Now one thing's for certain, The Profane Exhibit is not a movie for everybody, and even if one's into horror this is one disturbing movie, as when it comes to the evil of humankind there's hardly a low this film doesn't sink to. But to label this film as pure exploitation would be missing the point, as in all its depictions of cruelty, the film's segments are well told and rather than being sensationalist they are disturbing for mirroring the evils of humankind. And of course, some segments of this very diverse array of directors from all over hit home harder than others, but this is definitely a movie that will stay with its audience for quite some time after watching.
