I have to say, it's definitely a disturbing and provocative movie in a torture/horror sense. It's tough anymore to create a movie that really pushes the envelope. The Saw movies... you know what to expect by now. Hostel and those types of movies are more about pleasure seeking from torture and murder. This movie is kind of out there on its own in an experimental/mentally fucked up kind of way, and is all the more terrifying because it's attempting to do things by the book, medically speaking.
I think people are more terrified by things based in realism than horror based in pure fantasy. The Saw movies, for example, well, people aren't really building those kinds of fucked up killing machines, but I never felt those movies were entirely "about" the torture and murderous aspect.
