Philip (Patrick Thompson) is an Australian cybercrime investigator, and
one of the best in the field, which is why his services are wanted all
over the world. But his latest case, when he captured a cannibal (Adam
Hunt) and his victim (Nicholas Coghlan) in the act, has left him a little
unhinged, which is why he's ordered to take some time of - time he uses to
track down a guy, Michael (Alex O'Loughlin), who has made it his habit to
feed grossly overweight women to death - live on the internet. To capture
Michael in the act, Philip travels around half the world to the USA, where
it doesn't take him too long to find out Michael's exact address. But
while he expects to arrive as a knight in shining armour, he's in for a
shock when he learns that Michael has long expected him - he even knows
his name -, and Michael's victim Deidre (Gabby Millgate) doesn't even want
to be "saved" but rather enjoys Michael's attention ...
Now above everything else, Feed is a deeply disturbing
film, and disturbing not so much for its at times intentionally gross
imagery but because of the philosophy behind it that despite its clearly
despicable subject matter blurs the line between good and evil. And thanks
to a clever script and a directorial effort that finds haunting parallels
between seemingly unrelated scenes, this has turned out into a very
exciting thriller, that's of course also helped by a very solid cast. But
that it's certainly not a film for everyone as some scenes are just hard
to swallow.
