Rating: 1.5/5
Although the events depicted in this film are fictional, they are based on actual behaviors that are happening between consenting adults… right now.
A killer sets up a web show where he forced-feeds obese women until they die, letting people bet on what weight they’ll be when they die. He then uses the fat extracted from that woman to force-feed another woman… you get it
God, this movie sucks
The killer gets so many speeches about evolution and food — he gets maybe 1/4 of the movie to just ramble. His favorite video game as a child was Pac-Man — if that gives you any insight into the psychological depth this movie goes
They don’t do a terrible job with the web design/onscreen hacking stuff — this is the director of Lawnmower Man, after all 🙄 — but of course, they add so many dumb sound effects and voice feedback that it undermines all the effort
Somewhere in the movie’s premise is a conversation on the line between fetishism and dehumanization and how they may not be different things, but this movie wants to provoke you
The lead’s lesson is that he should stop dating horny thin women and start dating women who weigh more so they’ll be more grateful for his attention
I can’t tell how seriously the movie wants us to take it, but however you cut it, there’s just not enough there to encourage watching it
