TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
shelliiaae I usually LOVE "a young couple in the woods" movies...but this just misses the mark over and over! A man and his dying wife go to a cabin where she can live out the rest of her life. The wife one night is assaulted by a stranger, and the local Sheriff doesn't much believe him, nothing comes of it. (At this point maybe it's time to go home...) now the next day the man goes for a run, sees the same man raping a young girl, scares he man off and takes the girl home (maybe now go home..?) at this point the man calls a doctor up who upon inspecting the girl says only, "she'll be fine"...WOW! Yeah, she was just raped but she will sleep it off!!! Also he lets the sheriff know and the sheriff has the young girl stay with him and his wife! (Is this even legal?) now I won't spoil the rest but you can guess where this might all lead, young pretty girl, dying wife, and a very horny husband...yep. The couple adopts her and they go to Wally World! I wish, that'd have been a good movie.
kanidd I am not in the habit of writing reviews, but after seeing some of the others for this movie, I just had to. I don't know what other people were seeing that let them give it 9 stars or even 4, because it was so stupid I had to turn it off after about 25 minutes, and I have a fair amount of tolerance for stupid movies, at least to the point of watching the whole thing once. SO DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME! So here's why: Guy and his dying wife go up to a cabin in the middle of the woods. One night she's on the couch and sees a guy in the window, husband goes out to check, guy comes in the back door and starts groping the wife on the couch. The husband comes back in then just stands there saying get away from her, even though he has a weapon in his hand. Later, the sheriff comes, doesn't bother taking notes, says the description sounds like a neighbor who is a little odd. He sees the wife sitting quietly on the stairs but doesn't bother asking her any questions. Sheriff says he's short handed because two of his deputies are in the next county hunting for a serial rapist, and of course doesn't think the rapist might have moved and been the guy groping the wife. Next morning the wife is feeling better, so they might have sex for the first time in 10 months, but first she needs a shower. While she's doing that, the husband goes out jogging. Sure, I'm about to have sex, why not go get all sweaty first.... So while he's jogging, he comes across a woman being raped, chases the guy off, picks her up and takes her back to the cabin. Anyone else notice she was wearing a dress and heels in the middle of the woods? I don't think the rapist had a car. In the meantime, the wife has collapsed again, so the husband calls a doctor, who obviously is the wife's doctor and knows them, so came from whatever city they live in, which means he had to drive several hours to make this house call. I'm assuming that the rape victim is in a hospital somewhere by this point, but the next thing we see is the husband going outside, looking in through a window, and the girl is asleep on his couch. The next scene is him at a table eating with her. That is when I turned it off. What kind of retarded weirdo takes a woman who was just raped and lets her move in? What kind of idiotic doctor lets him do that? No need for police or hospital or worrying about evidence. What about the girl's family? What about any semblance of intelligence? I just spent more time writing this review than the movie is worth. Stay away. I read in other reviews that the sheriff asked the guy to take in the rape victim, but that hadn't happened yet when I stopped watching, so he was already letting her sleep there and feeding her. Anyway, that just makes it worse. Why is this backwoods sheriff so busy that he can't make time for a rape victim? He has a rapist running around, but wasn't she just raped? Wouldn't he want her in a secure location so he can collect evidence and interview her? Why on earth would he leave her in the care of some random civilian he doesn't know and who doesn't even live in the area? I also saw in one review something about a 'burning' question of whether it was okay to have sex with your comatose wife. Why is that a burning question? Sure, you could, and the wife wouldn't care or even notice, but it's a lot like necrophilia, isn't it? Is he trying to get her pregnant so he can have a child from her? Not that she'll live long enough in this case, but if it's just for sex, why doesn't he just masturbate in the bathroom? Basically, WTF??!?!?!?!? so stupid......made my brain hurt....
bouhanamarc well i loved watching this movie i understand why people can hate it 3 actors and one sheriff a house a crazy man who rape the girls on the woods and that s it but the most irritating is the man who is married with a ill wife who can nearly die is completely incoherent he can go with the young girl that he save from the rapist man and now she live with them in a big house on the woods but he love his wife and he miss everything he could do for his principle well for me this man is stupid and in the end he is completely alone the end of the movie is really strange so if you like good drama and 3 or four character in a movie you will like it a lot but if you want some action movie this is not for
morningsun66 When I first popped this is my DVD player I have to say I wasn't expecting all that much, but I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this story. Of course like any movie it has it's flaws but there was a point about a third of the way through when it got really good. The acting is also well done for an "indie" (especially the young girl and James Russo). And the cinematography is especially outstanding. Of course, the locations seem limited because it's an indie flick, but I found that to not take away from the story too much, especially since it's shot so beautifully and a lot of it out in nature in the beautiful woods. I give this movie a solid 7 out of 10.
