Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Hulkeasexo it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

andersdamkjaer I was looking forward to watching this movie, because it sounded great and the cover... Well the cover was more interesting than the movie itself...I almost always watch a movie all the way through, even the bad ones. But this movie, i had to stop at about 30 minutes in. Yes, that's how awful it is. I don't know how bad the rest of the movie is, but judging on the first 30 minutes, I really doubt that it is getting any better...It begins with this group of young people who walk by a food-stand of some sort (I guess?), and they witness some animal cruelty, which to me is just a sad attempt to get people to watch the movie or get "freaked out". I think that animal cruelty in a movie like this one, is just a way of saying that they are not able to come up with any good material.Anyway, I kept on watching this thing...Later on, the group of young people enter a sleazy adult theater or some place like that. By the way, the group consists of both young males and females, and why would the girls agree to enter such a place to begin with?? When they get in to this theater place, what do they do? Yes, you guessed it! They do drugs... It just makes the characters look so stupid, and the result is that you don't even care about what's going to happen to them, anymore. You want to be able to relate the the main characters in a movie, but who is dumb enough to have the same thoughts as these people: "Hey, we are in a foreign country. We don't know the place, and we just witnessed a local guy being cruel to an animal. It's night and the neighborhood does not seem to be that safe, so why don't we all enter this creepy and sleazy adult theater?" "No, that is probably not a good idea..... UNLESS WE DO DRUGS!!!"I think that this was where I quit watching this movie...So should you watch this movie? Yes, if you like any of the following:Animal cruelty scenesCheap actingDrugsRidiculously bad attempts at creating a Hostel-like movieI would not recommend it... At least not the part of it that I watched.

deaz75 First I'd like to excuse my bad English.I'm not a HOSTEL-hardcore-fan, but I liked that movie nevertheless. Live Feed, however, SUCKED BIG TIME! I have never seen a gore-movie with superb acting, but hey, who's surprised? The acting in Live Feed was... well, not there! I've seen some commented this as it must have been a school project or something. Okey, but not by students in media or acting school. This was NO class at all! And what about the story? A really sad rip-off on Hostel. And what about the gore? What about the psychopathic torture scenes that supposed to make your guts twist and leave you cold-sweating? That was the most disappointing about the hole movie! Short, quick and NO edge. More like an execution rather than a torture. Okey, there where buckets of blood, but it didn't even look real. The slaughtering and the violence reminded more of Braindead than Hostel or any of the Saw-movies. And Braindead was fun! Okey, I laughed at Live Feed a couple of times, but that was more out of disappointment than out of sheer fun!So instead of wasting 80 minutes by watching Live Feed, watch ANYTHING else!

HosleysBack1989 Ryan Nicholson, the director of the fantastic short Revenge film 'Torched' brings us an excellent homage to 70's splatter/exploitation films with his latest film 'Live Feed'. This have everything a horror fan could want, tons of gore, brutal violence, and lots of nudity. The gore FX in Live Feed is outstanding. The actors and actresses all gave really good performances. This is a film made for true horror fans and gore hounds. Ryan Nicholson, in my opinion, is going to be the be the next great horror/exploitation filmmaker, I can't wait to see what he does next. Live Feed is one of the best horror films of 2006. If your looking for a good time, and you want to some great effects, then definitely pick up a copy of Live Feed right now, it's amazing.

Paul Andrews Live Feed is set in some unnamed Chinese/Japanese Asian district somewhere as five American friends, Sarah (Ashley Schappert), Emily (Taayla Markell), Linda (Caroline Chojnacki), Mike (Lee Tichon) & Darren (Rob Scattergood) are enjoying a night on the town & taking in the sights. After a scuffle in a bar with a Japanese Triad boss (Stephen Chang) they decide to check out a porno theatre, as you would. Inside they are separated & quickly find out that the place belongs to the Triad boss who uses it to torture & kill people for reasons which aren't made clear. Can local boy Miles (Kevan Ohtsji) save them?This Canadian production was co-written, produced & directed by Ryan Nicholson who also gets a prosthetic effects designer credit as well, one has to say that Live Feed is another pretty poor low budget shot on a camcorder type horror film that seems to exist only to cash in on the notoriety & success of Hostel (2005) & the mini craze for 'torture porn' as it's become known. According the IMDb's 'Trivia' section for Live Feed writer & director Nicholson wrote it after hearing about certain activities taking place in live sex theatres, for my money I reckon he wrote it after watching Hostel! The script is pretty poor, there is no basic reason given as to why this porno theatre has a big fat ugly freak dressed in bondage gear lurking around torturing & killing people, none. Was it for the Triads? Was it for his pleasure? Was it to make snuff films to sell? Some sort of explanation would have been nice. Also why did he turn on the Triad boss at the end? If your looking for a film with a coherent story then forget about Live Feed. It seemed to me to be some sort of uneasy misjudged mix of sex, S&M, horror, torture, gore & action films which doesn't come off. I mean just setting a horror film in a porn theatre isn't automatically going to make your film any good, there still needs to be a decent script & story, right? The character's were fairly poor clichés & some of their actions & motivations were more than a little bit questionable. It moves along at a reasonable pace, it's fairly sleazy mixing gore, sex & nudity but it does look cheap which lessens the effect.Director Nicholson doesn't do anything special here, the editing is choppy & annoying, he seems to think lighting almost every scene with neon lights is a good idea & the film has a cheap look about it. Available in both 'R' & 'Unrated' versions I saw the shorter cut 'R' version which really isn't that gory but I am prepared to give the benefit of the doubt to the 'Unrated' version & say that it might be much, much gorier but I can't say for sure. There's a fair amount of nudity too if that's your thing. I wouldn't say there's much of an atmosphere or many scares here because there isn't & aren't respectively although it does have a sleazy tone in general which is something it has going for it I suppose.Technically Live Feed isn't terribly impressive, the blood looks a little too watery for my liking & entire scenes bathed in annoying neon lights sometimes makes it hard to tell whats happening, it to often looks like it was shot on a hand-held camcorder & the choppy editing at least on the 'R' rated version is at times an annoying mess. Shot on location in an actual porn theatre somewhere in Vancouver in Canada. The acting is poor, sometimes I couldn't tell if the actresses in this were supposed to be crying or laughing...Live Feed is not a film I would recommend anyone to rush out & buy or rent, I didn't think much of it with it's very weak predictable storyline lacking exposition & which goes nowhere, poor acting & less than impressive gore (at least in the 'R' rated cut anyway). Watch either Hostel films again or instead as they are superior.
