Jaime Winstone, Nichola Burley and Sian Breckin, star in this feature debut from Brit director Olly Blackburn and a no-holds-barred horror/thriller that pushes the genre to its limits and dares to ask the question: Do you know what a Donkey Punch is?...
In my opinion, the first half of "Donkey Punch" is amazing. In it, three regular English lasses from Leeds get ready, go out, meet some guys, drink a bit, go out on a yacht, swim, flirt, take some drugs and exchange dirty stories, whilst on holiday in Mallorca. Two of them decide to get down and dirty in the yacht's bedroom with, initially two, then three of the young men. The third girl, the more innocent one, the one you know will survive whatever is going to happen, stays up top with the fourth, nicer, guy. All of this, as seedy and occasionally cringe inducing as it is, is filmed as though this is the archetypal, the ideal, the young women's truly desired and dream holiday in Mallorca. It looks beautiful, as though filmed by Nestor Almendros (who shot "Days in Heaven"), and easily overcomes the occasional flaw in its pacing or script. Then something happens, or "goes wrong" (you'll know exactly what by the time it hits you), and our thriller/horror movie gets started. The second half disappointed me, but it has its moments, and the film is worth seeing if only for the first half. Which, again, I will reiterate, is great.
