Alienated teen Pauline struggles with the pressures of fitting into high school, pleasing her mother and a burning desire to lose her virginity.

Wasn't really paying attention to it at the start. Glad I got into it. A lot of weird and funny trash. Some disturbing gore stuff. Some of the dialogue had me laughing. I suppose it's a typical extreme weird outsider character movie, but things are above average. Good setting with an interesting family dynamic. The performances were all good. The dialogue was good. The ending was pretty sad and scary. It's like a gory version of a Todd Solondz movie.

Writing wasn't the greatest, there was some wooden and probably unintentional funny dialogue in it. The ending was predictable. The gore factor was minimal (imo). The reason to watch this tho is AnaaLynne McCord. Her performance alone makes this worth seeing. However, I do have a question. Why were Malcom McDowell, Marlee Matlin, Matthew Gray Gubler and to a lesser extent Ray Wise and John Waters in this movie.

What the hell did I just watch? I saw the comments and thought okay sure I'll give this a try, but yikes this movie is psychotic. The acting is good, the story is freaky, and by the end I honestly just felt like the movie's aim was a bit off. I give it a 6 because by all means and respects I think the movie hits the nail on the head for what it's aiming for, otherwise I'd of ranked it lower, but I can't go above 6 because they paint the lead as a sympathetic character when in truth she's just a psychopath. Say what you want about bullying and what not, but people like that are treated the way they are for reasons sometimes, and several times during the movie you see those reasons. The end of the movie is just downright sad and shows why people like this don't deserve sympathy, they deserve to be locked up or killed.

A weird, violent cousin of Napoleon Dynamite. This is daring, unconventional. For me this is what cinema is about. Not for every taste but I loved it.

Weird, dark, disturbing, funny and bloody! ***Excision*** is a twisted psychological coming of age body horror with themes of mental illness, family values, religion... I was going to say it's about identity too but not really. From the very first scene we see Pauline she knows exactly who she is, i More

The last cut is the deepest!

AnnaLynne McCord stars as Pauline, a disturbed high school misfit who has delusions of becoming a surgeon. Dominated by her over bearing mother, Pauline battles with her sanity and unhealthy obsessions.

Superb, a teen based horror that’s pungent with everything f More

Making a movie like this work is a delicate balancing act, and it almost worked, aside from the ending. The movie is really about an upper middle-class family - much like American Beauty - comprised of: a toxic mother, a codependent father, and the two sisters - Grace, and Pauline. Pauline is our le More
