10 Horror Films That Exist Purely To Shock And Disgust

7. Murder-Set-Pieces (2004)

No one can accuse the makers of Murder-Set-Pieces of false advertising. The film's entire plot is right there in its title. Featuring over 30 killings, director Nick Palumbo's homicidal narrative has little else on its agenda outside of giving its antagonist, simply named The Photographer (Sven Garrett), an uninterrupted stage to hack and slash his way through every hooker in sight. His day job is to take sexy photos of models, but Palumbo is hardly concerned with developing the character beyond "guy who murders for pleasure." Murder-Set-Pieces desperately wants to be disturbing and controversial, but it never surpasses the quality level of infantile amateur rubbish due to the lack of logic and incompetent plotting. Whenever there isn't a rape or torture going on, the film is dreadfully boring and nearly impossible to sit through. Heck, even when there is rape and torture going on, it gets boring rather quickly. Palumbo€™s film is likely to appeal to only the least discerning of genre fans, and even then as nothing more than a passing curiosity, and one which fails to live up to its reputation.
