Only for the Strong Horror Fan

This is one of the most shocking films I've seen in a long time. However, the shock value isn't based on scenes of grotesquery, but rather the decisions and actions of the characters. Though, it does have it's share of grotesque acts, they aren't there for the sake of just being gory. The film has a slow and quiet build of tension that compliments the story and raises the emotional impact of the violent moments. Underneath the horror is a family drama about domestic abuse that is heard without having to cater to the audience. This movie is NOT for everyone. But for the horror fan who is tired of the same low-budget genre crap, this is definitely worth seeing.
