Constantly on the hunt and suffering from hallucinations that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing women and savagely beating them to death. Meanwhile, a woman is luring men into a violent end, by way of her knife. Driven by the same force to make the opposite sex suffer, the killers’ fates intertwine. The two must face off in a battle to the death, in which they are forced to reveal the horrible truth behind their addiction to murder.
“Brutal” takes an interesting approach to its visuals, drawing heavy influence from Western “Grindhouse” films, using a filter to make the footage appear grainy, damaged, and with light and color fluctuations. Unfortunately, the visual styling ends up feeling misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other aspects of the “Grindhouse” genre. Despite trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematography is also a step above most “Grindhouse” productions, with Takashi Hirose proving he has talent behind the camera. Exterior shots to those taking place in small spaces are all competently framed, lit, and transition well. The decision to add an effect on top of the work hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of desperation to try to capture a certain type of nostalgia with the audience, instead of relying on its own strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can hurt a production so much.
The story of “Brutal” is simple but effective, it does attempt some sort of social commentary about the violent nature of men and women, but it does not offer enough depth into the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. The film does end on a strong note with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to gross some out, while giving others a chuckle. In spite of its simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfortable and enjoy the challenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard.
p.s.能看到这部电影的人已经是少数，要么是资深电影爱好者，要么是编剧雷神的粉丝，大家挑剔一点也正常。
浪费抄袭来的设定，内容太苍白。垃圾，也就骗骗没看过彗星和邮轮的观众。
毕竟看了雷神那么多短视频，也应该尊重地看看他的电影作品。能找到《恐怖游轮》和《彗星来的那一夜》的痕迹，但也看出了雷神想探讨的是人生的多重选择和情感记忆的关联，可就是没把主题说透，另外悬念竟然在一开始就从女主口中说出，遗憾……
感觉在大陆电影里是第1次看到这样的类型，一直想着即使做不到创新，也可以先从模仿开始，也想尝试着做。
低配版于和伟霍思燕火风上演了彗星来的那一夜
拿到了编剧雷神的签名海报吼吼。开心
小成本国产科幻片，虽然格局不大，但有的地方确实看得人头皮发麻，挺不错的
音乐很棒，时而舒缓时而紧促，让我不断受到惊吓，心脏噗噗乱跳。
实拍景色跟软科幻内核决定了他的可看性，但国产科幻的受众就决定了本片的评分不会高
恐怖游轮+彗星来的那一夜，抄袭还是借鉴不重要，重要的是拍得不咋地
11.13 什么鬼啊，这种电影也能上院线？小成本要不然拼创意要不然拼质感，轮到这片啥也没有啊。把《恐怖游轮》和《彗星来的那一夜》概念捏一块儿就当创新了是吧？怎么吹，汉化得还行？影像质感也不是很差而是完全没有，所有“演员”都嘬着牙胡说八道，快别拿网大给这片开脱了，这两年一流网大还真的能看。最鸡贼的就是这套噱头，科幻+国产+小成本+好莱坞，拿到导演请指教也就是毕志飞那个档次
给五星鼓励下吧，叙事逻辑有点问题，但是比很多网剧好多了，爽就完了
其实挺无聊的，迷你版《彗星来的那一夜》。剧情推动基本靠嘴说，演员演技有待提高。郑雷还是很有想法的，只是现实很骨感，仍需努力。
但是我不感觉是抄袭 导演水平不错，剪辑和节奏把握的很好
设定新奇，结局也给人以开放和遐想，小成本做到这样已经比所谓的概念大片强太多，还是多多支持鼓励
居然还行。虽说各种拼接缝合吧，但完成度还可以，毕竟小制作。结局没有强行伟光正可以加一分。
后半部分崩了，像个学生作业。不过黑龙江中俄边境的嘉荫县取景太美了，国内很少有这种氛围的景色。
国内少有的科幻悬疑大片，全程仅三名演员，电影质感很不错，观影过程中烧脑而又紧张，这个类型的电影国内真的少见，好莱坞风格蛮值得观看，推荐呀
如果是首尾呼应，中间的林场、会所都是女主昏迷时的梦境的话，剧本还是挺好的。不然的话，剧情漏洞太多。
片子本身有很多问题，从制作层面看就很粗糙，两个主演能力有限，明显驾驭不了长片。其实与其用这种有一些表演经验的小演员，不如找一些新人来演也许会有惊喜。唯一能值得说的大概就只有剧本了。如果这个创意真是导演自己写出来没有借鉴别的作品，我觉得还是挺厉害的。希望好莱坞翻拍的话，能做的更好吧。
