Grotesque is a 2009 japanese film that tells the story of a man who kidnaps a couple and tortures them for his sheer excitement. He promises to let them go if they can make his reach his peak of happiness and they do. This is where you think the film is going to get better for the couple. The man is actually a doctor and tells them he will treat their wounds, and he does but will he really let them leave?
I liked this movie it was a very interesting movie and the special effects were top notch. The only problem I had was that the plot is very little it's basically just a torture movie with a mild story. But other then that this is a good movie. The villain is fantastic you really believe that he is a twisted person and that makes this movie really believable. Like a said the effects are top notch and are fantastic they are amazing.
Like I said though there isn't a huge plot, there is some but it's not something you really need to think about and I think that that hurts the movie a little. Another thing that hurt it was the marketing of the film they play it off as if it is the sickest film of all time and that it got banned in the U.K, but it's really not bad at all. But that also lead me to have a certain idea on what I thought this movie was going to be like.
Overall this is an okay movie, if your into extreme shockers then check it out. If your not really into that sort of thing then I would not really recommend it because it doesn't really have anything to appeal to the average horror fan. I would give this a 6/10. It's got fantastic special effects but the story fall a little flat.
