the idea itself of a person somehow getting into a cult for some reason and that cult starting to cut of prices of humans.
this idea of being in that situation having to cut of body parts of someone alive is horrifying. so there’s the horror aspect.
but there is no explanations, no reasons given and no actual answers as to how or why Kline was even in that situation in the first place.
this book counts mostly on shock factors and brutality in stead of good writing, characters with characteristics or actual plot.
that’s not something that works for me.
i need something beside just one thing slowly building up on the next with similar horrific moments happening one after the other.
for what this did? it was doing it too drawn out and slow on to many pages.
it would have worked so much better if the entire thing would just have been about kline being in the situation of having to mutilate himself and what happens if he doesn’t and leave it at that’s
this wasn’t for me and i can’t really see why people would love it other than enjoying the repetitive gore and violence like a horrendously bad horror movie with bo budged.
