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.
韩国恐怖片真是喜欢现实意义的传达，《隧道》：道路千万条，安全第一条；《红衣女》：拒绝校园霸凌；《齿虫》：定时洗牙；《招魂》：恐同；《层间噪音》：租房核验非自然死亡事件；《二手家具》：不要买二手！《冥婚》：姓名和八字不要随便给陌生人，会被抓去配阴婚。《镜子中的女人》：自媒体的容貌焦虑。《人体模型》是比较喜欢的一个故事。《齿虫》看得我牙好疼，变异寄生虫本是好故事但变丧尸的逻辑很突兀，更近似几个类型片的捏合。多数故事在力图反恐怖片套路，部分故事虎头蛇尾倾向。
结尾太草率了吧，那么力大无穷的生物就被戳死了，都不带还击的。
果然没有故事脉络是真不行，我看到打瞌睡你敢信？！
美国工业没落与土著妖怪背景的结合，惊悚性太差，但是阴暗潮湿的氛围很强，女主和小男孩悲惨的遭遇也有一定共鸣，结局是典型的表面太平了实则会重蹈负面发展的结局~
果然不该看韩国人的恐怖片 首尔怪谈 首尔的鬼都这么无聊的吗 不管是画面还是剧情都非常俗套 跟国产恐怖片无聊的程度可以说是有过之而无不及 有些故事其实想法不错比如最后一个密室 对着墙谈恋爱的普信男但是拍的实在过于潦草 特别是密室 有种看到一半突然糊一坨大便给你跟你说结束了一样 小女在此发誓愿此生不再看韩国恐怖片😅
4.5/10。质感非常好，故事高开低走，是那种放十年前能让老湿做一期吐槽的乱力怪神作品。
务面被女鬼招夫婿那个我光看颜了，说实话，有点涩涩的，想看女鬼和他第四爱，因为他最后哭的蛮好看的🥺
氛围不错，细节不行，处处让人觉得 r u serious？ 以及怪兽设计有些撞黑森林。
前半部結合破敗小鎮陰冷的氛圍詭異莫名的圖畫殘破不全的尸體本來還挺好的，但這一擊即潰的戰鬥力生生從神話系瞬間降格為怪獸係，還是弱雞裡的戰鬥機，搞得結尾附身精神力也毫無威脅感可言了，還有女主的童年陰影共情男童完全畫蛇添足
雖然買了前售券，但等到了快下映了上週終於記得去看了。跟原作比起來太溫和了吧。奏多演的角色死得也太雜魚了吧，聲音還是很好聽的。原作大概可以繼續補，續篇估計是不會去電影院看了。
事实证明精炼的恐怖短剧比装神弄鬼的剧情更看得进去
有点可惜，这个冷色调的故事拍得严肃又瘆人，在血腥程度上也毫不踩刹车，但总感觉少点什么。细想可能展开拍个迷你剧更好，这么急匆匆地回顾女主和男孩的身世，雨露均沾，反而哪里都说得不够味。另外这故事里的主题也太多了（不能说硬塞，它们确实是相关联的），100分钟确实局促了点。总之，换个形式就好了。
剧情就不说了 其中几个人演技巨差巨浮夸 难看死了
3、丧尸牙虫，寄生传染
等了两年多，就这么浮皮潦草？暗黑风格很受用，男孩演技出类拔萃，但这个剧本实在拉胯，恐怖片该有的无脑环节它都有，小成本受限，耸动场景都拍的太小儿科了，只能用尸块血浆替代视觉冲击，氛围平平，家庭变故千篇一律，警探都是酒囊饭袋，纷纷前来送人头，最后全靠手无缚鸡的女主角轻松杀的怪物片甲不留，还一箭双雕？？胡诌到鬼都不信！★☆
……哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
前半部氛围这么好，后半部分却崩的厉害，俩男警察的战斗力还不如女老师的设定也是没谁了~5.8
流星这个歪嘴龙王演得不孬，还是阿白比较出戏，多哥这么多年了还在演这种角色真的……
番外把我的期望值拉到极低，结果正片还不错啊——到ババ抜き之前都挺酷的hhhhh流星好帅好矮啊hhhhh
好拉，就是靠着猎奇心理也能看完，但看完啥也留不下的水平
