Constantly on the hunt and suffering from hallucinations that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing women and savagely beating them to death. Meanwhile, a woman is luring men into a violent end, by way of her knife. Driven by the same force to make the opposite sex suffer, the killers’ fates intertwine. The two must face off in a battle to the death, in which they are forced to reveal the horrible truth behind their addiction to murder.
“Brutal” takes an interesting approach to its visuals, drawing heavy influence from Western “Grindhouse” films, using a filter to make the footage appear grainy, damaged, and with light and color fluctuations. Unfortunately, the visual styling ends up feeling misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other aspects of the “Grindhouse” genre. Despite trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematography is also a step above most “Grindhouse” productions, with Takashi Hirose proving he has talent behind the camera. Exterior shots to those taking place in small spaces are all competently framed, lit, and transition well. The decision to add an effect on top of the work hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of desperation to try to capture a certain type of nostalgia with the audience, instead of relying on its own strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can hurt a production so much.
The story of “Brutal” is simple but effective, it does attempt some sort of social commentary about the violent nature of men and women, but it does not offer enough depth into the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. The film does end on a strong note with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to gross some out, while giving others a chuckle. In spite of its simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfortable and enjoy the challenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard.
看完以后觉得特别眼熟，后来搜了一下编剧，发现果然看过之前他写的兴安岭猎人传说。自己抄自己可还行，不过水平不如之前了哦，好在互联网是没记忆的……
个人感觉不仅是演员还是导演或者再说是情景，都还是不错的，个人感觉还挺好看，挺带感的，他们的心情我们懂，但我们不能为他们做出相对应的事情……
大陆来说真的很棒了。好几年都没有这么用心的编剧和演员了。不再是帅和美，而是各具特色。
推荐指数：🌟🌟近些年网大水平有所提升了，画面电影质感还是很不错，又要打擦边球又要讲恐怖就换了一种讲故事的方式#电影 #山村狐妻
“戏子无义！”顶着玄幻标题讲人性，老生常谈，老标题党了。
可以的，人性描写的很真实，穷凶极恶大概就是这个意思
谁做的营销？这是罗生门？看过《罗生门》吗？！黑泽明的棺材板盖不住了！
网大中的精品悬疑片，反转反转再反转，演员演得不错~
本着消遣看看，还有点小惊喜。有人才有妖啊！
x冷淡喜欢上了x无能？男二这样的男神都能拒绝我服了
这剧本台词、情节反转、自带的一丢丢反讽，五星。 我感觉超过欧美新出的那些翻拍、续貂之作
额，还是可以的，人性 是真的黑暗啊。。只是感觉手法有点弱，包装了一堆妖魔鬼怪的故事，讲得有点凌乱，而且太浅显了。但还是值得一看的哈~ 小萝莉真的是漂亮极了~~
人性就是这么自私贪婪，又不懂感恩
回归了白鱼镇水准，人之恶和虚伪比起鬼狐更加可怕
最后一切都是瞎子转述，所有人在街上出镜……
男女之间的救赎，拯救和羁绊是我喜欢和感兴趣的设定。对比过去，面对又一次和寄宿小女孩（非女主）的分离男主的挣扎，让我挺动容的。看下来剪辑会有点乱，男主的故事讲述太少了，感觉有些东西没讲清楚。但是男女主的羁绊和情感能感受到的满的。
不知道什么时候，才能不拿着害怕低文化人员认为鬼怪是真的这样的离奇理由，来抹杀我国延续数千年的奇闻怪志。
都是网大老面孔，制作水平比起几年前可谓是鸟枪换炮了。某些院线电影能不能连网大都打不过🥲
边缘人们的眼泪。一直想起李米的猜想里最后周迅对着镜头流泪的样子。
有点儿意思，狐仙鬼怪没法搞，倒开辟出了《罗生门》式的人性悬疑故事。
