Raw (2016)

I will never eat meat again. There was almost not a single scene in Raw that didn't disgust me. That's a big compliment for a horror flick, but in my case the disgust wasn't enjoyable. I was predominantly appalled, and looked away a number of times. As an adolescent I devoured gore horror, but these days I want a horror film to thrill me to the edge of my seat, not to repulse me to the back of my seat. In conclusion I'll paraphrase good ol' Sgt. Murtaugh from Lethal Weapon: "I'm too old for this shit." 👨‍🦳
