《殘酷》是由知名导演廣濑貴士 执导的一部恐怖片，Katrina Grey 仁科貴 亞矢乃 Naho 等倾情出演，该片讲述了： Constan tly on the hunt and suffe ring from hallucina tions that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing wom en and sa vagel y beating them to death. Mean while, a w oman is luring men into a violent end, b y way of her knif e. Driven by the same force to make the opposite se x suffer, t he killers’ fates int ertwine. The two must f ace off i n a bat tle to the death, in which they are force d to r eveal th e horrible trut h be hind their addiction to mu rder. “Brutal” takes an interesti ng approach to its visuals, dr awing heavy influence from Weste rn “Grindhouse” films, using a fi lter to make the fo otage appear gra iny, damaged , and with l ight and c olor f luctuat ions. Unfortuna tely, the visual styling end s up feeli ng misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other as pects of the “Gri ndhouse” genre. D espit e trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematograph y is also a step above m ost “Grindhouse” product ions, with T akashi Hirose provin g he has talent behind the camera. E xterior shots to those ta king p lace in s mall spaces are all c ompetently framed, lit, and transitio n well. The decision to add an effect on top of the w ork hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of d esperation to try to capture a c ertain ty pe of nost algia with t he audience, instead of relying o n its o wn strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can h urt a production so much. The story of “Brutal ” is simple but effective, it does attemp t some sort of socia l co mmentary about the violent n ature of men and wom en, but it does not offer enough depth i nto the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. Th e film does end on a strong not e with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to g ross some out, whi le giving others a chuckle. In spite of i ts simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfort able a nd enjoy t he cha llenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal ” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard. 从师父那里，听过很多故事的卫九 锡看了眼正在 上香的人，就接着八 卦道：“我 师父说，八臂神猿的地宫下，压的是万生魔神，那位魔神 能够分神万 千，但有任何一个分神在外，他都不 可能死。所以，镇他 之人，必须是个意志坚定，认了死理后 ，绝不会被外物影响的八臂神猿。”
