It is not bad but it is graphic, probably too much for a lot of people. If that stuff isn't for you then you might avoid this, I suppose.

Life is cruel sometimes, it is unfortunate what happens here. Sometimes the physics and logic were distracting. The gore is a lot at times. The story is simple, if a little light.

I thought it was fine. Not for children

I liked how we came to understand the main character. I don't know what else to say, the gore and tone are suffocating enough it makes the stakes and pay-off that much more engaging.

Compared to the tone of Winter's Bone, it is a good companion piece.

Disturbing? Probably for some. I found the situations and dialogue a bit silly. Acting is a bit hammy as well. I kept thinking if this had the guts and grit of the Snowtown Murders, it would have succeeded. There are too many rookie moments, the makeup is a bit unrealistic, the eye gouging in particular was overhyped. I'd heard there were wince enduring moments. Maybe one, but they skip the moment off screen so it doesn't really serve as a scare or gross out moment. If you got through Hostel, this will be a cinch. I liked it but wouldn't recommend it to my extreme horror fans, so to me it missed its audience.

Directed by Sam Curtain, who co-wrote this with Benjamin Jung-Clarke, Beaten to Death starts with Jack (Thomas Roach) being brutalized by Ricky (Justan Wagner) as the body of his wife Rachel (Nicole Tudor) lies dead next to them. Barely alive, Jack stabs the man in the throat and stumbles out of the room. He runs into his neighbor Ned (David Tracy),, but that's just the start of his torture.

That title should tell you everything, because Jack gets destroyed in this movie, which moves across multiple timelines and spends much of its time showing a blinded Jack wandering the Australian outback screaming, covered in blood and dirt and near death.

There's long moments of a man in absolute pain just yelling alternating with moments of extreme violence and an ocular assault that awakened the dead body of Fulci who was probably either smiling or annoyed to be awoken from his slumber. You're either going to love how audacious this is or hate that there's this much endless gore. But hey - the cinematography is gorgeous and in no way does this movie do anything less than go hard and then somehow find a way to go even harder.
