Query: Sickness as art

When hollywood doesn't know how to capture an audience with anything intelligent or unique, they can always resort to the cheapest and easiest trick in the book. Just shock the audience. Show them something more repulsive or twisted than they've seen before. It's easy to do, and it always buys a few good reviews from people who think anything that shocks them must be art.The fight scenes in this movie are less imaginative than what you can see at home in Alias or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but they add ridiculous amounts of blood to please the small minded serial killer wannabes out there. No realism - just characters that never go into shock or bleed to death. This movie carries on Hollywood's seeming goal of desensitizing the public to any kind of atrocity - perhaps to help make the real atrocities in the world more pallatable for us. Don't see this film. I did, and it's a memory I wish I could erase.
