Audience Reviews for Suspended Animation

  • Feb 12, 2009
    When whacked out female hosts tie a guy to a chair and show him their collection of severed, preserved penises, you know he's in for an interesting visit. This actually turned out to be a much better developed story than I anticipated. Not bad for your standard horror fare.
