. and you can look at that statement in different way and by the way . first of all and it a mess because of all the gruesome and extremely violent scene . your wild imagination doesn not even come close to some of the explicitly show scene here . entire part of this movie be just plain sick and disgust and offensive and brutal and they bring you close to puke your gut out . now and i love horror movie and i be very pro violence and but i do think that it have to lead somewhere . be that too much to ask . cradle of fear be just a series of utterly sick and twisted thought . the movie contain out of four separate chapter connect by a wraparound story . this result in endless showing of torture and murder and sickness only to find out that the victim have something in common . not very informative and if you ask me . and yet it have to be say the basic plot idea surely have potential . it about a cannibalistic hypnotist who make a deal with the devil himself to avenge himself and cause misery and death to everyone who be involve in his trial . personally and i think that be an interesting topic and so they should have focus on that a little more instead of want to create the most disgusting movie ever . secondly and the whole production of this movie be a mess . they do not have much of a budget and they spend it all on fake blood and gut . ton of it . the acting performance be a joke and some of the bad i have ever see . any other special effect besides the make up look very amateurish ( like that attempt to a realistic car crash and for example ) . there no tension or atmosphere to detect anywhere . not even an attempt to build up one . cradle of fear be a failure and a missed opportunity to say the least . with the presence of death metal icon danni filth ( from the band cradle of filth . get the link . ) this movie be obviously only meant for the eye of twisted teenager who try to be controversial . troubled girl and boy who take pleasure in worry their parent by watch crap like this . and then people keep complain that the amount of suicide and juvenile delinquency be increase . bah . i can imagine that this movie can cause a lot of damage when youre easily influence or dispose of an unstable mind . for every self respect horror fan and this movie be an insult .
