La ragazza nella scatola

I've followed and read this story and the movie captured it really well. Amazing acting and just an all round sickening story. I love true crime and thus is one of those stories that sticks with you. How she overcame this is beyond me and the Stockholm syndrome is real! Brain washing and absolute turmoil but a must see. My husband felt sick watching it and the disregard for human life. I love lifetime movies but this didn't even feel like one, it was extremely well filmed and captured the essence of the horrific story perfectly. Moral of the story please don't hitch hike!!! I have before in my 20's...never again.

I actually thoroughly enjoyed this movie. For a lifetime movie I was hooked. Unbelievable what two human beings can do to somebody and how sick and demented the human mind can be. I'm so glad she was able to escape and tell her her story. The guy who plays Cam was a great actor. For a lifetime movie the acting was solid. I hated him the whole movie, but that's exactly what his job was as an actor to make us hate him.

I would recommend this movie to a true crime lover, like myself. I came into watching this movie with no knowledge of the real case. If you have about an hour and 20 minutes to spare, I would suggest anyone who hasn't seen this movie to give it a go.

True story of Colleen Stan, age 20 who convinces her parents she'll be okay hitchhiking from Eugene, Oregon to northern California to surprise a friend on their 21st birthday. She hitches a ride with Cameron and Janice Hooker, only to be kidnapped by them and spends the next seven years of her life as their sex slave. As Janice tells her, "You're only here to take the pain."

This is a film reminds all of us, people are rarely what they seem and how the human mind, body, and spirit can survive in horrific conditions. The film contains violence (bondage) and very adult situations, but a must see if you or anyone you know still think hitching a ride is just as safe as any other type of transportation.

A shocking movie that shows the true store of a girl who was hitchhiking and was kidnapped by an unsuspected couple by several years. The girl was living in a box most of the time, humiliated all time and treated as a slave.

Really enjoyed this biography not so much for the story but for the realism created by the actors and the director. I'm truly amazed. This LMN movie has really blown my mind all around.
