Ravenous, appeared on the shelves of my local DVD store without flourish or announcement.

But seeing that it contained Robert Carlisle and Guy Pearce (who'd recently managed a great performance in Memento)I thought I'd give it a crack.

A deeply dark film set in a dark era this film exudes atmosphere, and while, as the other chap says it isn't a true horror, its certainly scary enough. No its difficult, part horror, thriller and dark comedy the film is difficult to 'genre-lise' in that way. But it does well to provide aspects that cover all three.

One of the best films I've ever seen.
