This one looks like it hurts. IFC Films has just acquired VICTIM (not to be confused with THE VICTIM, which we’ve been chatting about a lot lately) and if I could call it anything I’d say it’s a cross between HOSTEL and THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE. At least, those are the two movies that immediately popped up while viewing the teaser for this slick, harsh-looking beast.

IFC sent us a wicked poster, a still and the trailer for VICTIM, which was helmed by the team of Matt Eskandari and Michael Pierce. Peep the latter two below.

Here’s the down and dirty: What’s the ultimate form of revenge? One Young man is about to find out. After being mysteriously kidnapped by a Doctor and his violent henchman, he’s held captive in the converted cellar of an old mansion. For reasons unknown, he’s forced to endure heinous physical and psychological torture, but slowly realizes the worst is yet to come when the Doctor’s brutal plan for him is finally revealed…

IFC Midnight will release VICTIM On Demand (Comcast, Cox, Cablevision, Time Warner, Bright House, Charter and Insight) on NOVEMBER 17th; it will hit select theaters two days later, on the 19th.
