Daddy's Girl

Story is so sick with father f her girl and random pick up girls and torture them for enjoyment. If you like sickness theme, this is your choice.

Its a non alcoholic beer, a meat free burger, a sports car with speed limited speed, a diet cola, basically a gore horror with no gore or horror. Imagine freddy krueger with no glove, Jason with no machete , leatherface without his chainsaw. A guy sleeps with his daughter, picks up girls in bars takes them back to a torture den and there is no torture to be seen. An hour and 20 of bars and threats and incest and screaming. It could've been a very good film if it had special effects. But was just nothing.

Whatever you think of this - thriller/torture porn/craziness - one thing is clear: Costas Mandylor had the time of his life shooting this. The man you may know from the Saw franchise plays a wicked character in this one, where family is more than important.

It is a tough watch and I have to admit, while it is brutal and has some cringe worthy scenes in it (yes I always remembered this is only a movie, still you can't completely detach can you?), I was happy it was edited in a way, that gave you some time to breache. The actors overall are really good in it and the original way they were going to end the movie probably would have elevated the whole thing, but we didn't get that. Instead we get something more predictable, which is also fine overall (for the other ending watch the vlog on the disc, won't spoil it here for you)

This should properly be called "Step Daddy's Girl", which isn't quite as disgusting as the incest implied here initially. Sadly, everything else is disgusting. The villain of the piece is a serial killer who served in Iraq. It wasn't his wartime experience that turned him into what he is, rather he appears to have joined the military for the express purpose of killing and torturing, not necesssarily in that order.

Now he is located in rural America living with his stepdaughter, her mother having committed suicide some years before. Although he isn't particularly attractive, he finds it remarkably easy with a little help from his companion to pick up reasonably attractive young women, take them home, and torture them. There is no suggestion even of rape, just pure sadism and bloodlust.

Fortunately, he is soon recognised by a local lawman who also served in Iraq, although he looks far too young to have done so. There is a resolution and a somewhat unusual final scene, but apart from that, this modern day film noir in colour has no merit at all.

My first and foremost issue with this torture porn would be it's similarity to those 70's and 80's Italian/Spanish movies which gave you a bevy of beautiful women and the worlds ugliest leading men.

Now I could go with the daughter as the pick up for the victims, but John was no Casanova and hardly carry the appeal that would attract even a goth younger woman. So I didn't buy the BS with the second victim being picked up by John period, much less in the time it took Zoe to order a drink.

I understand that these weak and pathetic writers will use attractive young women to fill theater seats, but come on now and start using average looking babes that this slug might be able to pull, and stop with the BS.

Besides the cheesy dialog, and so so acting the only plus side that I got from this, would be the cinematography, which was for the most part clear and crisp. Oh. And Pleeeeaaassseee what was up with the cop whispering his lines like he was trying to seduce everyone that he spoke to??

Not something that I would recommend, nor rewatch.
