grooveman’s review:
Without a doubt one of the best genre films I have ever seen. Brutal, Funny, and mucho-fucked up! This instantly shot into my top 100.

"Is it finger licking good?"
There are so many great scenes. Lola should be a horror icon in my opinion. "Cry"!
Definitely agree that Princess Lola is a horror icon. I can't even think of another recent horror villain that in my opinion is as memorable as she is. Jigsaw is probably the most known horror villain from the 00s, but having never seen a single Saw movie, I'm going to say that Princess Lola nails his manhood to a chair.
She's way hipper than Jigsaw. You haven't seen the first Saw? The first one is worth watching for sure.
This an Inside are the two best horror films I've seen since 2000.

I started watching the first Saw, but the acting is so bad that I turned it off.
Your high praise for Inside almost makes me want to give it a watch, but I still think I wouldn't be able to sit through it.
Inside's really creepy but ridculously gory. You'd probably dig it though.
Totally agreed. This thing totally stole the show at TIFF midnight maddnes back in '09.
LOVED. IT.
@andrew. this is the perfect midnight movie. I couldn't of liked it more.
Agree, Inside and The Loved Ones are two of the best horror films of the last decade. If you liked The Loved Ones then please feel free to check out my interview with Robin 'Princess' McLeavy here: www.chrisandphilpresent.co.uk/podcast-41-sara-foster-and-robin-mcleavy-interviews-plus-let-me-in-im-still-here-the-town-a-town-called-panic-psych-9-fanboys-and-the-loved-ones/
@grooveman: I'll have to borrow Inside from you next time I'm round your place I guess
@Phil Newton: Interesting interview with McLeavy as was the interview with director Sean Byrne.
@Phil. Thanks for the link I'll give it a listen.
@filmape. I'll hook you up with Inside for sure. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
