Watch Excess Flesh For Free

Wonderful character development!

So much average

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Jennifer (Mary Loveless) and Jill (Bethany Orr) are the odd couple. Jennifer is a model and Jill is 130 pound bulimic. Jill's mother suffers from substance abuse and Jill is clearly not wrapped too tight. Jennifer has gotten out of an abusive relationship and mistreats Jill. Jennifer pushes Jill until we reach the picture on the DVD cover.We get a lot of close ups of the girls eating and smacking their lips, talking while eating, and spitting out their food. They rented the apartment with the chains in the wall, something that must be an option in LA.I imagine this is supposed to me a story of two abused people who come to live together and make matters worse. I got bored watching them eat scene after scene after scene. More drama than thriller. It was like watching "Knock Knock" without the guy plus food.Guide: F-word, sex, nudity (Bethany Orr, Mary Loveless)

I have mixed feelings about this film.The acting is good and the basis of the story is good. But the execution of bringing them together with technical aspects of film making lets it down and they just don't work together nicely in a smoothly coherent way.There are lingering scenes which linger for no reason. They go on too long after the point has been made and don't really flow into the next scene too well. I found at times there were some scene cuts that could have done with a little more visual explanation to flow - rather than abruptly jump from one concept to another.This could have been a very good film if a bit more care had been taken in telling the story. I am sure it made sense in the crew's mind but they didn't relay it to the audience.The acting was good - especially the two lead females.Such a shame.

I can immediately tell that this flick isn't for everybody because there's a bit of vomiting here and there and it moves slowly from a normal flick into a psychological flick towards a bit of horror towards the end. It's all about being fat or being skinny. The fat one not being popular and is always eating things, fast food and unhealthy food. The skinny one is popular and can eat what she wants and is having sex all the time. Living together of course the fat one can't take it anymore and wants to become the skinny popular girl. Or is there more to watch. I can understand that it's all the same girl having problems with eating. Which one you are watching is up to you and will be revealed towards the end.What some will have problems with is the use of a lot of slo-mo shots. And they always include eating going into the mouth or being spit out or vomiting. The horror towards the end does deliver here and there but for many I can tell it will all be too late because the first half of this flick it's about the characterisation. Not for everybody or every body...Gore 0/5 Nudity 0,5/5 Effects 2/5 Story 2,5/5 Comedy 0/5

6.25 of 10. Are they roommates or just 2 versions of the same person happening within a psychotic aspiring model with a tendency to binge on eating, sex, and self abuse? Either way, you get 2 similar looking actresses, a slender model and a plump mess, playing the lead rolls.As simply horror and gore, it doesn't pick up until the latter part of the film. The first half is essentially dedicated to setting up the characters and their/her various disorders/psychoses. That does set up a mystery angle to it and make the film more enjoyable and less predictable as to where it's going.It's rare to get so much character depth, plot, gross-out scenes, horror, and hot ass shots in the same film. Worth a watch even though it makes a mistake at the end with not really completing the story and going with more of a setup for a sequel.
