One thing to remember is that this is a movie where the essence lies in intelligent plot-twists. A lot of people have criticized it's jumpy-style of MTV cutting and flashy style.
In my opinion this was better than just an MTV monster-metal video, as it raised a lot of existential questions which few people seem to have thought of seeing it. Also its pure gore and suspense was at maximum.
So what drives us to do obscene and morally corrupt things and what does make them OK in the context? This is hard to answer and makes the movie more terrifying in my opinion.
Is the serial just a symbol for the net in which we all are stuck? Maybe not, but I thought about that, maybe Wan did to.
The third most disturbing thing is that the "brain" was in the room the whole time.
The fourth disturbing fact is that WE two are, since we're the voyeurs as much as the serial and the character "Zep". In a cinematic kind of view we're part of this until the bitter end. Maybe it US the killer is trying to please ;) A gruesome movie (in a good way). With some overdone things here and there (cutting and directing in general), but considering this to be a débutante this is extremely promising. Another negative thing may be it's similarities to other 90's movies, but I see this as contemporary. It's just a question of what we want to see. Seven was quite similar to a lot of other movies, so was Fight Club. As Oscar Wilde put it "an amateur loans but a true genius steals", just look at Star Wars (the old ones naturally), Matrix, Hitchcock and a lot of comedy writers/directors like the one of Shaun of the Dead - stealing from religions, philosophy, books, contemporary events and similar things.
The only thing apart from the acidous hummer in the movies which I thought was quite funny, was the man on the floor. If this would be put on a stage instead, like on Broadway, I would like to play him. It would be wonderful to lie down for two hours and earn a days salary, hahahahahaha.
