Overview

A gruesome homage to the cult Amicus anthology Asylum, Cradle of Fear unfolds four screamplays all linked by the unspeakable need of an incarcerated child killer to wreak vengeance on those responsible for his imprisonment. Helped by deranged angel Dani Filth, who leaves a trail of charnel house death in his crimson wake, the cannibal convict forces two Goth vamps to endure a one night stand from hell, two tough female robbers to see through each other, an obscenely rich coke-head to chop up more than a few lines and an internet surfer to descend into madness when he uncovers the ultimate web depravity.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

An unrelenting parade of extreme, interconnected horror vignettes designed to provoke and transgress rather than frighten. This is confrontational cinema that luxuriates in depravity and suffering.
