Pig Pen

As dark, depressing, and real as Buddy Boy. Incredible! Must see for dark horror fans...MUST SEE!!!!

Horrible acting, stunted lines, confusing flashbacks.

Strange little movie this is. Begins like a rather depressing kind of social drama but it ends with a punch in the stomach due of some very nasty violence. It's about a kid roaming the (depressing) streets and his mom. Trouble begins when the mom, a drug addict but rather caring mom, takes a new man in the house, a plain right psychopath. The film has this cheap looking thing about it. But that only helps the dreadful atmosphere this film is bathing in. Acting is kind of wooden and some dialogue scenes are simply to long, but like I said the end is a punch in the stomach. Not for everybody but those who are searching for something original and daring: give this film a try.

This movie is one dark and depressing story about a young boy and his mother and her violent boyfriend and what happens to them all over the course of a few days.

A lot of the story is told in flashbacks; that illuminate the decisions that the boy and his mother make to try and survive in a cruel world.

The story is actually very well acted and well told; but anyone looking for an uplifting story better look elsewhere.

A solid 5 out of 10 for the quality of the story.

my vote is 6.5 good music and sound track, the other reviewer did a decent recapitulate of the movie.

As I was watching, I was angry with what happen or may happen to the boy and mom.

this is not an happy ending type of movie. very R for violence.
