not from hell but in hell

The country that the movie from hell tells is a hell in itself. . These poor people are homeless, threatened, discriminated against and even killed everywhere. .

No one will pity them, even the bar's shop assistant can beat and scold them at will. "No one is born a prostitute". To survive in hell can only choose what they hate most. .

Not only contempt and even persecution by the upper classes, but even the lowest social class like them can abuse, beat and scold at will.

"Jack the Ripper" is an unsolved historical case. Although modern DNA has proved who may be the murderer, it cannot explain why a barber has a deep knowledge of human anatomy.

This film is not about who is the murderer, but more about how ugly the British society at that time was - "I think it should be foreigners, such as Indians or...Jews".

    Mainly because I like Heather Graham, even more than Johnny Depp. I like her cat-like expression in "Kill Me Gentle", and I also like her frowning expression in "Grey’s Trouble". It makes me always or forget, the love of pity...

    The plot is good and the director is okay but the religious theme is depressing...

    Mary Kelly: It's alright, darling. You don't have to pay for your food.
