Review of Ravenous (1999) by Shaun T — 04 May 2008
Disturbing is about the best word to describe this movie. That and extremely entertaining.
The blood and gore are pretty extreme (it's about cannibalism after all) but the way it's shot and done makes it fun to watch. That didn't even sound right...
The soundtrack sounds completely out of place, but still fits so perfectly, it's impossible to describe without just watching the movie yourself.
I found myself laughing out loud for the first 10 minutes of the movie, then was completely enthralled for the rest of the movie. It really never lets up.
The humor is very dark and tough to get, but the last few minutes are pretty funny, depending on how you look at them.
It has a few predictable twists and turns, but makes up for it by adding in some that you never see coming.
My new favorite movie line: "He was licking me!" Classic.
