Jon H Decent film if a little underwhelming. Very basic plot, that’s more than a little predictable. But well acted, well shot and worth a watch. Couple of small gripes, there’s a scene towards the end which is clearly taken from Silence of the Lambs, you’ll know it when you see it. Also the soundtrack is awful, with the exception of Nights in White Satin. It’s a fairly straightforward film that’s neither going to amaze or massively disappoint. Watching it is fairly engaging, but it’s not a film that’s going to have you thinking for days after seeing it. It’s a basic premise that plays out without any huge twists or surprises. Pitching this film to the studio couldn’t have taken longer than two minutes. But hey, at least it stays grounded unlike certain similar themed films…. Cough cough…… The Black Phone. No ghosts teaching dance karate in this one. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/29/25 Full Review acsdoug D Disturbing. Very disturbing. It's hard to watch but I found it compelling nonetheless. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/16/25 Full Review Aaron C For me this film is a Horror, very disturbing.. I watched the Arrow Film Blu Ray, I turned it off on first viewing, even though you don't see what happens in some seems you know what is happening which made it more disturbing for me On second viewing I knew what to expect and liked the film very much, based/inspired by a true story of a Serial killer couple in the 80s this film is well shot, well acted... Very gritty. Probably my favourite Australian film. What makes the feel disturbing/scary is that it could happen to anyone on anyday. Stephen Curry did a very convincing performance. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/21/24 Full Review Jan S I cannot recommend this film. Although well shot and well acted, watching it did nothing more than deeply upset me. I think? it suggests that the complicit female is a victim, but her choices and conduct are ultimately worth imprisonment, not empathy. Spoiler alert: I stayed with it until the unsatisfying end in hopes that the actual victim would remedy my horror with revenge against her captors. Alas, no such luck. This is torture porn and I cannot understand why anyone would make this film. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/05/24 Full Review Huy Hoang N A well-crafted movie with an excellent performance from Emma Booth Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/03/23 Full Review Bessie B Not amazing, but it had the ending we all wanted (and the one we all saw coming). The ending scene was an emotional moment. My biggest gripe is that the movie wants you to feel bad for the female kidnapper, even though she is entirely complicit in the crimes and should never take care of children. Would have liked to see her go to prison or something. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
