Michael Hanake meets the Blair Witch Project in Kim Gok's Exhausted, a vicious kick in the pants to everyone in the audience, all in the name of "style." A man meets a mute woman, and as any reasonable person would do in such a situation, makes her his prostitute. But the pimping is the least of our problems. As we get exhausted by the grainy faux-16mm camerawork, the film gets increasingly deranged. The closest thing we get to a sympathetic character is the pimp, simply because he's got too much self-respect to fuck a mute whore. Everyone else is either a gory mess, or a gory mess in disguise. Even the prostitute, which even a thug like Lars von Trier would make likeable, comes off as a delirious scary woman whose shrieks strike like blows to the jugular.
Kim Gok has seemingly abandoned the Marxist critiques of his short films, going instead for mindless brutality which culminates in an endless bloody freak-show involving, among other things, a pair of scissors going where pairs of scissors should not go. In the middle of the bloodbath, we get an extended long take of the beaten prostitute's near-dead face, but it does not elicit sympathy or pity. In fact, images of the victim only make us shy away in shock. (Indeed, the extended sequence led to continuous walk-outs during the Pusan screening.) The long take invites us to stare, but it assumes we're as sadistic as the victimizer (and the film) is. Meanwhile the sound-effects (mostly a rumbling bassline that shakes the theater) pulsates with pure wickedness. With Hanake, shock creates reflection, which asks that we be critical. Here, we only want to escape. I suppose Exhausted has some virtues; the shots of drilling machines and factories provide a mesmerizing phallic backdrop to the pimp and prostitute's pursuits. But everything else hurts too much. At least Kim Ki-duk lets us breathe. Exhausted makes Bad Guy look like Lady and the Tramp. (asiaarts.ucla.edu)
女人累，人机合一活受罪
够烂但也够看，尤其是最后一部神神叨叨且画质感人的美国政治狂热分子，和当今的美国人估计也差不多。。。
最近几年伪记录恐怖片越来越少了，久违的刺激！
这个系列基本成了伪纪录恐怖片的归纳盒，最早几年由《鬼影实录》掀起的伪纪录恐怖片风潮早早落入了沉寂，这个系列却有能成为年货的潜质，成本低口味重的你就可劲造吧。 提莫·塔哈亚托再度施展了自己的极恶口味，可以的。
重金属B级异闻，金属改造人太赞了。7.8/10.
喷浆女记者，大凶守夜妞看得真过瘾，本想趁着激动劲儿直接干上5星…机械改造妹和吸血鬼炸弹人的节奏直接喊了cut，因为Dr. 和 Commander 的絮絮叨叨真是破坏节奏，大大削减了故事后半段的爆发快感~用来串故事的主线“工具”剧情，已成可有可无的存在。
除了亚裔机器人的比较刺激外，画面剧情都不太行
喜欢storm drain 很喜欢the subject 尽管是最跑题的一个故事 滤镜真的带感
印尼拍的3最好 剩下的粗制滥造 非要加个又闪又跳的录像滤镜太刻意了
看完恐怖片系列87：致命录像带94.
《致命录像带94》★★★，依旧是本系列的一贯风格，不过这次稍显创新，让每个小故事间有了串联。

人体机械改造总能激起我生理上的猎奇和理智上的厌恶。（最不能理解刷屏“机械飞升”的弱智小学生）
比3好看！！！每一段都精彩，红脖子那个故事我比较无感，前三个都是我的菜。这种小众狂欢的恐怖片，是绝对不能单单看那几个短评就判定是否好看的
那个说“什么年代了随便拿个手机拍都比这画质好”的短评太好笑了
这个系列当故事会看，这部就第三段人体改造的故事比较喜欢。
7.1分。这7.1分全部给第三个弗兰肯斯坦式的故事，真的够重口味又有意思。
几个故事都还不错，后面二个故事铺垫要长一点，不过主线和前几部没什么联系，也没后续彩蛋，更像一部衍生电影
【3星半】年度R级类型电影大赏，直接被溶解掉下来的脸皮、半头骨半生状态游走、非法人体机械改造、不死身和堪比小丑回魂那样的开嘴尖牙巨口，世界观和脑洞眼界再一次被奇异猛烈地拓展了，谈不上喜欢但是真的有点东西。
