Its a good film, like a good story but it is really really really really disgusting! I saw it at the cinema, and I've actually just picked up a copy on dvd which I'm watching tonight. It appears to be a film of two halves, the opening 45 minutes is essentially narrative driven soft porn, while the second part is extreme and visceral horror. The scene with the blow torch is particularly gruesome. It's easy to see that Eli Roth grew up a horror fanatic, with all the references he makes to other films, while the bare breasts/extreme horror/dark humour mix were textbook elements of all the best 70's, 80's and early 90's teen horror flicks. I really enjoyed it, and if you did too, I'd recommend his first movie, Cabin Fever, if you not already seen it. It's about a group of teenagers who come into contact with a flesh-eating disease while stopping out in the woods - not as extreme, but entertaining all the same.

I think worst bit of Cabin Fever is when one of the girls is shaving her legs in the bath. She takes off most the skin on one leg with the razor!!! Not keen on ankle slitting myself, very similar thing in Pet Sematary that turns my stomach

The extended torture scene at the end is far worse, and either a surgical knife or saw (can't remember) is actually used to cut a foot off.
