Available on the second disc of Subconscious Cruelty. The comments on this short movie are extremely different, from one of the goriest films to the most boring one. and indeed, it's a special flick. It contains all kind of perverted things, from showing full frontal nudity from girl and man to golden shower to a child nailed to the wall. It's gory, it's indeed slow but I'm sure that some people will be offended by some scene's, especially those with the children. If you aren't into extreme films like Pig or Begotten then this isn't made for you. otherwise you will enjoy watching it. But you will have to find the Subconscious Cruelty DVD for a cheap price to watch it.

Titles that are written, produced and directed by the same person are commercially damned from the beginning. Although I wanted to give this film a zero, facts remain that the story is indeed well worth telling. However, production quality of this film robs the story of its possible impact. College films have done better in the FX department. Although Mitch Davis tries vehemently to convince you that he knows the inner workings of a criminal mind, he still doesn't reach it. Not that I have first hand knowledge, but research is valuable tool best tapped for such an endeavor. Mr. Davis seems bent on trying to become the next Tobe Hooper, Lucio Fulci, Dario Argento or even George Romero. When it comes to a subject of the mind more than one (mind) is needed to flesh out a believable story. This movie feels like a whining attempt of Mr. Davis attempting to convince his audience that HE truly knows what drives a man to this kind of self loathing. I am afraid that there are much more better examples (including the independent film makers) of criminal/audience alliances.

Director Mitch Davis has created a truly wonderful breakthrough in contemporary horror with "Divided Into Zero". The film is unlike anything I have ever seen. Although very graphic depictions are illuminated (especially in comparison to today's screen culture), the film does NOT leave you with a nausea. Rather, the film leaves you with a haunted, yet highly inspired state of mind, as the viewer is engulfed in a true work of art. The direction takes the viewer on a journey through avant-garde, art, horror and and the honesty of a one of a kind maverick filmmaker. This film is truly unlike any others in the genre. The cinematography is brilliantly conducted as is the sound design and performances. What I really loved about this film is the all out disregard for belonging to any psarticular genre. Fans of contemporary horror cinema will not be able to catagorize this film very easily and experimental filmmakers and enthusiasts will definately not be able to box the film up into a particular "movement" in today's art and film circles. Lets all hope that more great art-horror films that push cinema into the extreme and present an honesty of humanity, continue through the maverick kind that is Mitch Davis.

When a gore fan tries to make a movie ...This short movie is pointless. Horror in movies illustrate problems or issues in life using surreal images of violence and tension. Divided into zero only shows gore for gore. It's a very personal movie from director Mitch Davis who also works at the Montréal film festival FANTASIA. He probably tried to reunite all his favorite gore scenes from other movie. Being a cinephile before a filmmaker, the graphic part of the movie was probably is most important concern. He says about the movie that it was a tough part of his life. As far as we can understand from his movie, he needed to illustrate nothing but mostly explode with rage. If you want to see someone's twisted mind ... believe me, his is not interesting at all.
