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.
虽然第三个故事和另外几个风格有点儿不统一，但是疯狂科学家改造人太cult了，画面清晰度最高反倒感觉最复古，血也舍得给，顽主的台词特别符合观看时的心情：哥们儿就喜欢俗的！老鼠人吸血鬼和守夜人都差不多吧，这个系列还是可以看看的
回到录像厅cult片时代，单纯的本本cult
对第一部无感，因为评价看了最新这部，果然还是内心毫无波澜……机械姬part倒是适合改成第一视角fps
照比前三部差很多，除了机械博士的有点意思，其它的都不够邪，而且少了这个系列最重要的东西，就是xxx漂亮妹子！
带劲啊，虽然看到我快吐了……我一看致命录像带就想吐，也是没谁了……四个故事都比前几部的精致多了，第一个鼠人造型的真是可爱至极，第二个给丧尸守灵的黑妹真是好身材，第三个机器改装人最恶心，不过也是最棒的，第四个反社会民兵菜鸡组织被吸血鬼反杀有点喜剧效果，串联这些故事的特警队团灭于内鬼姐妹花最无聊，整体下来，最大缺点就是恐怖元素不够多，不过我特喜欢这种画面模糊的恐怖片，带入感极强。
要多拍这种片子，有缺点，不完美，混乱但是贴近真正的自然秩序。
剧情：为几段视频故事的混剪
不行不太行，第3个故事可以但是格格不入单独出来拍个片成有点爽。
第一次看录像带系列，还蛮喜欢的。摄像头人造人cool，雨夜守灵味道足，吸血鬼的血遇光发生爆炸这种想法真妙。
总体感觉还行。第三个拼接机器人的故事今年颇有盛名。
几个故事都有种特别强的既视感。第二个守灵的故事虽然普通但是吓人氛围最足。
1.鼠人2.殡仪馆守灵3.科学怪人4.吸血鬼
鸡肋，食之无味弃之可惜。几个故事没什么亮点，以至于看第四个故事我就想不起来第二个讲的是什么了。第四个故事和主线最大的问题就是，太过晦涩，抽象，废话不会带来神秘感，而是让整体看起来含糊不清，神经病一样，和第三部的大缺点一脉相承。娱乐性不强，故事性不硬，晦涩难吃，我可以说这是风格，但是你能跟第二部学一下吗？别tm玩花活，好好讲故事可以吗，先穿裤子后穿裤衩，不会跑就想飞，你tm不是超人。。ps:提莫还是不错的。
3>4>1>2 我觉得守夜最烂啊 莫名其妙的 然后就是地下道 有点意犹未尽 在是邪教 跟美国政治结合这个还蛮有意思的 爆炸血有点搞笑 机械人这个还蛮有意思 最完整 最后那剧情还有点意思 有点像bioshock那游戏 总得来说可以更好吧 脑洞再大点就好
脑浆血浆统统不要钱。94年的VHS风格很怀旧。
有以前cult片那味了，前两个故事都很nice！好久没看到这种复古风味了，整体质感也很到位，期待下一部？
几个故事的恐怖血腥程度也都还可以（除了最后一个搞不太清楚），但就是画质全程保持录像带的质感实在太难以观看，模糊的质感看的头晕，看完全片都没看清任何一个演员的脸
下水道的故事很完整 守夜让人笑出声 就开始没有耐心看下去了
看得我太爽了，好久没有这种感觉了。意犹未尽。cast部分也很cult朋克！
影片整体和上一部相比提升巨大
