Constantly on the hunt and suffering from hallucinations that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing women and savagely beating them to death. Meanwhile, a woman is luring men into a violent end, by way of her knife. Driven by the same force to make the opposite sex suffer, the killers’ fates intertwine. The two must face off in a battle to the death, in which they are forced to reveal the horrible truth behind their addiction to murder.
“Brutal” takes an interesting approach to its visuals, drawing heavy influence from Western “Grindhouse” films, using a filter to make the footage appear grainy, damaged, and with light and color fluctuations. Unfortunately, the visual styling ends up feeling misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other aspects of the “Grindhouse” genre. Despite trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematography is also a step above most “Grindhouse” productions, with Takashi Hirose proving he has talent behind the camera. Exterior shots to those taking place in small spaces are all competently framed, lit, and transition well. The decision to add an effect on top of the work hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of desperation to try to capture a certain type of nostalgia with the audience, instead of relying on its own strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can hurt a production so much.
The story of “Brutal” is simple but effective, it does attempt some sort of social commentary about the violent nature of men and women, but it does not offer enough depth into the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. The film does end on a strong note with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to gross some out, while giving others a chuckle. In spite of its simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfortable and enjoy the challenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard.
还行吧，就是温导强行给自己媳妇加戏……另外，变身那段竟然有点搞笑
女巫寻亲之会有别人替我爱你。旺达太厉害了，不能被打败，只能被劝退。墨西哥裔的宝贝女主名叫America，这真的不是刻意选的吗？一群人保护America，争抢America的超能力，啧啧啧啧啧。
一直蛮喜欢POP和管弦乐队结合这种演绎的
后脑勺隐隐作痛，故事很完整，但是套路也多，一开头就能猜出来梗。
这个拍成电视剧还可以，但是拍成这样的电影就真的太粗制滥造了，情节、演技烂成渣渣，在电影院里边看边翻白眼的那种烂。剧情上也都是烂梗，剃刀边缘+Sisters+加欧容拍过的那个寄生胎电影。还是感叹一下温子仁怎么拍出了个这个东西。
说回这个MV影片
碧梨的歌我听得不多，但在这样一个颇为无聊的夜晚，听了这样一场演唱会（mv？）还是很轻松惬意的。
虽然不是碧梨粉丝，但是很喜欢这种半记传类的风格。
温导说过不再执导恐怖片，真是说到做到。好有创意！
哈雷彗星比原版还要再上一个台阶
温子仁都打出品牌了吧 但是这部真的弱了很多
温子仁这次选的方向。。。不是纯灵异了。。如果不是纯灵异呢。。。这个就有太多东西经不起推敲了。。电影好的地方自然也有。构图摄影一脉相承的温子仁风格。很棒
😂我一直以为猩红女巫只是打酱油的…原来这么猛的吗？
又找到了恋爱的感觉！本以为这张专辑大不如上一张，但后知后觉非常耐听
第四阶段就是看女巫，奇异博士，王，蜘蛛侠四个人比赛谁捅的娄子大呗？？
“weaker softer taller”了呢?
娴熟的摄制工艺，好听的歌曲，精致的动漫和舞台演唱完美结合，高清的画质，在家来一场美美的视听享受。 8.3/408
比灵媒不好看多了，就知道应该不会那么简单的精神分裂，结尾有点突然
两个警察的表演业余到让人窒息…特别是黑婆娘的表情！我服了！三流又油！
刺激！都是“目睹异时空之事”，比soho猛多了
