This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Amateur movie with Big budget

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

On this website, "Scorned" is listed under the tripartite heading of comedy-crime-horror. The best match is the horror genre. There is also a seemingly endless spate of crimes committed. But the comedy portion of the film is difficult to discern even at the darkest level of dark comedy.The film's title derives from the scorn felt by a woman named Sadie who learns that her boyfriend, Kevin, is sleeping with her best friend, Jennifer. Sadie improvises a ghoulish revenge scheme on both her boyfriend and her best friend. When Jennifer arrives at the home of Kevin and Sadie, she is invited to "follow the rose petals,' along with her little dog named Bootsie. Little does Jennifer realize what lies ahead along the road strewn with the petals.The actress playing Sadie creates a character worthy of her namesake, the infamous Marquis de Sade. But the main problem with the film was the excessive violence in Sadie's sadistic acts of torture. It was far too gruesome to extract teeth, place a hand in a vice, and use electric shock on the eyes of her victims. It is odd that the filmmakers would not rein in the long string of acts of revenge. After a while, this film became nauseating, due to the violence. The defining moment of "Scorn" occurs when an hardened criminal escapes from the local prison and is walking in the vicinity of the home of Sadie while she is torturing her victims. In the film credits, the convict is known only as "Scary Guy." While hitchhiking, the man is picked up by Sadie. At that moment, the viewer has great sympathy for one of the characters who is unaware of a portending doom. And the character for whom we feel sorry is the Scary Guy.

AnneLynne does a great job at playing the twisted psychologically deranged girl in whatever movie she appears in and this movie is no exception. One minute she's all the sweet and flirty southern girl stereotype the next minute she's a deranged killer, a woman scorned.There was nothing really bad I can say about this movie and the people who don't like it are probably male and don't like it because it has such a strong female lead. Notice how all the reviewers who are writing this off as a comedy are male. Women have feelings.As a horror movie fan I felt like Sadie was a character and found myself cheering for her at some points. The victims were just typical selfish middle class people. I didn't feel sorry for them at all. One scene that was probably way over the top was the puppy in the microwave scene. Like Sadie said herself it was hardly his fault all this had happened.

I've never seen AnnaLynne McCord in anything before, I watched this film because Billy Zane was in it and he was solid in Dead Calm and Titanic.The beginning put me off because of the unannounced text messages that were confusing for a second. The plot is tired and inconsistent, the scenes totally unbelievable and the content is clichéd and cheesy: scorned girlfriend tortures and kills her boyfriend for cheating on her with her best friend.However right from the moment she comes on screen AnnaLynne McCord rocks this movie all by herself. Viva Bianca is typical B movie stuff, Billy Zane is absolutely appalling barely even scraping B actor status in this, but McCord is A rated throughout, in every scene,despite having awful dialogue and poor direction in scenes.She makes this movie totally hers and outclasses everyone else, and the score on this review is really for her alone. I recommend this movie simply for those who enjoy great acting, but only for McCord.

A romantic weekend turns horrific and sadistic when Sadie (AnnaLynne McCord)discovers her boyfriend (Billy Zane) is having an affair with her best friend (Viva Bianca).If you are looking for a film about a kidnapper who tortures her victims for perceived wrongdoing, you will be better off with "Misery" (referenced here) or "Death and the Maiden". Despite a decent cast (I never tire of seeing Billy Zane), this plot is just not all that special and comes across as disposable -- despite a strange subplot / twist relating to a nearby prison...In fact, this film probably deserves a 3 out of 10, but I cannot bring myself to do that because of one thing: AnnaLynne McCord. I loved her in "Excision", and now she has returned better than before. Some people do a good job playing crazy, and some (Jack Nicholson) are born for it. McCord may be in this category. A terrible film, yes, but an Oscar-worthy performance. If she gets the right roles, we may not have seen the last of her yet...
