Ravenous
I cought this one again the other day for the second time and forgot how much I liked it. It seemed even better on a second viewing. The oddly comedic tone and genuinely insane characters make this one a real good time.
And the cast...Guy Pierce, Robert Carlyle and Jeffrey Jones - brilliant You guys and gals seen this one?

Loved it. The whole thing is like some delirious haze. The cast was well chosen, and the story is absolutely chaotic, smart, and chilling. The result is a terrific horror movie that is easy-going and sprinkled with black humor.

I remember being hooked within the first ten minutes of the film, where Guy is dining with some folks and gets sick at the sight of meat. The way that it's filmed makes the viewer naucious, and though you don't know specifics, you have a pretty damn good clue as to what's about to pursue. **minor spoiler** I also thought the twists on our knowledge of who belonged to the "cult" was very well played.

Anyway... I remember the first time that I saw that movie... My friend (former) and I were completely stunned at it's grotesque humor and developement. When it was over, we turned of the film and burst out laughing. Very weird, but delightful experience.

Never been into this one. I can't stand Guy Pierce. Hopefully he won't ruin The Proposition for me when I get round to picking it up.
