The trailer looks like something straight out of fictionmania.
However, not necessarily a story I would like very much personally.

Has anybody seen it or does anyone know how one might be able to go
about seeing it?

Hopefully this helps.

Hey... how about that? Seems pretty twisted. I bet it'll probably
take a better look at the situation than most fictionmania writers
who throw in acceptance and demand for cock within hours or days of
the transformation.
Despite the TG angle, I probably don't want to watch this any more
than I want to watch Human Centipede. That should get added to the
database I guess... under mythical or misc or fucked up or
something.

Speaking as a horror, film fan, rather than a TG fan, it looks
pretty sweet. Wasn't this based on a Spanish novel about a surgeon
getting revenge for the murder of his daughter though? Sure this
was mentioned before on this site.

Guyote, you're thinking of Almodóvar's La piel que habito (The Skin
I Inhabit) which seems to have a very similar plot.

That's the one. Thanks.
Not sure what audience they're hoping to target for this film. I
imagine most male horror fans will be squicked out by the
castration, and most female audiences will be squicked out by the
torture porn. The transgender community will just find it
offensive. Still, I'll probably go see it. Is it having a general
release?

The poster above is incorrect. The film is based on a novel
(stretching the term as it's more like an extended short story!)
called Tarantula by Thierry Jonquet.
I bought it from Amazon and found it a good read if more than a
little brief. Before anyone asks, there's no point providing any
excerts or trying to scan any bits because the 'TF' is very
integral to the whole story and is only referred to obliquely
throughout the story.
Basically though, from what I can see from the trailer its the same
story. Skilled plastic surgeon uses basement as a prison to keep a
young hood captive while he uses surgery and brutal physical and
psychological torture/domination to turn him into a young woman in
revenge.

Hehe, reading further, we're all right! :-P
Guyote asked if victim was based on (etc) and Kreplach said he was
thinking about 'The Skin I Inhabit'. It wasn't, it was Tarantula as
mentioned above, but apparently 'The Skin I inhabit' is a film
currently in post- production that's also based on Tarantula
(Mygale to use it's original Spanish title) by Thierry Jonquet.
Since '

sorry ...' Since 'The Skin I inhabit' has been on and off the table
for so long this release of a hastily produced 'Victim' does seem
as pointed out by one TGComics Forum poster an attempt to get in
quick by Hollywood. They do love their remakes....

was the transformation good. can anyone provide more details about
the surgery. Did he accept it? I saw a female back and heard a
female voice. did they use a female to do a double or was it a man
in drag? Any more spoiler info please.
Thanks

Almod�var announced way back in 2001 that he would write and direct
The Skin I Live In i.e. Mygal i.e. Tarantula. He didn't start
preproduction until early this year. Victim was based on a short
film Retribution, by the same writer/director Matt Eskandari. It
stands to reason that Eskandari heard about Tarantual, liked the
idea, made a short film to interest financiers, and then made
Victim. It's just a coincidence that Almodovar finally enter post
production of The Skin I Live In at the time they got distribution.
Either way, I can't wait to see both movies/interpretations.

I meant to mention that Retribution and Victim where shot around
2007 and didn't get released until now.
