Martyrs for the gullible and superficial
glyptoteque21 September 2016
What you get served here is pretentiousness aplenty, pseudo-philosophy wrapped in gory effects. Does it have any impact whatsoever? Nada. Does it have anything profound to share with us? Not in the slightest. This is one of those films that deludes many into believing that underneath the repetitive vomit-gore ( and damn it's repetitive, we get it already, it's not extreme, it's just insanely cheap and boring ) and bloodorama, there is actually something of substance to be found, some nihilistic pearls of wisdom to be lapped up. And so just in case we as audience didn't get the "profundity" merely through visuals and music, we also get the message of meaninglessness hammered through our skulls in the form of repetitive and monotone monologue. The absolutely talentless girl conveying her oh so torturous life to us sounds like she is reading off a shopping-list, she displays no emotion at all, we care about her plight as much as we care about cardboard. Not hard to see what the main inspiration for this travesty is either, it's obviously Martyrs. Several images here are copied with shameless glee, but of course with zero impact, mr. Juuhl is simply not talented enough, don't have the proper vision that Pascal Laugier once had. Whereas Martyrs is one of the most unsettling and powerful films out there, creating almost a genre of it's own, transcending horror, this pile of pompous garbage doesn't even begin to reach the depths that Martyrs did. What was an essential aspect to Annas suffering, her journey into trans-formative non-knowledge, was the screaming silence that ran through it all, we felt her pain, we saw ourselves beneath our words, the speechless darkness. This on the other hand is just surface and cliché-angst, monologue that seems to be written by a self- harming emo kid. There is not true darkness to be found here sad to say. Avoid at all costs.

Stole a scene from a much better extreme horror movie
phoenixxxrising29 April 2022
I'll admit, I didn't finish this movie. I thought it was bad, but kept watching until it stole - move for move - a force feeding scene from Martyrs (2008). I even had a fellow extreme horror fan friend watch it and he agreed that it was the EXACT same scene. Then I got so pissed off, I stopped watching it. Get your own material and stop stealing from the best.

Introducing : The Voice-over
Albert Fish20 September 2017
This movie is terrible. It's 60+ minutes of some woman going on-an-on-and-on about hell-knows what which got boring after about 10 minutes. After that I was like "shut the hell up and let the movie begin already!". But sadly, that's all this piece of celluloid is : a voice-over. Sure, there's some gore put in for good measure here and there so it can loosely be called a horror movie but that didn't stop me from totally hating this thing. I very rarely post a review but this one deserves being bashed into the ground. THE worst movie I've seen this year, easily. So, from me, a 1 out of 10 (I'd give it a 0 if that was possible).

PS : the blood-vomiting got old real fast, too.

Gosh she won't shut up
owjan-4597920 November 2020
What a garbage, Jesus. Tasteless, just a cheap blonde going around half naked and wings about everything. No Imagination whatsoever. It was a disaster and director should be send to gulag Siberia for the rest of his miserable life.

Okay, so there is a touch of gore.
AJ_Nel13 February 2022
Apart from a touch of okay gore (which scored it one point) it felt like a softcore porn film without the softcore porn (or even the music). It only had that emotionless female voice-over. The Camara angles were horrible. There was no atmosphere. Cinematography was flat. Direction non-existant. Nobody on this planet can form a nexus to this film.

Wild film
pnowicki67826 August 2014
This is a tough and wild film from beginning to end. Interesting and captivating, but with a hard edge. If I didn't have Srpski Film behind me it would have been a bit of a shock. But then if I was looking for a Hollywood standard I wouldn't have bought and seen this film. It will be interesting to see what the director and cast can do with some funding because this is quite impressive for a $6,000 budget. Alright. Sit back and see a film you wont soon forget because it's sticks in your head for a while. While it is probably fiction, I found myself wondering how much of this could or did happen, and the effect it would have on someone if in fact did. Good work

READ BEFORE WASTING TIME
itrevorallen24 September 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Dear lord you couldn't find a narrator to write the script with more than a 5th grade education? The concepts are so simple it's painful. And there's literally zero abstract features of this film. Severe blood and violence? The movie's torture scenes are PG-13 quality movie effects with minimal blood.

The film is literally hours of some upbeat spoken women talking about how aweful her life and history has been. There's no despair or misery in her voice it's just monotone sub-upbeat speaking which matches the wannabe tone 0%. This movie makes me want to produce a simple exploitation narrative and blow this attempt out of the water.

I Agree With Most Here
mjazzguitar-800-1897023 March 2022
What a terrible film. I made it halfway through, until I couldn't take any more. Who wants to see a woman being brutalized for an hour? If there is any redeeming value or she found some kind of meaning.to life, as the description says, it's not worth waiting to find out.

A tragic waste of cellulose acetate
madmanrhc13 May 2021
"Madness of Many" is, without a doubt, the worst movie ever made. This film has no socially redeeming qualities and probably ruined the acting careers of anyone associated with this cinematic fiasco. Kasper Juhl should not be allowed to watch another movie, much less write or direct one. I don't know who the Anti-Christ is but Juhl is a solid candidate!

If Martyrs and Slaughter Vomit Dolls had a baby you'd get this.
DarkSpotOn22 April 2024
I have seen one other movie from this director, and that was Sunken Danish. Well this movie fails under the same trap Sunken Danish did. The gore effects here are fine, everything else really goes no where.

There is zero plot to this. We follow a woman that escaped her abusive family when she was 23, and then we see scenes of her and other women getting brutally tortured and abused for no reason.

The audio mix is terrible, to the point i barely understood what she was saying. WATCH with SUBTITLES. The version i watched had nearly zero subtitles, so when i tried to listen to the actress, the music will just top her voice.

There are creative gore shots in this movie i'll give them credit there. The two women being ontop of each other for example. Honestly, this footage would of been awesome for a heavy metal band.

Like a heavy metal band could make a 3 minute song, and use the scenes from this movie for the music video, i think that would of worked much better then what we got here.

Honestly, only reason you'd wanna watch this is simply if you area Vomit Gore fan, then this is for you. But if you are looking for something with a plot, or any logic, probably not for you.
