Remember the days before streaming services were a thing? Yep, basically that: as in people would burrow a rented copy from a friend who paid money to obtain a official copy on DVD from blockbuster then ripping the contents into those blank DVDs (the white ones) meaning they've pirated a copy for home use but it's still a "torrent". I remember watching a ripped copy of Finding Nemo (or other kids movies from that era) when I was younger.

The same with "lending" a purchased copy from a store a friend has proceeding to rip the DVD content onto a blank DVD having a copy. Then there are CAM's (pirates using a video camera to record the film upon being shown in theaters) usually they do this around the debut (new releases in cinema) by sneaking a camcorder but the footage is shit (I remember back in 2010, I've seen Alice in Wonderland via CAM and it sucked due to bad resolution and audio).

It's a bit of a try hard meme film tbh, you're not missing anything.

Idk man, it definitely made me sick to my stomach multiple times, I heard it was bad before but no one told me the details on why and definitely disturbed me, I think I was in my late teens early twenties when I saw it.

I could see that. I'd been thoroughly prepped on the movie and went in with a pretty cynical, "this was made to 'shock' people and is all fake" mindset which definitely colored my interpretation of it.
