alexshadow My personal impression of this movie is so bad , i mean i've seen over 1000 horror movies , and belive me , this is the worst ... The movie is so unsatisfy to watch and si unrralateble for his gender is just pure agony to watch it .

znegative Jug face was one of those movies I chose to watch because I was getting low on films I wanted to see with my Amazon Shudder subscription. Prior to this one, I watched 'Shuttle' and started watching 'A lonely place to die', and though Jugface is more of a horror film than the latter mentioned features which fall into the 'psychological thriller' category, it is by far much better.Jug Face kind of reminds me of a Cormac McCarthy story for some reason. The plot centers around a young girl living in a backwoods and backwards community who becomes impregnated by her brother. The community is based around a belief in a magical pit that in return for human sacrifice, can cure disease and illness. The community potter supposedly receives visions from the pit of the face of the person-to-be-sacrificed, and then makes a clay sculpture of their face (hence 'Jug Face'). Of course it comes to be that the face that the potter makes is that of our pregnant protagonist, who hides the jug face before anyone can see it, causing a chain of tragedy that eventually propels her to try to escape her community and the spirits that dwell within it.Despite the ridiculous premise which definitely has overtones of dark humor, Jug Face is a pretty intense film. It's the kind of movie that will have you laughing one minute, but unlike many other 'horror-comedy' the director knows when to reel it back in so not to sacrifice any of the suspense.Jug Face is low budget, but the cinematography, acting and directing, and even the soundtrack is all top-notch. Not mind blowing by any means, but a good movie.

avidnewbie I have just finished watching JUG FACE for the first time and I must admit that this is not at all how I expected to feel. The title alone does nothing to promote high expectations. Neither does the few clips that have been showing on the previews from other dvds. This is by all accounts a low budget affair but it still has ...something. There's not a lot of astounding visual effects to distract you or sugarcoat the story but the one thing this film has which is easy to spot is authenticity. It is not the shadowy beings that roam the woods that scare you. It's not the unknown entity that dwells in the pit. Those things are really just there to provide a focus for the real horrors in this movie which are the people that live there. The unshakable faith that the followers have in their myths and the fervor that is palpable in their rhetoric seems to dance just behind their eyes. The conviction that empowers them to commit unspeakable acts. These are the things that stand out about JUG Face. It's an absolutely enthralling depiction of single mindedness and ignorant worship. The characters here are convincing if not always polished. You really feel that they don't believe they have any other choices than the ones which they are compelled to make. They don't question their lives they simply live them out until the pit chooses them. However, once she is chosen, Ada must make a choice of her own...With a larger budget this could have been a masterpiece of modern horror. As is, this is recommended for fans of true dread and moodily atmospheric thrillers. 7 out of 10.

jrogers-6 I knew at first that this movie was a low budget and that was fine with me because some low budget movie are really awesome, but when I was watching this one, I thought at first it was going to be good low budget horror, but it changed about half way through the movie and I was disappointed. Maybe they will start improving on some low budget films and at least make the story line better.I hope the actors realized this in making the movie, I know the producers know they are not working with a lot of money but it has to be able to be real or at least feel real. If they would have re-shot the last half of the movie it would have been better.
