..deliciously good March 19, 2006

love this movie, its twisted, sick story and lots of blood with a great cast of characters and shot at a great locale
 Well, how unfortunate...... March 4, 2006

This actually had alot of promise to it. But sadly, bad acting and a stupid screenplay ruined what could have been a great horror movie. David Arquette also ruined it with his appearance as well. What really got to me was this: that the villain in the movie got powers from eating the flesh of other people. This is a highly unrealistic idea. The villain should've just been a vampire instead!
 Overlooked Cult Classic March 2, 2006
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
The first time I saw "Ravenous" I wasn't sure what I had gotten my teeth into, but by the end of the film, I realized this under-rated and overlooked film was going to be an instant cult classic. Guy Pearce underplays his role perfectly, Jeffrey Jones does very well in support, and Robert Carlyle is evil frontier sophistication incarnate. And the theme music stays in your head. The problem is, how to approach your friends about it: "Hey, why don't you come over for dinner, and we can watch this great movie on cannibalism!" Yeah, right. The trick is, don't tell them what the subject matter is, and by the time they figure it out, they will be hooked on the movie, too. Everyone I have tried this approach with have eventually gone out and purchased the DVD for their own collections. About the only disturbing thing is, every time I see this movie, I feel the urge to go to Black Angus for a Rib-eye, Medium Rare. Coincidence?

I cannot understand how "Ravenous" managed to slip under the radar. This is a great movie. It's a backwoods cannibal movie, a western, and a "Deliverance"-esque survival tale all wrapped up into one weird film. The performances are excellent, the soundtrack is suitably creepy, it doesn't skimp on the gore and it's really funny at the same time. br /br /Great black humor / horror hybrid. Pick it up.
THE ULTIMATE TABOO November 13, 2005
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This one is about breaking man's ultimate taboo - eating his own species. The theme itself is rather disturbing and Antonia Bird made her film that way so it will give you creeps. The first scenes where Guy Pearce's character is lying under a pile of blood-dripping corpses and then when he's at dinner and everybody is eating steak munching terribly is getting you in a right mood. br /The distant fort, mountains and forests of Northern California give you the sensation of absolute isolation, abandonment and a feeling that there's nowhere to run, that characters are helpless in this wicked environment. So when a villain appears things get very complicated... br /The movie has an outstanding cast, Antonia Bird created a perfect amosphere for this kind of a film, there are many frightening scenes that will give you shivers - for example the one with an ambush or the one when Jeremy Davies cries: "He was licking me!" br /The soundtrack made by Michael Nyman and "Blur"'s Damon Albarn is just great, probably one of the best soundtracks ever. Their music, scary and funny at the same time will make you eyes widen and your jaw drop during the most disturbing scenes. You will be laughing nervously. br /Anyway this movie won't leave you indifferent, watch it if you haven't already and buy it if you haven't. This is a great entertainment, great fun and great scare - never a disappointment. br /
