Victim

It is a low budget, badly acted, poorly executed movie. The plot is good copied somewhat from a french novel , which in 2011 adapted by Great spanish director Pedro Almodovar. Watch The Skin I live in if you have not seen. If you have already seen it, then don't watch it because there is nothing new here.

I had to make myself a drink after watching this film. I'd like to start by admitting that I'm a male. Also that I believe women should have rights over their lives and bodies without question.

The film will leave you a little shaky as was intended. The storyline is well thought out with many unexpected twists and turns. Hultquist and Matinez did a damn good job. Direction was fine, given an obvious limited budget the film seemed a tad scaled back. But no complaints. The less Eskandari showed the more freaked out I became.

Harrowing to watch. Especially if you see everyones point of view, motive and that of any victim of crime.

Actors Weigand and Bancroft turned in above-average performances. Weigand's character arc is particularly well done by the young actor.

Think I'll make myself another drink.

This movie was subpar. It started off with a seemingly (at least possibly) interesting plot and ended up with a dull dud. I won't spoil it for anyone who wants to see it (honestly, don't waste your time), but the ending of the movie wrecked any climax it was trying to build. There is no satisfaction in the way the plot line plays out or even in the cinematic effect the film is trying to create. The movie was pseudo-engaging until the climax (aka - last 10 minutes) which was, frankly, trite and made me want to punch myself in the face for watching. The "shock" ending was predictable. I absolutely don't enjoy films like "Hostel" as I think they're a waste of time and brain energy, and this falls in that category - although much less gory. If you want something that engages your brain, look elsewhere.

This is an excellent black comedy horror-thriller movie.

The three main male leads give outstanding performances and it is impossible to chose the best.

Some creepy stuff here for sure!

A young man is kidnapped and held hostage by a couple of weirdo's and he is then subjected to all sorts of horrors and transformations.

Best not to say too much as that could spoil the enjoyment of the show. I hope we get a sequel!

Well done to the Sundance Channel for showing this film.

Highly recommended, but this picture is for adults only!

8/10

Horrible plot, badly made, poor acting. How can this get a 5.9*?! Totally misleading.
