One seriously messed up movie. 'Silence of the Lambs' was thrilling, 'Red Dragon' was disturbing, 'Hannibal' was just plain gross, so what made me watch this one is beyond me. In hindsight I think I must have had a momentary lapse of reason because I just thought this one was creepy to the max!
Young Hannibal watches his parents die in front of him, with nothing he could do to prevent it. On top of that he has to watch his sister being eaten by a gang of renegade mercenaries fleeing the German/Russian war. he gets held virtually a prisoner in his old house, which has now become an orphanage, until he escapes. Then things get really nasty as his revenge starts to shape up.
Brutal, in a clam sadistic way, the character of Hannibal Lector seems to have mellowed in his old age, if this is what his youth started out as. So if you found 'Silence' distrubing, you are going to want to skip this one. On the flip side of the coin, if you found it quite tame, you might want to give this one a go for a bit more sheer raw bloody chrills.
