Talk about out-of-left-field. This omnibus of strange and harrowing stories connected by vagabond characters at various levels of moral bankruptcy revolves around the same KFC location. A sick doctor and his twisted cohorts attack random people and ultimately cannibalize them. The doctor’s own rotund young son has grown accustomed to the taste of human flesh and gleefully tries to share it with street kids, who have already run afoul of an assortment of evil creeps. 'Bizarre' would be an understatement for this out-of-control orgy of revenge, featuring cryptic dialogue and plastic, almost detached depictions of deliberate torment and the squashy sucking, splattering and dull thudding of abused flesh. Debut filmmaker Lê Bình Giang takes the body-horror genre to new heights, combining an ethereal ennui and anomie with raw, visceral savagery. Not for the faint-hearted.

Reviews

If you like Gore you will love this movie

"This movie was good. A little on the short side tough."

— Jelmer B. (4/5)

Not Taco Bell

"Quite the interesting release from Dekanalog. The transfer looks great, there are some interesting extras, but most importantly this is a weird little movie that you wouldn’t be able to see otherwise if people weren’t out there saving them from oblivion. It’s obviously the filmmakers first movie, but it makes me excited for what’s next."

— Reeves M. (5/5)

Awesome debut

"This feature film debut is very impressive, highly recommended. A great physical release!"

— Jakob P. (5/5)

Underground Shock, Definitive Edition

"Vinegar Syndrome’s Blu-ray of KFC delivers a sharp, unsettling presentation of this notorious modern shocker. The transfer preserves the raw, abrasive style while giving the film a clarity it’s never had on home video. Packaging is striking, ensuring this release stands out as the essential edition of an uncompromising work."

— Tristin B. (5/5)

AN INDIE-ASIAN THRILLER FUSED WITH CRIME NEO-NOIR

"AN INDIE-ASIAN THRILLER FUSED WITH CRIME NEO-NOIR. THE TRANSFER LOOKS FINE, NOT SOMETHING I WOULD REVISIT PROBABLY. BUT A FOR EFFORT FOR A FIRST TIME DIRECTOR. ALSO INCLUDED IS A GREAT SELECTION OF EXTRAS, 5/10"

— Derek L. (3/5)

Fun f upped movie

"Great transfer . Fun F upped movie"

— Richard J. (5/5)

?

"I spent a chunk of this short nasty thinking of Alan Clarke's ELEPHANT. A series of random acts of hideousness, though lacking the hypnotic repetition of Clarke's masterpiece. As connections pop up, the mind has actual info to toy with instead of falling into the inner abyss, as in Clarke's film. All in all, I don't know what to think. 7/10? I don't love it. I'm still thinking about it, but wondering if I was irritated, amused, annoyed or just a little confused. Interesting flick that I'm happy to own."

— Isaac W. (4/5)

What if the meat we eat

"Fascinating and sometimes hard to stomach, but all in all a fascinating film. One has to be very observant as it´s not in sequence or in a time line. Revenge and cannibalism. And yes humor and romance. Can´t wait to see his next film."

— Hansi L. (5/5)

Very strange

"Really liking what Dekanalog is putting out."

— Casey J. (4/5)

Gory but not much else

"If you are looking for a cohesive story, look elsewhere. If you are just in it for the gross out factor, you won't be disappointed."

— James E. (3/5)
