Constantly on the hunt and suffering from hallucinations that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing women and savagely beating them to death. Meanwhile, a woman is luring men into a violent end, by way of her knife. Driven by the same force to make the opposite sex suffer, the killers’ fates intertwine. The two must face off in a battle to the death, in which they are forced to reveal the horrible truth behind their addiction to murder.
“Brutal” takes an interesting approach to its visuals, drawing heavy influence from Western “Grindhouse” films, using a filter to make the footage appear grainy, damaged, and with light and color fluctuations. Unfortunately, the visual styling ends up feeling misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other aspects of the “Grindhouse” genre. Despite trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematography is also a step above most “Grindhouse” productions, with Takashi Hirose proving he has talent behind the camera. Exterior shots to those taking place in small spaces are all competently framed, lit, and transition well. The decision to add an effect on top of the work hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of desperation to try to capture a certain type of nostalgia with the audience, instead of relying on its own strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can hurt a production so much.
The story of “Brutal” is simple but effective, it does attempt some sort of social commentary about the violent nature of men and women, but it does not offer enough depth into the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. The film does end on a strong note with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to gross some out, while giving others a chuckle. In spite of its simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfortable and enjoy the challenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard.
不是说是cult片就能得高分，各种混炖且不知所云真的让人一头雾水，我也算一口气把1234看完了，风格还是挺统一的——统一的不知所云。确实不明白到底要表达个什么东西，还是说只是为了拍而拍，为了好耍、血腥、另类而拍，原谅我欣赏无能～
被新鬼影实录伤透了心，还好致命录像带还是内个味倍感欣慰。印尼老师的那个机器人的故事好喜欢啊！有血有肉有情有义，甚至还有一点感动。
还行，前两个的故事的氛围非常好
串场的故事实在是占比太少了，而且主线零散；其实最想说的第三个故事，虽然整体画风上非常的现代与彩色化，但我觉得它在伪纪录的镜头切换上是代入感最强的，而且将那种触摸劣质机械收音设备的质感做出来了，其余三个故事中规中矩，并没有很大的突破点
1.新聞工作者真的很危險。 2.守靈夜驚魂。 3.變態醫生和他的戰爭機器人。 4.吸血鬼的復仇。 5.血の錄像帶。 總體來說：1>3>2>5>4
播新闻播到吐🤮，哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈～这是个搞笑片吧
以至于现在就记得这几个故事了
由于VHS3拍的是稀巴烂，所以这片无论如何肯定是比上一部强的，不过这也说明不了什么就是…印尼哥的段落显然是最有趣的（不过和VHS2比差的就远了），其他段落的话，第一段倒有点80-90年代的怪异campy风，第二段是真的乏善可陈（简直是冷笑话…），第四段其实还算有趣，但是最后shit hits the fan部分太短、收的也太仓促了。最后，每次搞串联的中心段落都太一般了…
几个故事都还不错，后面二个故事铺垫要长一点，不过主线和前几部没什么联系，也没后续彩蛋，更像一部衍生电影
分数：71
尼玛除了第三个故事挺好，其余都是无用的片段！
我觉得很带劲，第一、二、三个故事都很好，很有氛围，但是第四个看得有点云里雾里的……打一星的我觉得不至于吧……
我最爱的伪纪录cult片回归了，这部灵异超自然元素少了很多，除了第二个故事棺材打开前相当有感觉，其余的更多是血浆残肢屠杀系列。
相当值得一看的恐怖片，机械姑娘的故事很有《弗兰肯斯坦的军团》的味道。
[视]R血，shudder流媒体。超出预期，四个故事，推荐前三个，前两个故事铺垫，第三个故事高潮
说实话。。。为什么有点boring。。点子也太没新意了吧！！！感觉像拉屎的时候一拍脑袋想出来的然后就拍成了电影。鼠人一看就知道那俩等下要进去被干掉，守灵那个一看就知道晚上要爬起来吃人。创意性上相比之前的真的大打折扣。
中间故事还行的，主线太莫名其妙了，这次真不太行。
这系列最喜欢的是1，23感觉是瞎拍的，到这一部才又有了点原版的味道
ratman和摄像头女孩我都挺喜欢的，可能隐喻太政治了，我没看懂
我太爱这种脑浆电影了，特别是机械和人结合那段…………这个世界其实充斥着邪恶，但却始终用美好去粉饰，这让我非常愤怒……我情愿在电影中的世界沐浴鲜血……因为它们本质上根本没有区别。
