| Filmcritic.comKeith BreeseTo be honest, I was just trying not to lose consciousness. |
| User ReviewRobert BTurn off your brain, grab a drink, and relax with the visceral overload that is Visions of Suffering. This 2 hour Russian indie flick is difficult to critique in a traditional way, because it is far from a traditional film. The bulk of the film is dream sequences and visions of main character whose real life is about as bleak as his crazy ass dreams. This movie is an absolute overload on the senses. The amount of work put into this sucker is impressive, but it is a difficult flick to give your full attention because it is so extreme. It qualifies as horror as many of the images are disturbing and gory and it will certainly test genre fans. Iskanov would go on to produce the massive Philosophy of a Knife which is an even greater test of endurance and personal fortitude. enjoy. |
| User ReviewHillary BAlright I'm going to start off with...I've never had a acid trip (in high school) like this and if I did I would have killed myself (though everything I had was low grade...except those Skull & Cross Bone, window pane is gone forever my friends). This is the first time ever I've found a film to be too "artistic" for me (and I love Lynch), although my low rating, I don't condemn it. Watch it if you must. Great cover. |
| User ReviewRyan WMan, even the one star rating is being generous. I really could not envision anyone enjoying this film unless they are on hard drugs, or have previously experimented with them in the past. |
| User ReviewAnna MAs a friend of mine put it, "aptly titled" - but I felt like I was the only one truly suffering. The only use I can think of for this film (besides watching it if you're on acid or desire a 2-hour migraine) is to have this playing on the inside wall of a haunted house if you're too lazy to do anything special with it. |
