"May" is actually one of my favourite American independent horror movies.It's wonderfully original and twisted film that will leave the viewer stunned.When May was a little girl,her mother made her wear an eye patch to cover her lazy eye.Unable to make friends,she had only a sad little doll.But with contact lenses to improve her appearance,May (wonderful Angela Bettis)earns the attention of her lesbian co-worker(Anna Faris)and the handsome man down the street(Jeremy Sisto from "Hideaway" and "Wrong Turn").May,however,proves to be too strange for even the oddest of her companions and once people get to know her they soon start to avoid her.Lonely and rejected May kills everyone who offended her.The character of May is truly bizarre.The acting is pretty good and there is plenty of gore,especially in the second half of the film.The climax is very haunting and memorable.Overall,I'd highly recommend this film for fans of horror.9 out of 10.

"May" is not a movie I would nominate for an Oscar, or any sort of award, but it is original. Many scenes totally creeped me out, but what can I say? It's a horror flick! And I commend the director for being unapologetic about this sick, demented material. The film is well-made and well-acted. Just don't expect the feel-good movie of the year. I can watch Jason Voorhies slice a victim's head off with a machete while eating a 3-course meal, but watching a room full of blind children crawl all over a floor and cut themselves with broken glass is pretty damn disgusting to me. Fans of the horror genre definitely won't be disappointed. (7 out of 10)

I cant say much about this movie other than its wonderfully strange. It has an appeal that is not only beautiful but scary and intelligent and never asks the viewer to understand whats going on fully it just guides you through the story with a slightly sick feeling in your stomach because deep down in some small way you know that you relate to the central character even if its just for a passing moment.This is not a run of the mill slasher type horror movie and explores the characters more than most in the genre especially the first relationship between may and the man with "perfect hands" i wouldn't rent the movie if your looking for a no brainer but if you want a horror with a little more substance and just the right amount of dark humour this is the one for you.
