Horrible has some gore, but nothing as shocking and tasteless as in Anthro. The atmosphere is nil due to terrible lighting and dull locations. The movie seems to have been shot in a broom closet, the producers house and on a service road. Even good ol' Luigi Montefiorre's presence is somewhat muted by the decision to have him go sans makeup wearing blue jeans and what appears to be a dickies work shirt. Rather uninspired.

The ending was kinda fun though.
I liked Absurd a lot more than Anthropophagous :)

I hear what you're saying tho I just thought Absurd was a better crafted film especially it pace and acting. I dug how the killer wasn't dressed up like a monster because it made the story a little more believable. I think it's a solid slasher.
