded put it up to your head and please pull the trigger that would be more fun than sitting through that horrific thing that is unfortunately called a movie. :)

Bloodwank Delving into the darkest chasms that family ties can hold, Wound is quite an experience. It centers on Susan, a deeply troubled young lady who commits a purgative (and gruesome) act of violence at the outset, but then finds herself plagued by her lost daughter and cannot escape her demons. To say more would be spoiling things, suffice to say that Wound has a good deal of the Lynchian to it, though Lynch never got this wild. Up front sexual perversion and several sequences of strikingly grotesque imagery mixed into a patchy structure of fantastical psycho-drama, in a mostly ordinary setting with low fi production values, this is definitely going to be quite an audience divider. It's the second horror from director David Blyth, after Death Warmed Up (which I haven't seen) but the long gap between that film and this hardly shows, there's a punky energy and ferocious derangement here that feels pleasingly fresh. Fearless performances keep things intense, Kate O'Rourke and Te Kaea Beri do fine work as mother Susan and daughter Tanya respectively, both thrown into some seriously twisted situations and they perform with gusto, holding the film together despite its fractured structure. Campbell Cooley and Brendan Gregory hold up the male side of things, the former suitably creepy as an S&M master. Men do not by and large come off well in this one, but then neither does almost anyone, this isn't trying to be an even handed film or even one of rounded characters but more of a nightmare trip and in that respect it does pretty well. A little more of the ordinary would have helped though, things start to get a little exhausting and more could have been done to offset the strangeness. Then on the other hand, some of the leafy suburban New Zealand locales do provide a bit of grounding to things. The film also feels a little short, though it gets its point across, such as I thought its point to be, things are somewhat underdeveloped, there's fascinating potential in the characters and themes that as the end credits roll is left to the audiences imagination. Of course its equally possible that repeat viewings would make everything clearer, but I think the complaint still stands. Finally, the gore effects show their budget, but then this is perhaps for the best. An outcry and attempt to ban this one by NZ moral campaigners foundered at the sight of its, well, not 100% convincing effects, so perhaps they are why the film wasn't locked away. Despite these complaints, I had a fine time with this one, it's a little tricky to fully recommend as its sure to rub a good deal up the wrong way, but if you can stand surreal ambition, grim perversion and low brow splatter fused in a disturbed and slightly shonky hybrid, this will be a film for you.
