The Divide is probably the most disturbing post-apocalyptic story I have ever come across. Directed by Xavier Gens, the story is written by Karl Mueller and Eron Sheean. Not everyone can stomach Gen’s movies. And well, sitting through the entire film without flinching is definitely an impossible task.

Characterization
This movie is violent. From rape to brutally beating people, you see everything. Also, time becomes blurred and as the audience, you cannot really tell how long it has been. We see throughout the movie that tiny difference cause big disruptions. The characters and the entire set was covered in dust, blood and muck. However, if you think this is a survivor story, you are wrong. This is about the darkness that resides inside all of us. But the most interesting part about the movie is that the actors were allowed to improvise. As we divide into the madness called The Divide, as an audience we become unnerved.
This catatonic horror will stay with you for a long time. Nevertheless, the most impressive bit here is the acting from Ventimiglia and Eklund. The wickedness and the darkness that progresses within them, they play it to perfection. If you cannot stomach violence, this is not for you. Otherwise, watch it because it gives you the good kind of bad that we don’t stumble upon often.
