Post Re: Raw
A bit of a disappointment, sadly. It is handsomely crafted in regard to cinematography, music, etc., and it definitely has an unexpected, interesting sympathy for its heroine and her sister and their...unusual appetites, but it rather bored me. It is never suspenseful or involving; just very measured with occasional moments of body-horror gore. And because it did not draw me in, I cannot say I was ever notably moved or scared or intrigued by the apparent symbolic depth critics found "stunning" and "brilliant."

This was solid. Not particularly scary, but quite disturbing and gruesome at times. The main characters weren't that engaging though, especially the lead girl.

It's good but nothing special. The ending was intriguing though.

7/10 ( B )
