The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

A group of friends on holiday in Lithuania end up in trouble, as two of their party venture to a backstreet tattoo parlour, with a stranger, after a night of partying. This film is a missed opportunity. The lead actor is superb and the cinematography is also very good. The acting of the rest of the cast however is pretty awful. The constant screaming and babbling of the girls is beyond grating. The story is not developed particularly well, and as the tattooist starts to torture his victims all we have is screaming, begging, moaning and sobbing of the irritating fashion known to man. Other than the tattooist himself the characters are not likable, their relationships and personalities are not developed. They are all just completely annoying.

"The Yakuza got it all wrong. Skinning a dead man's body only wounds the canvas. Elasticity is gone."Now and then I like to watch a horror movie from the sub-genre "torture-porn". I've read somewhere, before I saw this movie, this description : "a gory, gruesome black comedy horror flick". Well to be honest it was quite a huge disappointment. Indeed it's a "torture-porn", except that the torture part looks really soft (or you're someone who only saw "The little house on the prairie" all his life of course). In addition, there's quite some female nudity shown throughout the movie, as if they wanted it to be a soft-porn. As far as the tortures is concerned, it could be more extravagant for me. As for the female nudity (which incidentally contributed absolutely nothing to the story), this could be less explicit (Not that I'm a prude or anything, but when I watch a horror movie, I don't want them to serve me a half-baked porn).Amy (Tiffany DeMarco), Jesse (Jordan James Smith), Kelly (Claire Garvey), Kevin (Anthony Del Negro), Brock (Ben Whalen) and Stephanie (Beth Humphreys) are 6 friends who are on a summer vacation in Europe and they decide to make a stop in Lithuania. Their main activities during their stay in this country include partying all night long, consuming liters of alcoholic beverages and an attempt to work themselves through the entire Kama Sutra. Brock, a chunk of energy when it comes to drinking and seducing girls, bumps into the eccentric, wild and fully tattooed vamp Uta (Sara Fabel) who invites him to a private party in a tattoo shop called "The Parlor" where she works as an apprentice with a person who's just called "Artist", an expert in the field of tattoos. Brock likes this idea and Amy accompanies him with the intention to get a tattoo as a souvenir. However, they soon realize that the "Artist" preserves a centuries old tradition. It's a procedure that involves more than just tattooing a butterfly.First of all, I do want to make a remark about something that really gets on my nerves in movies. If you really want to show scenes that are filmed in a dance hall or disco, is it so hard to put together a crowd with people who are able to dance to the rhythm of the music? I fully understand that not everyone has the talent of a Fred Astaire, but a whole dance floor filled with "out of rhythm" dancing stiff youngsters, is a bit too much. If you start paying attention to it, it's quite disruptive. Next time call for a bus full of teenagers who hang around in a local dancing all the time and this scene will be more credible and realistic. That alone was already a bad sign about the level of this film. Another bad sign is the phenomenon female nude (or it might be necessary and functional for the film). I remember "The Sacred". A terribly bad horror where soft erotic scenes were used. In my opinion this is a smart way to camouflage the pitiful story. And in "Anarchy Parlor" the ladies were well equipped to cover the minuses. Google for images of Beth Humphreys and you see what I mean. The career this lady has in mind is obvious (And her butt is also a treat to look at). Joey Fisher is also such a lusty lady who has more space for flower pots on her balcony, then I have here at home. Had the "Artist" used her as material, than he easily could reproduce "The Night Watch" by Rembrandt.Is there something positive to say about this movie ? Of course. The charismatic and demonic-looking Robert "Death Race" LaSardo was a hit. Obviously his physical appearance is perfect for this movie, which connects the art of tattooing with bloody ancient traditions. The man himself is a walking tapestry. But above all it's his engaging and captivating personality on the one hand and the indifferent attitude that makes him extremely creepy. The conversation between him and Amy is without a doubt the best part of the whole movie. And then there's the like-minded Sara Fabel, a well known Finnish tattoo artist, who plays an energetic role and makes a ravishing appearance with those long blonde manes and a sensual body covered with winding tattoos. Only the acting isn't her greatest asset. It all seems so exaggerated and forced. And Tiffany DeMarco wasn't bad at all, except that she's repeating herself all the time and uses the "You're sick / Let us go / F*ck you" quotes over and over again. The rest was negligible victim material. A group of pampered and terribly annoying teenagers with an intellect of a very low level.Are you a hardcore fan of this genre ? Then this is a must see for you. But the "Artist" summarized it already when he expressed his dissatisfaction about the art of tattooing in a philosophical mood. Once a tattoo was a statement and a way to live outside the structures of a conventional society, while now it's just a fashion trend. The ultimate message and thoughts behind the phenomenon of tattooing, diluted over the years. Ultimately you can connect this reverie to movies like "Anarchy Parlor." The first torture-porn like "Hostel" and "Saw" were imitated by a series of failed attempts that profit from the success of previous successful films. Metaphorically, you can say that "Anarchy Parlor" solely is a butterfly among the "torture-porn" movies. Such a pity !More reviews here : http://bit.ly/1KIdQMT

Alright, I have to chime in here, seen this film 3 times and every time I find out something new about the story. Not sure if that's just myself feeling smart or if it was the filmmakers intent. Never the less this was probably my favorite horror film in the last 5 years. This one came out of left field in the sea of slow-burn crap that has been poising the horror waters as of late. The film was super fast, exciting and gory but had substance as the Artist played by Robert Lasardo really delivered. This dude is super creepy but yet endearing, call me messed up but I found myself cheering for him to succeed in his quest! The Artist had this calmness about him that makes you uncomfortable, and I mean that in a good way, I was effected by his performance. No spoilers from me do to IMDb's stupid policy. Anyways big fan of this film, super hot chicks, all of them! I was in awe of Joey Fisher, holy crap she is hot! PLEASE do a sequel and put her in it! It's rare to see such natural busty beauty in the Ent biz today, and to top it off she can act! Anyways to wrap this up, the film was a smart, gory fun ride from begging to end. If you want something fresh, crazy and against the norm, check it out. Highly recommended!

The genesis is this: a group of kids are on vacation in Lithuania and all hell breaks loose. The difference between this movie and films like Hostel is that it doesn't take itself too seriously. Instead of following typical storytelling conventions that try to get you to care about the kids on vacation, Anarchy Parlor invests its time in the bad guys. Here, he's not just a one dimensional psychopath, he's a fully fleshed out character, hero and anti-hero. And his apprentice, a woman by the way is the psychopath. The kids do in fact make a series of horrible decisions. So horrible, that its clearly a wink and a nod at the audience, like hey, we know what you came to see and we're gonna give it to you! The production value is amazing. The gore is so realistic, I had to watch with volume down. The torture scenes, plus the eerie Tattoo Owner and his apprentice are worth the price of admission. It does a nice job of balancing the intensity (check the chase sequence) with levity and some pretty raunchy sex scenes for all you fan boys out there. It also wastes zero time getting to the gore...no long set ups, no lengthy dialogue, you're in it right away. It reminds me of what horror movies used to be, fun, silly and scary. I'd much rather hear these kids curse up a storm before they get sliced and diced than be bored to death with some convoluted mythology that takes so long to explain, I stop caring at all. It also has a great twist at the end that elevates it from just your typical horror flick to a damn how did I miss that?! Head Scratcher. Anarchy Parlor is just straight up fun to watch!
