Excellent indie horror Right where to start ? First of this is an excellent compelling horror story. Very disturbing , very well acted , very well filmed. It really unnerved me due to the subject matter and I watch a lot of horror movies. You can see my other reviews.
Spoilers now ... The story centers around sex slavery. Although any sexual scenes are omitted you get a strong feel for the despair and desolate life the victims suffer chained to their beds. Harrowing.
The main girl manages to escape from the predator holding her slave in a house , but returns to the monster after finding pictures of other girls being held by him , she beats him senseless and he takes her to 4 more houses where she attempts to free others who have had the same fate as her , only it's not that simple !
The main girl is an excellent actress , I was compelled by the performance and gripped , the main monster man who holds these girls is disgusting and very disturbed , very sickening , I guess what made me really uneasy was the thought that perhaps somewhere in the world this is happening to someone. That's what makes this film special , it gives an insight into something awful. And makes you want to take action against such crime.
The film is really well shot , scenes are excellent , true craftsmanship.
I hope I've given others a reason to watch this. It's not an easy watch , yes it's compelling , but it's disturbing and not a teen frill horror flick. It's a more serious look at something which really makes you think after of the victims which perhaps suffer this fate.
To the film maker if you read these reviews also ? It was really good film , a real hard hitting film , can't really fault anything in it. Good cast ! And many films get let down by the bad guy , but in your film he was just awful. I really watched the film and put myself in her shoes and wanted to torture the guy.
I would love to know what happened at the end ? The door re opened and did she return to the house to murder the child in front of the mother ? Or did she return to tell them what he had done to her infront of his daughter and wife ? I guess that was left over to ponder over. I think she went in to torture him mentally in some way. To tell the wife what he was, I hope the daughter did not hear as she was so young.
Yes this is an excellent film. I'm tempted to give a ten or a nine. It was perfect as it crossed boundaries , it is however disturbing. And a very sad state of mankind that such things do occur.
First class film making.
