Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
andersdamkjaer I was looking forward to watching this movie, because it sounded great and the cover... Well the cover was more interesting than the movie itself...I almost always watch a movie all the way through, even the bad ones. But this movie, i had to stop at about 30 minutes in. Yes, that's how awful it is. I don't know how bad the rest of the movie is, but judging on the first 30 minutes, I really doubt that it is getting any better...It begins with this group of young people who walk by a food-stand of some sort (I guess?), and they witness some animal cruelty, which to me is just a sad attempt to get people to watch the movie or get "freaked out". I think that animal cruelty in a movie like this one, is just a way of saying that they are not able to come up with any good material.Anyway, I kept on watching this thing...Later on, the group of young people enter a sleazy adult theater or some place like that. By the way, the group consists of both young males and females, and why would the girls agree to enter such a place to begin with?? When they get in to this theater place, what do they do? Yes, you guessed it! They do drugs... It just makes the characters look so stupid, and the result is that you don't even care about what's going to happen to them, anymore. You want to be able to relate the the main characters in a movie, but who is dumb enough to have the same thoughts as these people: "Hey, we are in a foreign country. We don't know the place, and we just witnessed a local guy being cruel to an animal. It's night and the neighborhood does not seem to be that safe, so why don't we all enter this creepy and sleazy adult theater?" "No, that is probably not a good idea..... UNLESS WE DO DRUGS!!!"I think that this was where I quit watching this movie...So should you watch this movie? Yes, if you like any of the following:Animal cruelty scenesCheap actingDrugsRidiculously bad attempts at creating a Hostel-like movieI would not recommend it... At least not the part of it that I watched.
carl_andersen A bunch of realistic drawn different characters will end, like the title tell, as live feed for some perverts having fun to see a live send snuff movie in a special club. No, this is not an entertaining Sunday afternoon movie, of course not. But: You will like the characters from the beginning (even which you don't like) and what you will see is an endless massacre from nearly the beginning to the end. Is this a perverted movie? I don't think so. It is more a movie about perverts (this characters we clearly should not like, and it works) they like to manipulate and destroy people. Beside this intellectual side of view: The acting is very good, the characters (even the worst) believable, the soundtrack amazing and the timing exciting. Not your usual stuff, maybe, but as I told in the summary: much, much better then the over-hyped "Hostel".
show_me_your_belly_butto I just want to start by saying this is the first review of a film I have done on the net. I felt the need to warn people about this film because it truly is one of the worst films I have ever seen. After reading interviews with the director he says he respects constructive criticism and so i will try to avoid bashing the film just for the sake of it and offer my opinions as to why i found it to be so catastrophically terrible.1. The actors. I know the budget may not have allowed for great thespians but with Nicholson working in the industry for over ten years surely he knew some actors who were at least average.2. The incredibly lame make up and special effects. Once again budget obviously interfered with what was originally intended but after working in make up for so many years there is really no excuse.3. The obvious similarities to Hostel. Whilst not being exactly a rip off it sure does try to cash in on the former films success. Only problem is Roth knew where he was going and exactly how to get there...4. The music. Not at all creepy or haunting not even sickening just plain annoying.5. The script in general. All dialogue was forced and terrible! Also the sub plots about the theatre and the guy who comes in to save them were weak as and almost like an afterthought.6. The editing. WTF. How jarring, and not in a good way. nuf said.Seriously I would like to hear the director's thoughts on my post (he no doubt frequents his pages on IMDb.) cause buddy... what were you thinking. Surely at some point during either the shooting or editing you realised what a turkey yolu had on your hands... Sorry I don't want to be harsh but you must have more talent than this i hope your next feature that gutterballs movie or wahtever is better, hopefully practice makes progress.But in the mean time avoid this like the plague. I want my 81 mins back with interest. (At least I didn't pay to watch it.)
The_Void 2005 gave us the very decent "gore porn" flick Hostel, and 2006 gave us Live Feed; a not so decent rip-off of Hostel. Live Feed follows pretty much the same formula as Eli Roth's earlier film, except this time the dumb kids are in Asia rather than central Europe. The plot focuses on these dumb kids, and one of them has annoyed one of the locals so they find themselves in trouble. The locals decide to lock them all in a theatre, and kill them. Despite the fact that I'd heard some less than favourable things about this film before seeing it, I still hoped that it might be at least half decent because director Ryan Nicholson previously made the very decent 45 minute rape and revenge film 'Torched', but this film falls down simply because most of it is either ridiculous or boring. The film is obviously trying to hark back to the good old days of Grindhouse cinema (which Hostel did, successfully), but it really doesn't come off. Surprisingly, considering Nicholson's previous work in special effects - not even the gore is impressive...although it is a lot better than the acting! There's not much else I can say about this film...it's bad and not in a good way. Avoid it!
