...one can't help but admire any film that features a villain with a penchant for saying things like "I'll decorate my bedroom wall with your skin"...

Borderland takes this libertarian view of paradise (no law, no government, just rich people doing what they want) and turns it on its head in a particularly brutal and ugly way, without expressing a political point of view in a heavy-handed way.

...ultimately descends into a brutal orgy of torture and mutilation that's harrowing to watch, because it's played completely real.

Every once in awhile, a film can defy expectations, and Lionsgate's Borderland is one such case.

Berman balances the weight of the actual events with the desire to mount a simply effective horror story, and I think he pulls it off quite well.
