A Young Man with High Potential

Wow, where did this little nasty come from?

Sometimes it truly pays off cruising the web for little seen/alternative titles and this beauty came through in spades. Mashing genre trops such as horror, drama, thriller and tar-black comedy to near perfection, this impressive feature manages to be a stand out as both sad, horrifying and moving with utmost competance. I simply can't recommend this indie enough (if you have the stomach for it, that is)

Hope you enjoy it.

Pt me interested the whole time and the main characters transition throughout was chilling and very real.

I find this quite a difficult film to review as it is well produced and well acted but just leaves me cold. Yes I understand it is a study on how a sexual situation can spiral out of control and the title is a reference to what most lawyers would say in court when a rape case is presented as has been the situation recently in America with the preppy college attacks but the overtly gory and perverse nature of the film does not really make this a good film for me just more of the usual torture porn and degradation of women which is all too prevalent these days!

It also I illustrates the way a lot of young men are retreating into their homes in front of a computer and living a virtual sex lifestyle; so yes it does have a few things to say but I cannot in all honesty give it much above a 3/10 as it left me cold and was quite uncomfortable to watch at many points but I guess the intelligentsia will say this is a good thing and why the movie is so good. Not me, I do not buy into all style over content descriptions that this movie has garnered.

If you want to be thoroughly depressed and disgusted then yes by all means watch this film but do not expect to come out with any good feelings. In this day and age it is already depressing enough, I want to come out of the cinema with hope for the future and elevated at having watched something either entertaining, profound or interesting and this is really none of those!

A very disturbing story. I saw this on horrify, but wouldn't really list it as horror though a part of the film is very gore like. Very well acted and directed. Certainly worth a view.

Neglect what the storyline and viewing the production of the movie is quite good. Try not to view it as a big production but view from a angle of dark side of a teenage. It's quite horror indeed.
