English teacher Mr Gale snaps and take revenge on the wayward yobs that torment him in class. This starts off as a reasonably interesting coming of age drama before suddenly plunging into torture porn. Sadly this is where it all goes downhill for the next hour or so. Yes, there is some gore, but it's certainly no Hostel. The problem is that the film tries to be smart, having the psychotic Mr Gale question his victims on the English dictionary & literature, and what it all means. This just seems to go on for ever & the temptation to hit the FFWD button was great! Could've have been better, certainly has a running time that is way too long. Apparently this British film had a budget of £5,700.000 but looks like one with a couple of noughts less. Disappointing & boring.
