(2008) ***
I had just about hit my limit of torture and depravity films when I found this one. Four cellmates, Mitch, Harry, Peter and Jack, get into a heated game of poker. Mitch loses a bet and refuses to make good on it. The bet being that he must eat an entire tube of toothpaste. His three cellmates force him to make good on the bet, they torment, beat and humiliate him, hold him down and force-feed the toothpaste to him. They continue tormenting him afterward, which quickly escalates to more beating and rape, resulting in Mitch becoming catatonic brought on as he is in shock from the trauma. They then try to convince Mitch to commit suicide so they will not get blamed for the assault. They wind up assisting him with his "suicide" to cover their asses, but an investigation brings forth the truth. The full story is revealed as the three surviving cellmates are interviewed regarding the incident.

Nice summary but I think I'll be skipping this one. I haven't heard a peep out of Uwe Boll in a long time. Octo, didn't you have a Uwe Boll marathon a few year's ago?
Yup, I'm curious but not enough to take the plunge.
I did, but I think he only had two movies out at the time. My impression was that he's a lazy and loveless filmmaker.
I guess I'm interested that he made something of quality, but of course it's more fun not believing it.
I really don't think the quality had anything to do with Boll, it's really the actors who carried this film.
I'm completely satisfied by just reading about the torture and depravity you've witnessed this year, Cat. Thanks for reminding me of what I don't want to actually watch!
