I noticed all the 1 votes and most occurred when the film was released. I really can't blame them but if you watch this with a bit of forewarning you may get through it and walk away not too scathed. It is bizarre on more than a few levels though.

The film is designed to shock and appall. It's probably aimed at 15-21 y/o's with pretty gross out humour. It's full of concepts usually never spoken about or if they're ever voiced it's probably at the end of a party where everyone's in the kitchen, has had way too much to drink and is just trying to outdo each other by taking a concept too far. Part of me thinks that's probably how the film was born.

Some kudos has to go to the stars in it for...well just being in it. How they got them to sign on is amazing and how they got through the scenes with a straight face is a testament to their acting ability.

In a nutshell it's an eclectic bunch of short stories that admittedly are a bit hard to watch at the time but do make you chuckle momentarily afterwards when you think back to certain moments. It is a film that's funnier when you look back on it after a decent amount of time from when you watched it.

If you are a person whose somewhat easily offended then give it a miss. If on the other hand you're not shocked by gross humour then strap yourself in, you're in for a ride you won't forget too quickly.

Will I toss the DVD out? No. Will I watch it again anytime soon. I haven't seen it in 18 months and I'm in no hurry to give it another spin but one day I'll revisit it. If only to be amazed at how so many stars came together in such a bizarre film. The memory of Kate Winslet's face at the dinner table just makes me laugh. As for the other scenes, I just don't think about them. Although some are pretty hard to forget.

No, it's actually like being dared to drink someone else's vomit and doing it. Unfortunately this film made me realize some people shouldn't write or produce movies. It's a shocker. Hard to believe there's going to be a third installment. I pity everyone involved.

Ever been at a restaurant with the guy at the table who takes the conversation way too far? The one who has to say what's on his mind no matter how sick it is. Humor's one thing but this is just plain freak.

Now if Steven Spielberg had never made a movie it would've been a crime. Conversely that Tom Six made this film is almost a crime. I read a review that said this started out as a joke and I could believe that. But if that's the case it should've stayed that way. It's like a few people got together, downed a stack of booze and drugs then decided to make a movie about the worst thing they could think of. Then did.

Beneath it all it's like the Dutch writer of this, Tom Six, holds an underlying disdain for Germans. The Mengele type doctor (well acted by the way, he was freaky), the perverted fat guy in the car. The cops weren't bad but their actions portrayed them more like they were on the first day of the job as opposed to seasoned professionals. What policeman worth their salt would let a weirdo shout at them and take it? But then Six extended it to the Japanese guy and the American chicks. I'm not American, German or Japanese but it's like he was taking pot shots at everyone. And he definitely didn't keep his powder dry.

To add insult to injury the plot is so full of holes. No matter how ditzy you might be, there's some things you'd never do, especially when traveling. And the girls made every mistake in the book. The actions of the captives was really weird too. Opportunities missed to raise the alarm or nullify the doctor that made me cringe.

I quite like off beat movies, Toxic Avenger is a fave and I love horror but this was so bad you'd have more chance of a cat playing a Beethoven piano concerto on a TV station that aired it instead of the Super Bowl than enjoying this. It's just wrong on so many levels but I give 1 star to the maniacal doctor. In several parts Dieter Laser looked as maniacal as you can get. Sure glad he's not my doctor. I think I'd just kill myself rather than rock up to an appointment with him.

Yes, this film is the poster boy for the worst dressed at a bad dress up party or the saying "Well, that's 90 minutes I'll never get back". Don't waste your time with it. If you've been dared to watch it and will, then I feel for you. This film makes Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes look like an Academy Award winning movie in every category. Truly the worst film I think I've ever seen. Definitely leaves an impression, it's just the wrong one. That is unless you have sadomasochistic tendencies. Then you're in for a treat. Watch this again or drink vomit? Where's a mug.

Bring back Charlie!

OK, I've only seen a few episodes but as much as I like Ashton he isn't a blink on Charlie and his role sucks. John's character is out of whack now too. Too much Alan, and not in the same vain as the character I use to love. Confident, in control Alan is not what I want to see. Jake rocks but Bertha moving in is plain disturbing. Sheen may have blown it but if the producers know what's good for this awesome series they'll all get over themselves and bring back Charlie. His character is what this this show is all about. There was definitely something special about the dynamic of all the characters pre Charlie having a brain fade. Somehow the show managed to take a simple dynamic of all the characters and consistently come up with fabulous story lines. The show needs someone with the arrogance of Charlie. His dynamic with every other character was awesome and incredibly well crafted. Ashtons character is way too weepy for his ex. I keep wishing he'd grow some balls, like Charlie had. Sadly I'll be confined to the re-runs with Charlie in them. He was the show. Sorry producers but you took the jam out of my doughnut when you killed off Charlie. Let's hope you come to your senses and resurrect him before the show bombs completely.
