Ratings and reviews

When I first saw the trailer for this film I though "Nah it can't be as brutal as people say" but geez does this movie put it out there. It's just a brutal film. It is really good though, one of my favorite horror films even. The ending will forever stay with me too, I mean holy Christ you just feel for the poor couple who get stuck in this whole situation. You are rooting for the girl to make it through the whole film....I enjoyed it.

No part 2 continuation...A Big Waste And Letdown. I for one thought at least there will be some "justice" for the lady, when she made and used "the knife"...but that was short lived. Wished the director used that angle to show she changed and couldn't be stopped. At least that gives the audience some hope and the character some justice. This movie ending the way it did, is like eating some really bad, and getting sick from it. Hate when that happens.

I love how disturbing this movie is and how it made me feel sick to my stomach. I am a fan of movies that actually cause a physical reaction whether it be laughter, crying or in this case - nausea and anxiety. To me, some of the most horrifying situations would involve people or things without a conscience and in my opinion, this film depicts a perfectly horrifying situation.
