I actullay kinda thought the phase where we compared movies to HOSTEL and SAW was over, but not for MEAT GRINDER, a horrorshow that came out in Thailand last year and proudly compares itself to the two. It’s making its way to DVD overseas later this summer, and we’ve got some bloody stills to share with you, as well as the ghoulish synopsis.
The over-the-top gorefest stars Mai as a deranged woman who runs a noodle stall and is hearing voices in her head all the time. When she finds a dying man in her stall one night, she gets the idea to chop him up, and grind the body parts into meatballs as ingredients for her noodle soup. It turns out to be a popular dish, and as the stall gets more and more business, she must find a steady supply of fresh human meat to feed her customers…
Nothing really fresh or innovative about that idea (ever seen DUMPLINGS? *shudder*), but if done well it can still be demented fun. At the very least it’ll be really friggin’ gooey if the stills are any indication. Check ’em out below; this sucker hits DVD in the UK on AUGUST 23rd; hopefully it will roll out everywhere soon after.
