This movie looks insane. Reminds me of one of those crazy Asian horror flicks, but done for America, and possibly done right. Check out the trailer.

Yeah, I've been pumped since I saw the trailer for it when I went to see Hostel.

From what I've gathered it's about a guy who meets girls online, only this one goes apeshit on him.

I am currently watching this right now and it is quite fucked up to say the least.

It was ok, not as good as I was hoping. The girl got so fucking annoying I wanted her to shut the fuck up and started rooting for the pedophile to kill her. Jesus Christ.

It could have been done a lot better, that's not to say it was bad, it wasn't, it was just missing something.

I agree with Boondock Saint. I was on the pedophile's side the whole time, so i was kinda let down at the ending.

I also agree with Boondock. By the end, I was hoping she was just wrong/crazy, and would get killed.

Looks interesting. Just requested it using the InterLibrary loan here at my school. It's like free dvd rentals, it's awesome.

I searched for a thread pertaining to this movie cause I just saw it on demand. I gotta say, this is one pretty fucked up movie to say the least. lol. Holy shit. I was freakin out during the surgery scene.

Also, seeing some of the reactions to the movie, I really think the director meant to blur the lines of who was good and who was evil in the movie. I think it was meant to make you decide whether the pedo actually deserved what was happening to him despite what he supposedly did or if Ellen Page's vigilante justice went a little too far. Great movie in my opinion, fucked up to say the least though. I really enjoyed the stylistic approach of it all.

I invite anyone who hasn't seen this to give it a watch.

7.5/10

<font color="#ff6600">I think part of it was to show that paedophiles aren't always creepy old men, they can be young, well off, clean cut good looking guys who you'd never ever suspect, like the guy in the film.

It's been a while since I saw it but I remember leaving the cinema and feeling the same way most people here felt, which was that I had little sympathy for the girl because she came across as an annoying psycho and I sort of felt bad that I was rooting for the evil child rapist and murderer.

But I don't think it was supposed to be a typical one side is good and the other side is bad film like Narcissus said.</font>
