    I watched the whole August Underground series in one go, and this is the only movie I kept in my collection. It's the most extreme, feels the most natural and charged, and finally does the good deed of working with three killers. A vast improvement over the first and far better t...( read more)han its followup; perhaps that has something to do with the fact that Fred Vogel is no longer charged with directing. This is extreme for snuff even, with the most intense scene involving a severed penis rape. Perfect balance between camera quality and effects quality (effects are extremely high quality and better than most professional productions). The visual quality is compromised on purpose to capture the handheld/found footage aesthetic and of all three movies this strikes the best balance between overplanninng and underplanning in terms of shot composition and how much jerky hand tremble shooting is allowed. A great extreme movie, and the only entry in the August Underground series worthy of notice.

    "So Fucked Up" highlight: forcing guy to cut his own penis off, the friend's basement playroom

    After watching The Proposal, I was in the mood for watching people get killed. So I chose to watch this. It was really boring and I thought I was going to fall asleep but there were a few good parts.

    The acting was ok, but the dialogue was horrible and almost made me /wrists. T...( read more)he effects were amazing, aside from the gritty camera which was annoying, but everything else looked good.

    It seemed to me that 3/4 of the movie was people 'vomiting' on each other, which was kind of lame. The people in the movie were extremely gross and ugly and they were probably the most disgusting thing about the movie. Pretty much the only scene I liked was when the dude, uh.. I can't remember his name now, the brother guy, was like, raping the dead kid in the bath. Coz that was kind of cool.

    Who would ever dream that a movie with so much exploitation could be so dull. Granted, seeing people throws up makes me queezy but I was more irritated by these hacks who thought it was "awesome" to make shocking stuff. I hear part 4 is them picking their noses and showing it t...( read more)o us. Well, at least it's not Slaughtered Vomit Dolls.

    This is crap. It is sick and there's no plot at all.

    kind of plotless; NOT for the faint-hearted. 'Blair Witch' for serial killers

    Okay now after watching the first August Underground movie you know what to expect from the second one right? Wrong, this movie completely tops its predecessor utterly and completely to the point where I dont even want to waste brain cells trying to talk it up (or down). It is do...( read more)ne on the same grainy and hard to deal with jerky camera style filming. It is hard to watch and is without a doubt one of the most disgusting, vile, disturbing, and truly scary movies ever made. All the rules that I told you about the first one apply double here. Look at it as an incredibly sick piece of fiction and you will do fine. Suspend any disbelief and you may find yourself pulling a Charlie Sheen (turning the movie into the MPAA and then the Police).
    This synopsis will be a brief explanation or maybe more like a laundry list of just some of the grossness that went into this. Two girls are forced to eat puke then are brutally murdered, a man is castrated and then his castrated penis is used to rape his girlfriend who is then mercilessly slaughtered. As I was watching this I couldnt believe that this movie existed or was in any way necessary. Uh anyways let me continue with the 'synopsis'. Plus add a tad of Necrophilia and then add in some dude having sex with (ie. inserting his penis into) a gaping flesh wound that he cut into someone, and later on in the film eats he a maggot covered highly decomposed headless baby body (Yes you read that right). And on and on and on, the movie eventually ends with the most fucked up character cutting his own throat open (thank god). You as the viewer want to kill yourself for watching such a depraved piece of work but the best you can do is take a long shower and forget you ever even watched this piece of celluloid toilet paper.

    i watched this online for free and i stopped it a million times. sickest thing ever made. i gave it two stars for the effects (which deserve 5). these people are going to Hell. Don't watch this ever.

    The point of these pseudo-snuff films was to pretend to create something vile and disgustingly exploitative. Mordum includes a scene where people actually do things to each other (Not gonna spoil it); it's not illegal but holy fuck that was some extreme stuff. It's one of the few...( read more) films to actually disturb me, and because of that I'm forced to give it no less than 3 stars because it succeeded in doing what it set out to do.

    The shaky handycam is still here, making you all upset in your stomach. Some inventive ideas, but I liked the first one more.

    Sì be', considerarlo un film forse è troppo... ed io che pensavo di non trovarlo nemmeno qua sopra.
    Per quando ci si vuole male, ma veramente.
