Synopsis

Novella McClure is like most struggling actresses in Los Angeles: she's in her early 30s, her fake name sounded cooler ten years ago, and she hasn't landed a role in three years. To top it all off, she's developed a disturbing habit of eating her own flesh. Novella desperately tries to hide her strange condition from her motherly landlord, Eesha, and somewhat psychopathic best friend, Candice, but her body and mind continue to deteriorate in the depressing world of failed auditions and sketchy night clubs. Can a romantic relationship with her psychiatrist prevent her from self destruction? Or will her fatal habit continue to eat away at her?

Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
dabcid So I'm a huge fan of horror/gore films always have been my whole life but i usually watch older 80s horror films and I was doing some research on newer movies to see if there's anything still good out there and I read a review on this And didn't know how I felt because it just sounded odd. So I decided I'd give it a shot and Let me tell you this is one hell of a movie I've never seen anything like it. It's not like the movies I usually watch but something about it just got to me and I was like damn this is wild. So if your a horror/gore fan trying to see something wild. I'd say this is worth the watch
Michael Ledo Novella (Maggie Maddock) is an out of work actress in Hollywood and has been for some time. Her friend Candice (Ali Francis) is a psychotic heir dresser. At some point in time Novella starts to eat her own body parts. Pretty much it with some bad actor side characters. Apparently this was meant to be some kind of metaphor on how people will eat themselves alive for fame or something. The confusing part was that she did have steal sauce and hot sauce in the frig and never used it. Kinds makes the whole story unbelievable.I never saw the sense in the film and the acting and basic plot was bad.Guide: F-bomb, sex? No real nudity.
KineticSeoul This is a really gruesome and gory movie that is actually quite depressing to watch. So if you have a weak stomach, I suggest you stay away from eating anything while watching this. This delves heavily on false hope, misunderstanding and the reality of certain people and how getting used can effect someone. The plot is about a shallow woman Novella McClure trying to make it as an actress. Thinking that it will solve all her problems because she is unhappy with the situation she is in and herself. When her emotional instability really starts to kick in because of her past and her feelings of constantly being used and manipulated kicks in. Anxiety, depression and pain follows, thus she starts to eat away at her own flesh. Some scenarios and situations didn't make much sense, especially near the end. But besides that, this is somewhat of a realistic portrayal of what can happen. When someone puts all your hope in one thing and constantly being disappointed with it and the limits constantly getting pushed can do to someone. I would have more sympathy for the characters, but sometimes the stupidity and emotional instability took away from it. Overall, this is a low budget horror movie that is worth seeing. It can resonate with a lot of adults. The actress that played Candice the best friend of the main protagonist did a really fine job though. She sort of reminded me of a Catwoman like version of Scarlett Johansson.7.3/10
Hui TY this is my first movie review and i don't really understand what spoiler means..the poster,the name are very attractive, i was thinking if it is like any other usual horror bloody film. maybe cannibal girls eating people?Surprisingly the story is talking about an actress in Hollywood start eating herself because of starve.I think this movie has a beautiful frame which is very suitable for the story, glory bright color frame in the intro of the start, interior design and how they dressed up is fit, art director did a great job. and those bloody scenes are very successful... they really make me feeling not well, great job! when i see Novella with a makeshift cone it totally reminds me of the puppy in the beginning, the ending is corresponding to the beginning, love it. the direction is new for me, break the boring standard of horror film!also.. something that i think could be better,In the movie, we don't see any expression of every character hide behind, did Dr.Simon really lies? did Tracy lies? Novella have no struggles to believe in everyone easily? Novella and Candice have a best friend tattoo, whats about it? when i thought the story line is focus on Candice and Novella when everyones dead, Novella killed Candice. could mentioned more about the relationship between Candice and Novella (for example, Candice could have more expression before Novella kills her) , or the background of Novella, how come she start eating herself? and why she eats her heart out at the end??
