Abbie K Jan 25 I loved this movie! I’m a true crime fan and this movie captures the audiences attention and hooks you in with suspense. The actress who plays Lisa also plays Kara Robinson another similar movie to this (based on a true story) and she is a MARVELOUS actor! I really enjoyed the way the actual Lisa McVey talked about her experience at the end of the movie. It brings you back to life by reminding you this really happened to someone. All in all an amazing movie if you’re a true crime fan I would definitely recommend !! See more Carly s Dec 9 I thought it was sad no one believed her besides the one guy. See more Tiffany T 11/12/2024 Wow! Great story of survival; great actress!

See more Aldo S 03/22/2024 The suspense felt like the original Halloween 1 and 2 💯 See more Rachael L 01/08/2024 One of the best made movies, especially one that's based on true events,that I ever watched.
