ABATTOIR
released OUT NOW! 2016 | 18 | Blu-ray/dVd
A real estate journo who longs to cover the crime beat gets her chance when her family is brutally murdered. Researching the killings takes her to a nightmarish town that’s made a deal with the devil...
Saw franchise alum Darren Lynn Bousman chucks in all kinds of clashing influences – a bit of neo-noir, a dash of MR James, plus a pinch of grimy mid-’00s torture porn – but somehow, through sheer enthusiasm, it works. Messy, yes, but enjoyably creepy anyway.
