This psycho-sexual horror isn't for all the horror buffs walking around because it doesn't contain straight horror but it tricks your mind into a depraved ride between humiliation and incest.Made by David Blythe who gave us Death Warmed Up (1984) before we ever heard of Peter Jackson was a well known kiwi exploitation director. And it shows because this is to be honest another exploitation flick. It do has nudity but one of that kind that isn't attractive and surely isn't for the easily offended. It contains some red stuff here and there and even that can shock people, just see the shower scene once the daughter discovers the blood of her mother. David didn't add gore in it but at the final we do have a slashing that is ultra gory. But many will have turned it off because it's such a weird flick, in the line of Eraserhead (1977°. I like those kind of flicks were they go into the mind of sick people like for example The Dead Girl (2006). I found the acting sublime by all. A supernatural sickie that takes you back to the old school exploitations. Full of weird shots and offending sexuality. A classic.Gore 1/5 Nudity 1/5 Effects 1/5 Story 3,5/5 Comedy 0/5

When a film opens by mercilessly depicting a penis being gruesomely castrated with a pair of scissors, you know that, if nothing else, you're in for something interesting. And Wound is just that, unrelenting for its entire 77 minute runtime.A mere five minutes following the genital mutilation, a nude, submissive housewife is tortured by her "master" in front of a camera. The nightmarish imagery does not end there. Other eccentric scenes include an animalistic rape by a man in a pig mask, incestuous teat suckling and a nasty birthing scene featuring a deformed, blood-spewing vagina.As a result of the questionable content, Wound stirred up a bit of controversy in its home country of New Zealand. While people unfamiliar with the genre might make a fuss about it, the graphic content doesn't hold a candle to the likes of A Serbian Film or even The Human Centipede. Nothing but overblown claims to drum up press.Between the bizarre sequences lies the perplexing story of a mother uniting with her daughter. The plot is not easy to follow, but there are two sides to the story. On one hand, an orphan, Tanya (Te Kaea Beri), searches for the mother that she has never met. Meanwhile, the mother, Susan (Kate O'Rourke), believes that her unborn daughter is taking over her life.Susan struggles with metal illness, which accounts for the film's nonlinear structure. Acclaimed filmmaker Ken Russell (The Who's Tommy) hailed the movie as a "masterpiece." While I wouldn't go that far, Wound does share the unsettling, dreamlike atmosphere with Russell's Altered States.Writer/director David Blyth has been in the industry for some 35 years, but Wound feels more like an independent filmmaker's early attempt at experimentation with controversial issues. Blyth, whose most notable effort is helming a handful of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers episodes, recently took off the better part of a decade to focus on documentary work. Wound marks his return to features and, perhaps, a rebirth as a director as well.

This movie was absolutely positively terrible. I would have rather watched the Human Centipede ten times in a row than have watched this movie for even five minutes (and that is saying something because the Human Centipede was a pretty terrible movie also). There was no gore in whatever awful version I downloaded and I could not follow it at all. Some people said you need to be artsy or whatever to watch this, no you just have to be really high or as crazy as the bitch in the movie. If you ever decide you want to watch this, do yourself a favor, and go find a gun make sure that it is loaded put it up to your head and please pull the trigger that would be more fun than sitting through that horrific thing that is unfortunately called a movie. :)

First line on the movie poster/DVD cover was The film NG tried to ban. My question is banned for what, being boring!! I gave it a three based on the cinematography that was decent during most of the movie. The acting had hints of being good, but could not generate enough interest to keep me from falling asleep during this snooze-fest. The movie tries to take you through a series of scenes that were supposed to be psychotic and abnormal behavior, but I have seen better without those mediocre scenes. If you are into cut-scenes without a trend of thought and a man wearing the mask of a farm animal, then this is for you. The plot did not have a real build up. This was not real horror picture,or thriller. The only thrill I got was ejecting this from my media player. It tried to be a shocker but fell real short on the storyline (plot) and sub-par acting.
