I've seen it.
It's basically meant to the the home videos of a group of young killers. They film a few day to day events along with a lot of torture/killing. It is made to look like a poor quality home movie that has been dubbed numerous times - frame moves around alot (as if the camera is being held by hand) and the picture goes in and out of focus and is full of video artefacts/imperfections.
It doesn't have much more of a "story" than this.
It is full of many very nasty scenes of torture and depravity. One area where this film succeeds is that it truly makes you hate the protagonists.
The gore effects are very good. However sometimes it is hard to see them/what is going on because of the (intentionally) poor picture quality and camerawork. Vomiting also features somewhat throughout the film.
Some of the scenes (especially near the end) and very disturbing.
I can't say I really "liked" this film. It's not something that you would watch to "like". I felt bad just for watching it!
There is no real storyline, and I can't imagine much repeat viewing value. However it is certainly an experience.
Still, as far as scenes that have really disturbed me/been hard to watch, I think the top of my list is still the scenes of violence in the nightclub in Irreversible. I have watched those scenes a few times and still find it difficult.
