I was a a Melbourne festival screening and in front of the audience in the after screening Q&A the film maker said "I love seeing torture in movies !! " or something of equal specificity and meaning. So there you have it. Evidence that this sequence of torture scenarios were designed to be the focus in the footage Mr Kastrissios shot. Oh, there's a scant story of sentimental revenge added, floating almost invisibly away in the distance, but don't let that get in the way of the depravity and gore you love so much.
