Review of Fractured

Fractured (2013)
8/10
strange story with some nasty in your face gore elements
8 June 2014
This isn't an easy movie to watch for a few reasons. It do offer gore in it's extremest way and it offers a story that you will have some questions to be answered after wards. The strangeness of the script reminded me a bit of Lost Highway (1997), maybe the score used in Fractured add to that feeling?

When a guy wakes up from a coma he just doesn't know who he is. Therefor he has to search into his mind and past to see who and what he was. It isn't going to be a funny ride. As I wrote earlier it do involves a few extreme gory shots, let's say the scalping is the hardest to take. And when I say that Fred Vogel was responsible for the effects then you know enough, Fred is know for the Mordum Underground flicks.

There's also a lot of nudity to catch even as it isn't that gratuitous as we thought. it's done by Ashlynn Yennie who we knew from the Human Centipede part 1 & 2. She goes all the way full frontal. Vinnie Jones is also to catch and as always he's playing the tough guy.

I do like film noire or flicks you can't understand and I surely would file this under that genre but with a gory aftertaste. Can't say it's straight horror, some parts are, and it surely isn't going to be for everyone but it's worth picking up.
