It's sad that I refer to this as 'early' Eli Roth; since he's fairly young and not really known as a good director, but more so as a gory visionary (if that's the proper word).
One reason why I like this movie is because it is campy and was intended to be campy. Fun story, fun drama between the characters and and overabundance of gore. Usually, I'm not a big gore fan; I figure..what's the point? If I want gore I'll put a whole bunch of beef in a blender and watch that spin around for a bit.
I agree with both reviews...take caution before watching and just plan to be enjoyable entertained. I imagine this movie as a fun flick to watch with an open-minded group of friends when you're all just relaxing with some drinks and want to laugh and go "ewww".
Best part in the whole movie though is not from the theatrical cut, but from the "directors cut" cleaned up version (I think called the PG version as an extra on the DVD). Pure comedy.
