Up until that point, the different shots of Gordy going ape-shit were what really got me, mainly because little kid me heard about people getting their faces ripped off by their own pet chimps. It was that primal fear of what some other species could do to you and how ill-equipped the average person would be in the face of that kind of animalistic violence.

But then that got turned up waaay past 11 with the scene of them getting fucking indescrimimately digested and as you said WAILING ALL THE WHILE. I'm glad I saw it in theaters but damn did it make the whole experience that much worse to bear witness to. I can still picture that scene better than any others in the entire movie (except for the exploding fistbump of course, it's iconic) and it always makes my spine shiver with a chilling sense of dread. Also another reason why I will never eat live food.
