I'm not sure what the budget was on this movie but I really hope it makes piles of cash, showing that there is an audience that craves more extreme movie experiences. I will be genuinely depressed if this movie fails to connect with a larger audience.

If it's just violent for no reason then they will hate it but if it is part of the story that's fine
@HorrorParadise
Күн бұрын
It’s not violent in that sense. But maybe for a few minutes. It’s a bit hard to stomach but not because body horror. It’s in the last act. I would say it’s very violent in the sense the body horror isn’t holding back. You get puss. You get things coming outta holes that shouldn’t. Decaying. Body parts developing and dropping out of other body parts. Sprays of blood like Evil Dead 2013. You know how body horror typically accumulates in a monster appearing so there’s that. It’s over the top with some of it like Cronenberg’s horror films or Braindead aka Dead Alive.
