Takes place in 1985 when movies where being heavily censored, under the belief that fictional violence induces real-life violence. Nothing like it is now, now we censor the truly distrubing stuff like shakespear's plays and one in every three online comments.
The movie is extremely boring, it's badly driven and it feels inconsistent. The mystery of what happened to the MC's sister doesn't take you very far, as it seems plotted by a junior psychology student, with the whole "surrender to the beast" thing which I guess has something sexual to it.

Some reviewers talked about being groundbreaking for the British horror scene, but I don't think it was. If this was the best Great Britain has to offer, that's the last British movie I ever watch.
Edit 2025: I've been searching and while I watched very little predominantly british cinema I'd say that, other than a sherlock holmes adaptation to TV series, yeah, mostly bad. From terrible to midly passable.
