Title: I haven't seen such glee in over-the-top torture since The Passion of the Christ.
Product review: The only good thing about this movie is that *some* of the filmwork and a *few* of the ideas are interesting. Otherwise, this awful story turned my stomach with its wholly despicable lead character, largely predictable plot, and the glee with which the scenes of torture were portrayed. I suppose that on the other hand, films that are truly sickening are hard to come by, but that wasn't what I was hoping for when I rented it. I almost took it back to the store halfway through, and if I had, I wouldn't have missed much. The father/daughter reunion ending was idiotic and more along the lines of what you might see in some high-school-made B flick.
