[edit] Plot
The film begins with a mentally retarded boy being bullied by a gang of bullies. Later, one of the bullies is kidnapped and brought to a room. He is strapped to a chair, tortured and beaten, but manages to free himself and stab the kidnapper. He and a girl escapes, but it turns out the kidnapper survived and sneaks up behind them. The film ends when he is about to kill them. The credits roll accompanied by "Die Motherfucker Die" by Dope.
[edit] Reaction
Both students and teachers at Ringve Videregående Skole were disgusted by the film.
[edit] Possible sequel
It has been stated through multiple sources that it will be a sequel to the blockbuster Slaughter. Simen Østby will be director of photography and assistent director once again. Alexander Strand is the only confirmed actor, who will return as the estranged and mentally retarded boy. The film is said to have more "character stuff" than the first film, and a tremendous ending.
[edit] Trivia
- There were several rumors about the plot. One source say the film was originally going to portray Pia Skog and Fredrik Myklebust as two bald, child-kidnapping, disfigured and disease-spreading cannibals. The idea was scrapped as the writers thought it was too funny.
- On the official Slaughter fan page, Vidar Aune says: "Jo Even Bjørke, the first day he shows up, he says, ‘I don't even know what I'm going to do.’ And I’m like, ‘Well, just do something and scream in agony’. We yell ‘action’ and all of a sudden he started improvising and it was gold. It was like the best stuff I’d ever seen and he’s insane."
- Real meat is used for gore.
- When the boy is about to be tortured by the kidnapper, all he’s quotes are improvised.
- The bullies in the kidnapper’s flashback were all students on Ringve Media.
- Vidar T. Aune got the idea for the sequel while filming this film, but kept it a secret. Now it's not a secret anymore.
- At the test screening, it was revealed that the the teachers had given the film an R rating and that they would have to figure out whether or not to cut the film.
- The creators considered using "Flashdance - What a feeling" for the torture scene, but scrapped the idea as the editors was disgusted and refused to do any more editing, unless the song was removed.
