the mind

Watched wolf creek today. Incredible movie, but one of the hardest things I've ever had to sit through. It wasn't even the gore, as Saw has completely desensitized us against that. Some of us even enjoy it... sylvia...
It was the complete abandonment of all stable mental faculties displayed by John Jarrat in the character of Mick Taylor. The indifference, and enjoyment he portrayed was unbelievably sickening, and why the film was so effective. If you watch movies for the purpose of squirming, I recommend this, although, if that is something you enjoy, you probably won't be as affected by this.

I found myself, at multiple points during the film, almost gagging at the sick ordeal unfolding on the screen. At other points, many times, myself and Fitzy screamed bloody murder at the screen in total and utter frustration.

But we came to this point. To those who've seen the film, you don't need this explanation, but to those who haven't, if you were in a situation where you and a friend were kidnapped, trapped and being tortured/raped by a complete madman. What would you do? Do you stick around, or do you run? Ignore the setting of the middle of butt-fucking nowhere, that's ont as relevant. But seriously, what would you do in this situation? No weapon, the assailant has guns, knives and is completely sick and indifferent. The HONEST answer may surprise you.
