Sebastian; loner, photographer, filmmaker who is also the landlord for a very strange building; combination dark carnival of flesh & lust along with nice, normal apartments. Sarah Roeg; beautiful and innocent who quickly finds out she has a "taste" for the strange and bizarre after making friends with Sebastian, and is slowly lured into his sordid, sleazy world.

This film is best described as a raw, voyeuristic roller-coaster ride of extremely dark disturbing true horror. Definitely not for the squeamish or faint of heart. It is like a despicable immoral nightmare from which one cannot wake up. I have to admit, I could not watch this movie at night for fear of the images "leaking" into my subconscious and dreams.

What I absolutely LOVE however, are the extreme stark contrasts and imagery; the scenes are either deeply dark, or starkly white. Sebastian's apartment is almost glaringly white, antiseptic-like, which is a wonderful distinction of the two sides of him. One is innocence, while the other is far from it. In flashbacks, we see that Sebastian has been severely abused as a child, and he knows full well about pain, both physical and emotional.

This is a complete disconnect from everyday reality; exploring the most extreme seedy side of life complete with performance artists relishing in self-mutilation, extreme depraved sexual acts and even a bit of cannibalism. Not your typical gore/slasher-type movie by a long-shot, this is pure exploitation of the most twisted, deviant kind. Filmed with extraordinary finesse, the cinematography is haunting and beautiful! The music juxtaposes itself against the shocking visuals with combinations of an almost carnivalesque quality ending in an aria from the opera "Pagliacci", perfect for a tragic ending.

Well this film has stages of horror that start as strange to just horror,it has a few parts in the end you don't see coming,so for me i thought it was good,the main female character is really hot. This film is not for everyone do its content but if you like extreme cinema this will work for you,overall a really cool newer style horror,its worth the money i am kinda surprised this movie is not more well known.

I was looking for something a little different yet sexy. There is hardcore sex in this movie, for less than a minute. There is full frontal male & female bodies. There are also amputees behind glass waiting for you to use them. There are people actually suspended by hooks aka body suspension. There is murder, plenty of blood & cannibalism. Could've been zombies, but everyone was very much alive. Seedy, underground clubs & mutilation. This is not for the faint of heart, nor me.

House of Flesh Mannequins was so close to being rated XXX. As much as I may say I wasn't interested, I couldn't take my eyes off of it. It was fresh, provocative, and disturbing. The sex scenes, all artfully done, take you into the labyrinth of sin, a place very few would admit they had some curiousity about. Acting was phenomenal and creepy at the same time.

I did not pay much for it, so it is worth what I paid for, also I suggest to rent it first, if you like buy it.

This film won awards at film festivals and I can only see one reason for it to have won. The cinematography and acting job by the lead character. The film other than that was a bore for me. There was nothing that shocking or shocking at all in the film. But I will give credit to the filmmaker for his directing and the supberb acting, and thats about it. For fans of horror and bizarre cinema skip it.

"House of Flesh Mannequins' is a joint Italo-American production combining an Italian director and leading man with a U.S. based setting and actors in, one would imagine, an attempt to gain better distribution access to the N. American market. The result is intriquing, but a little clunky in its' execution. Intense fetishistic elements are displayed on screen within the context of a (purportedly 'based on a true story') plot that follows the 'romantic' connection that is made between an attractive young woman and a strange guy who lives in her apartment block. The story is, sort of, told from the perspective of the woman - as she gets sucked into the bizarre world of voyeuristic photography that her mysterious 'landlord'/neighbor is engrossed in.

There is a somewhat amateurish quality to parts of this film that detract from the 'suspension of disbelief' factor that cinema relies upon and the motivations and connections between characters is not handled all that smoothly - so that, on first viewing, it becomes a bit confusing as to: who is who and why they are doing what they're doing. This may be a result of the cross-cultural challenges faced by the Italian director, or his naivete in the industry. Regardless - the aspect of this film that has apparently attracted attention is the weirdness (and purported 'reality') of some of the bent fetish elements & the 'explicit' sex that are depicted. The film is divided into 'chapters' and the one entitled 'House of Flesh Mannequins' introduces us (via the photographer character) to a strange place where individuals are, rather inexplicably, housed in small viewing rooms where their peculiarities and sexual practices may be 'observed' by 'outsiders'.
