The DVD says:

Daring, original and utterly genre-busting, DEAD GIRL is a terrifying journey to the dark heart of the American high school generation. Fantastical, frenzied and darkly hilarious, this is a horror movie, a high school comedy and a coming-of-age movie all turned on their sick and twisted heads. When teenage misfits Rickie and JT cut school one day, they find themselves in the derelict remains of an abandoned hospital. The gruesome, unnerving discovery they make in the bowels of the facility will test the very limits of their sanity: a woman, naked, chained and covered in plastic. She’s abandoned, she’s beautiful, she’s dead...or is she? What follows is a warped odyssey that forces this pair of outcasts, their high-school tormentors and adolescent crushes to all decide just how far they're willing to stretch their understanding of what is right and what is very, very wrong.

My Opinion:

This film tries to break through some horror film boundaries, but does it really cover any new ground? Well, individually, these boundaries have been pushed in other films, but this one covers multiple edgy topics - rape, necrophilia, cock biting to list the main ones! It's an interesting story which kept me waiting for a big finale, but I was a little disappointed by the ending. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a bad ending, but I was just expecting more. The effects are of a decent quality and overall the filmmaking is good, there just seemed to be something missing that left me feeling slightly robbed at the credits. The DVD has a couple of extra features and a fairly commentary. Overall it's a good release and surely worth a watch.
