    Maybe with a better story and talent involved, this would have been good.

    The premise had promise (human capture and slavery in middle America) unfortunately the execution was off. Stilted characters that reeked of horror movie clichés and an overly long tedious opening that almost made me turn the movie off in boredom did not help the film (and continuity issues with blood covered ripped up shirts don't help either).

    Buckets of blood do not make a good movie, no matter how many teenagers tell you it does. Perhaps given better actors, editors, writer and director, this would have been a decent film, but in this case, it was poorly executed by the cast and crew that were in over their heads from the very start. And the goofy twists in the last fifteen minutes are simply that…goofy.

    And as a note to the writer: if you are going to make a point of the main protagonist saying that he can break a human in a mere three days...please follow through with it. Nothing happened to even remotely break anyone.

    Amazing...

    how someone can pull such a bunch of crap and believe there was "writing" involved. Take all the clichés avoided by even the most amateurish wannabe, cram them into a night-shot film with one of the most dreadful lighting for night I've ever witnessed, throw in some sloppy characters without soul or possible empathy-connections, spend a large sum of money in film, lighting and post, and you have -mileage may vary- this "film". I feel sorry for the poor actors that may have thought this was a opportunity to do a nice job.

    If you teach whatever you teach, you can use this thing to show your students haw not to do things in life.

    For the people saying this movie isn't out.....

    For the ignorant people in here saying this movie hasn't been released & questioning how they managed to watch it before they saw it at some "special screening in Washington" garbage..... This movie was a straight to DVD release & has been sitting on Blockbuster Video shelves since at least July, 2009, if not earlier.

    As for the movie itself - don't bother. It's a horrible rip-off of other movies in the same vein & not done nearly as well. As others have mentioned - plot holes big enough that you could drive a bus through, incoherent storyline, below par acting at best & overall terrible quality movie. This one is destined for the $2 bargain bin and even that would be over charging, to be honest.

    awful

    This was by far one of the worst attempts at psychological horror i have seen that actually tried to be serious. The sound and dialog was extremely sub-par, even for a lower budget film. No character development leave you not caring for any of the major characters, and the numerous plot holes leaves you guessing half the movie. Avoid at all costs. As for anyone that says to see it for the fun factor or anything like that, I would definitely look elsewhere, as the visual effects and gore are horrible and sometimes non-existent. The obvious seems to escape the characters at many times and make them seem extremely one dimensional and forced.

    College Kids vs. Human Traffickers: Wallows In The Grisly

    A group of lively college kids are on break, dancing and romancing and generally fooling around when they are hunted down by burly, menacing Edgar (Patrick Cox) who shoots them full of tranquilizers. The young people awake chained in horse stalls. These would-be yuppies realize that they are now the property of human trafficker Wayne (John Still). With his white hair and beard and roly poly big belly, Wayne appears a kind of perversely demonic Santa Claus. More concretely, he comes across as a psychopathic business executive when he announces to the young people in the stalls, "You are my property!" The ruthless capitalist aspect is underlined when he is depicted at his desk, filling out forms and keeping track of funds like any efficient executive. But he is as ruthless as they come as poor Josh (Scott Fletcher) soon discovers. Letting out a series of loud cries at being chained, he faces Wayne's wrath, which is, of course, expressed in torture and mutilation.

    The primary protagonists of the film are brother and sister Nick (Christian Walker) and Erin (Jeanette Comans). Nick is the youth with, as Wayne notes, "spirit," who desperately seeks a way out of enslavement, Erin is the sister of whom he is protective and who, in her turn, is protective of her friend Vicky (Scarlet Williams), the first to be toyed with by Edgar, and the first to be sold. Almost as striking as a torture or mutilation scene is the scene in which this pretty twenty-something female is locked inside a wooden box with the words "Live Animal" on it. We are told she is to be shipped overseas where she will be imprisoned in a brothel.

    Perhaps the most interesting character is Kathy (Stacy Still) who is not one of the college kids but whom they are surprised find already there in one of the stalls. She appears to have been kidnapped some prior but has not been sold and instead gone insane from the sheer boredom of her surroundings. She spends her days reciting children's nursery rhymes, repeating phrases she hears from other people, and talking ambiguously about a husband who might be about to rescue her.

    Directed by Jeremy Benson, with a screenplay he co-wrote with Mark Williams, "Live Animals" is a fast-paced, interestingly nasty piece of work. I enjoyed watching as these unfortunate young people sought so desperately to find a way out of their horrifying situation and fight against their heartless captors. Although others have faulted the acting, I found it satisfactory, particularly by John Still, Stacy Still, and and Christian Walker - the three performers who really count. A lot of blood is splattered around and the cinematography gives the whole thing an appropriately gritty and sleazy look to it. There is a startling twist toward the end. Does it make sense? Maybe. Maybe not. But it hardly matters because it ramps up the horror and fits perfectly in a film that wallows in the grisly.

      When they hear the car coming, Nick's fingers are bloody from trying to pick out the bolts from the wall. When we see him again his fingers are nice and clean.
