you know woman picture of old tragic love story and soft focus camera work and weepy score . well and the tradition be alive and well in this boring tale from ulli lommel . base on a true story of a man who eat another man because he meet on the internet ( be it consensual . be it murder . ) and diary of a cannibal trade the detail to modern california love . it try to combine horror and romance and but it just fall flat on both count . a a horror film and it too slow and not gory enough and plus it give all the money shot too early . we know what go to happen and see the same shot over and over again . the way the story be structure and the girl isn not drive to madness or secretly already mad . she just do what she do and seem bore with the whole deal . a a romance and it too gory and disturbing and plus the romance part really isn not show well . they meet and theyre both relieve the other be cute and walk around on the shore and blammo . that mean love . there just no resonance to it . a silly subplot or twist also fail and a do the irritate flashback way the story be tell . the performance be also pretty terrible and with the exception of jillian swanson who do a nice job a noelle . and dig the epilogue with the faux mulder and scully who be interrogate her . romance and horror can work just look at dellamorte dellamore or even return of the living dead 3. just do not look at diary of a cannibal .
