Has metamorphose seen the movie "Victim" starring Stephen Weigand?
It's about a man who is kidnapped and forcibly slowly transformed
and brainwashed into a woman by a mad scientist.
What did you think? I saw it the other day on the Chiller channel.

It was on Netflix not long ago. May still be on there. I personally
didn't like it because to me the guy basically became a fake female
in drag and makeup. However, the remake or other version of it "the
skin I live in" with Antonio bandaras was much better. The guy
turned girl was played by a female actress and the surgeon used
more sophisticated methods to feminize the guy which is why it was
more believable when his female version came on screen

I thought it was an interesting film with some good performances
but ultimately a let down. My biggest problem came from a story
perspective. The surgeon wanted to get revenge but he essentially
brainwashed his victim to always believe he was a woman and his
daughter. I felt like his loss of identity undermined the point of
the revenge. Of course It's hard not to compare it to TheSkin I
Live In or the book that it's based on. In the end It was all about
a shock concept and torture and less about character and story, but
then you could say the same about a lot of decent horror films. I'd
give it a C+

Done. Apologies accepted. :-)
Also, please see the Metamorphose.org entry for this movie, and the
related thread(s) (linked in entry's page) for more information.

I saw Victim which was temporarily for free somewhere a couple of
years ago. I love Almodovar but haven't seen his version yet. I
know his ending, though, and would think it is actually less
realistic (because that's kinda' what he goes for) but more
interesting to people fantasizing TG. Victim was more believable because
they used more convincingly standard GRS technology and because in
good fashion w/ proto-torture-porn type films of yesteryear (way
before 2010) the characters are disturbingly but almost believably
twisted. The final conflict resolution was interesting but took
forever to get there and the final resolution at the very very end
(last minute) was a little unsatisfying. It was actually the least
convincing part. I wasn't sure if they were trying to show us one
last twist or just being lazy.
In a way, it reminded me of "I Spit on Your Grave II"
(psychologically, only;there was no TG element in it), in that
you're kind of waiting to see how the protagonist will deal with it
all if they survive but I found Victim's resolution less
convincing.
