Ravage

About This Movie

Ravage (1997) is a dark dive into the psyche of vengeance, blending crime, fantasy, and horror in a way that's pretty gritty. The story follows Gregory Burroughs, a criminal psychologist, whose life spirals after his family's murder. It really captures that raw, unsettling vibe, thanks to its practical effects that, while not always polished, contribute to the overall atmosphere. The pacing can be a bit uneven at times, but it works to build that tension. Performances lean towards intense, especially as Gregory's obsession unfolds—there's this haunting quality to it. It’s distinct in how it marries psychological depth with visceral horror, exploring themes of loss and the darker side of revenge.
