If you want to watch a movie that made Margaret gag, then I recommend this one.
This absolutely has to be the best incest/revenge, comedy/torture drama I have ever seen. What a great/insane film.
The basic premise, which starts out the bax with a bang, is that a man is kidnapped, held for 15 years and when he is released he is tortured by a Big Brother-esque villian that sees his every move and is always one step ahead of him. It's kind of like a reverse Ocean's Eleven, Twelve or Thirteen. Instead of our wildly stylish and clever protagonists being one step ahead, always out thinking and out planning the bad guys, it's the wildly stylish and clever, incredibly evil villian.
There are plot twists and there are teeth pried out with hammers. There is a wonderful fight scene with 20 guys attacking one. There is a tongue removed with scissors. It's a winner, a visceral thrill ride that is said to have inspired the Virginia Tech shooter. So, if you've been thinking about going insane and shooting up your school, this could be the movie for you.
