If you're into gore, guts and jumpiness you will enjoy this film. It is far-fetched and over-the-top but that is what is expected and is infact compulsary in this genre.
It is a well made film with good gorey close-ups, keeps you in suspense and takes you to the absolute limit of gore/sickness that laws allow to be seen...
If you like the gore (and I kinda do sadistically) then you'll love it. If you don't mind the gore then you may tolerate it. If you don't like the gore (the missus doesn't) don't bother!!! I've based my rating on a mixture of myself and the missus and so with my 4 and her 2 the average is 3!
The film is set in 1970's Thailand. Bass, the main character, decides to open up a noodle shop using human remains as the main ingredient. The shop becomes a success until Bass' past catches up with her.
Meat Grinder sounds like your typical horror b-movie, but it actually boasts good productio,. excellent acting and great special effects. As such though, it is not a film for people with weak stomachs. However, if you are a fan of shock horror films, you'll love this.
I don't know why I watched this film - all I know is I regretted it from about 1m40 seconds in, until 23 minutes 45 when I had to give up. Gorefest torture porn at its worst. I'd give it a miss, but then again, you might like that sort of thing.
I really enjoyed watching it - my first Asian horror movie! There is a lot of blood and some moments of brutal torture that might stay with you for few days.
If you faint when you watch ER, than this is definitely not for you!
Not really my kind of film but my boyfriend thought it was good.
If you thought Hostel was bad..... this is worse.
This is blood, blood and more blood in this, as you would expect from the title!!! I would say only people who like blood and gore films will like this and if you do like blood and gore films then you will LOVE this!
Look if you are looking up this movie chances are you know what you like and that is plenty of gore, sometimes a small plot and lots or set peices. Well the thai film industry rarely fails to deliver these points and this movie is no different. This is a shocking movie with many moments that have to be seen to be beleived but thats what you want is just by looking at the cover you havent closed the page. So for a good time with one of the best horror movies of the last 5 years then just buy it now.
This is definitely not one for the kids. Meat Grinder is about is a female psychopath who grinds her victims into meatballs for noodle soup and eventually eats them.
This is an intense cult Asian horror film. The woman goes about her killing spree with such resolve that he story becomes more alarming. Since this basically a torture movie, the storytelling and tone is impossible to define, but completely watchable.
No complaints here true horror at its best. Filmed in its true glory of special effects gory and bloody. At times a little too over the top. Story line is simple but puts together a good film.Looking for bodies couldnt have got any better and soon everyone is a victim! A film not to be missed and unlike some films you cant depict the ending. Filmed and directed in Thailand makes this a watchable film at its very best!
With echoes of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (Mrs Lovett's pies anyone?), this film is set up for stomach churning scenes which will make you think twice before eating your next meal.
That said, its compelling storyline and intelligent dialogue makes it a movie well worth seeing if you can move above the squeamish inducing plotline. It raises the question of what happens when right and wrong blurr together and how someone who isn't sure of each would cope when faced with the decision to cross a line they can't see. This is the story of someone trying to make a living and unable to stop when the ball of success starts rolling.
(Just don't eat whilst watching it!)
This is horror at it's best, similar storyline to Sweeney Todd in that people are murdered and put in food. A bizarre story which puts you off noodle soup. A woman finds a man who is dying and decides to finish him off and put him in her noodle soup, it is a hit on her stall and you can guess what happens from there on. Very gruesome and uncut on dvd

Thai 'torture porn' horror.
