Generally, old American horror films are the three major selling points of pornography, violence and blood, and this film is no exception. Although the nude scenes in the first half of the film are always accompanied by eerie music, I can't help but focus on the choppy waves, almost forgetting the purpose of the film to scare people. Fortunately, the intense and thrilling escape plot in the second half and the narrative of the origin of the whole story are both reasonable and exciting, which made my evaluation and expectations of it have increased.
In fact, the most terrifying part of the film is not the brutal lynchings, nor the blood splashing around. Although they are all unavoidably displayed, they look like an immature little girl. It is also necessary to cover up so that no one can see it. The only scary thing is that the Japanese girl Miko was burned half of her face by the laser, and her eyeballs fell out. The male protagonist Paxton had to use scissors to cut out the long eyeballs. So, in my opinion, its psychological level of horror is not as suspenseful and thriller as that of Japan and South Korea, and its blood is not as direct as "Chainsaw". But I like the film's explanation of the existence of the "Elite Hunt" organization, which is the reason for this series of horrific experiences.
It was a remote and remote town in Slovakia, with open clouds of beauties. It seemed like a backpacker's paradise, but it was actually full of riots and filth. The residents there have an innate hatred for foreigners, especially Americans, and the "elite hunt" came into being. The travelers became the commodities sold by the inn for the rich and high-ranking people in this country to use extreme cruelty. Perverted methods of killing and abusing at will. A horror film that can tell the story in a convincing, coherent and overly natural way, I think is really valuable. Another laudable point is that after the film changed from the characters of all living beings to Paxton alone, it changed the previous looseness and nudity, and became tight rhythm and frequent conflicts, especially those who escaped the siege. Enjoyable.
Some critics said that "Humanskin Inn" is supposed to "scare bloodthirsty die-hard horror fans", and also warned the audience that the film "uses all the torture methods you can think of that make life worse than death, and use all the brutal and crazy things you can think of." Killing, the extremely realistic shooting method makes people feel chills from the bottom of their hearts, audiences with limited psychological capacity, it is best not to take risks!" I don't know if my nerves are naturally larger, or I have been sharpened by many horror films. , Anyway, watching this movie feels like eating an untested watermelon, although it can be eaten, but this melon is not too sweet.
It is reported that the film was enthusiastically encouraged and supported by Quentin. Since there is this madman's participation, then the timid audience should not take what I said above too seriously, because it is very likely that my horror standards are really different from ordinary people, hehe!
