    A sinister and gruesome tale based on a true story, well played by Malcolm McDowell. The film starts off with some pretty realistic, uncomfortable viewing which actually brings the reality into this story. It does seem to go on a while and some of the acting (with the exception...( read more) of McDowell) wasn?t all that good.

    Certainly worth a watch if you find this genre interesting, however it was a little drawn out.

    Amazing thriller, right from the very start. Gave me chills, and did even more so when I knew it was based on a true story (well, based on a book which was based on the true story?) Some parts were very disturbing and hard to watch, but that made it all the more intense. Malco...( read more)lm McDowell was incredible, indescribable even. I'm completely speechless at his performance, alike his others, as he is able to act out his roles so perfectly, that I have a hard time believing he is only acting and not the real person. I actually rewound the beginning scene a few times, where he is telling the story to the little girl, as I was completely taken aback at how intensely and emotionally he told the story. It also really set the tone for the rest of the movie. Some of the scenes were a bit ridiculous, and apart from McDowell, most of the acting was pretty horrible. Nonetheless, I highly recommend this movie.
