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.
糖果人系列可以结束了，对于种族问题、房屋拆迁这些探讨只浮于表面，而更深层次的阶级矛盾根本没有打算探讨，即便它有着很大胆、创新、有魅力的镜头语言，但依旧是一部不及格的片子。92年的第一部才是全系列最佳
拍的真的好烂，还不如老版的故事有趣......强行了一波种族压迫但又没讲明白，我属实不能理解了。
这就是一帮无聊的小bk，自个儿找死脑子玩儿（请大家用天津话理解我说的）
6.5 现代艺术与蜂巢群居的部分没能得到很好的展现，又不愿局限于典型的种族斗争而将幕后黑手设置为同类，以至于整个议题显得太杂而缺少提炼，实际仅需一句颤抖中的“tell everyone”就足以站点一切的苦痛和迫害，将罪恶公之于世。
不是我瞧不起GC电影，到底是“不想一個人”，还是“leave me alone” ？小学毕业的我看的云里雾里，就连电影名都搞不清还想拍电影？什么阿猫阿狗都能拍？
NO作NO带，对于科学无法解释的东西，你可以不信，但要保持敬畏，能不碰千万别碰。
吝于认知的景观封锁嵌住的不仅是如同蜂群般的恶灵附身。历史回望后的未来反复，才是真正的表达惊悚。
Like I expected, WOKE of the year. Man's blue Jesus from Wokeman. Woman's
又是借恐怖片来表达黑人议题，某些构图比较别致，但惊吓度非常一般，对着镜子喊五次candyman的作死套路过于老旧，种族问题造成的不公遗传在黑人的命运中，其内涵的尖锐隐喻变成故作高深的贩卖血浆，又一次借尸还魂～
个人评分5分（主观影评、不喜勿喷）
一部包裹着黑人平权意识形态的惊悚片，讲述方式还很直白。
在恐怖片和政治诉求两方面的努力都做得很失败，做不到逃出绝命镇那种剧本高度强行融入种族议题的电影多半会向本片那样扑街，同时对种族问题的观察也太片面太远了，祖师爷斯派克李还会拍吃喝嫖赌坑蒙拐骗的黑人底层劣根人物来体现这个群体的复杂性，到现在年轻导演镜头下就唯恐出现负面人物，白人女都对黑人饥渴难耐倒贴，一个gay哥哥的角色更是毫无作用纯粹作为政治正确锦上添花，这就是粉比黑更招黑的理由，结尾煽动对警察的仇恨更是low，从没有任何问题是靠偏见和仇恨能解决的，有这力气不如多拍拍整个制度系统性制造黑人贫民和犯罪者的过程，信不信所有倪哥都有班上被社会接纳，整个黑人群体立马变成社会一等良民？揭露点制度真相不比这装神弄鬼煽动仇恨强？
美国社会需要一位Candyman。
Childish horror movie
泥哥主演的无脑恐怖片，真的挺无脑。我能接受前半部，后半部真是………呀多洗
观感好过《逃出绝命镇》 但也没好到哪里去 但uysy特别喜欢这篇的镜头语言和皮影戏以及配乐 可以说一部制作精良的作品 但故事不是一点点的拉 立意很好 但即不恐怖也不深刻 糖果人直接变成超级英雄 且故事节奏过于缓慢 还加进去一些意义不明的片段
喊五遍candy man，一个黑人来杀人。
自我感觉还可以吧，早期同类电影看的太多，无感了。
