"While filmmakers and audiences tend to gag at the thought of ‘the other C-word’ onscreen, writer/director Julia Ducournau and her fearless leading lady Garance Marillier launch themselves teeth first into their bloody and occasionally brilliant cannibal horror pic..."

Sex, drugs and rock & roll. What more could you possibly ask for in your "Fucked-Up-Coming-Of-Age" movies... Cannibalism? No dramas. _Raw_ has got you sorted.

_Final rating:★★★½ - I really liked it. Would strongly recommend you give it your time._...

But the film succeeded if that's what it's in...

“Justine” (Garance Marillier) is a fairly robust young vegetarian who has just started attending veterinary school when she is hazed into eating some raw rabbit liver by her popular elder sister “Alex” (Ella Rumpf) and then unsurprisingly feels sick!

She develops a nasty looking rash for which she gets some ointment but the ra...
