so I'll give it a "5" although maybe I should have divvied up kill as not half but 1/5th of the "content" .... component-wise/dimensionally speaking . . .
really the story is so idiotic "so many amazing pelts you can have whatever your heart desires!" we are supposed to imagine that one fur coat will set someone up for life and then some, I guess? how is it possible to imagine such a thing?! the acting was flat out whore-endous! not a decent performance or anything close in the whole she-bang... especially Mr. loaf, who was just pathetic. it's not unusual for foreign language directors to do a terrible job directing films in English from the point of view of the acting. it's harder for them to sense what isn't working, big time in this case! but the kills were all quite surprising and disgusting and... the sole interesting aspect of the story as told. and I guess I give this movie some points for not involving a lot of mental cruelty. I get so tired of the teasing that killers/monsters and other bad guys in film these days have such a predisposition towards... the kills were definitely sources of any of what Roland barthes would call "jouissance" that this movie provides!! you will certainly have to laugh and look away or else you are one sickly kitty!
