Starring Alex O'LoughlinPatrick ThompsonGabby Millgate,

 

Feed is a genre cluster of Horror, psychological thriller and a foreign film with a lot of suspense and twist and turns.

Mostly in English, ‘Feed’ does, however, have some German subtitles to keep you paying attention.

 

This film at first threw me off. I didn’t really want to watch a movie about large people being a taboo sex crime. I thought it was degrading, however, the description of the movie itself didn’t sound SO bad. “A cybercrime investigator tracks a man (O'Loughlin) suspected of force-feeding women to death.” This movie I later found out was hard to find and is on IMBD’s top most disturbing films list. With the full frontals and seemingly sweet man covering a 700 pound lady in Spaghetti O’s I couldn’t advert my eyes. Call it morbid curiosity! I continued to watch the disturbingly hard to watch scenes, tubes being inserted and forced into the mouth of the woman, I.V.s being hooked up, the dark twists and turns of the evil that takes over the man into this fetish of Feedism. But it is also the obsession that the detective (O’Loughlin) begins to fall into that that gives the film an action packed ride into an unexpected darkness and insanity. One that takes ahold of one man as he tries to save the ‘Feedees’ that are a part of this “game” of cannibalism and obesity.

 

This movie does not hold back. It is full of shock and some would say “sickness” all the way through. Some movies in the ‘disturbing’ category are just that, disturbing. No story line or twists, this movie had an excellent and original theme and exciting story line, however, not for the faint of heart. The actors all put on a great performance and were completely convincing and creepy. The main Feedee ‘Deidre’ played by Australian actress, writer and comedian ‘Gabby Millgate’ her acting was intense and so freaky. Due to her really being that large, the film was intensely realistic. I recommended this film to anyone is into the strange and morbid side of horror that actually has a good story.
