When Waxing Goes Bad!
During a hazing ritual at Vet school, a vegetarian freshman is made to eat meat. And she gets a taste for it. Any meat. Raw Meat.
Starring Garance Marillier (Solo Rex, Boys on Film 9), Ella Rumpf (War, Tiger Girl), Rabah Nait Oufella (The Class, Nocturama). And written and directed by Julia Ducurnau (Junior, A Taste of Ink).
Raw **There may be Spoilers Ahead**
Do these freshman hazing things actually happen? And to this degree? I’ve been to college and to Uni and I don’t remember anyone mentioning this kind of thing (Admittedly I didn’t live on campus so maybe I missed out?). And it definitely didn’t happen to me. We did have freshers week though – where local businesses gave us free stuff so we’d go shop/drink there.
I get it, everyone’s trying out new things. A little booze, a little shagging, a few drugs, a little human finger. But too much of a good thing can lead to a bad place. And if you go ahead and combine them…well, let’s just say, it’s not gonna be happy days and cosy nights for everyone.
Raw Movie Review Conclusion
I might watch it again – but probably only if I was really bored or someone else wanted to watch it and I happened to be there. Whilst the story was intriguing it took a while to get going. And then sort of slithered around through the rest. Raw certainly kept me interested but sometimes I just wondered why there was a particular scene. It’s gross rather than scary (which is fine by me). If you like your horror a little arty then this is probably one for you.
3.5 stars
