Abducted by two pedophiles at the age of 8, Leslie is led into a life of prostitution, drug addiction and self destruction. If you have children, and even if you don't, this is a hard watch. Gardens of the Night is a good film about some very, very bad stuff.
Truly an intense movie. At times it is difficult to watch, and yet it grabs & holds you. Makes you want to go grab & hug your kids & feel grateful they are not out on the streets alone & desolate.
This was an unbelievable movie! Very dark and really powerful but really well acted, filmed and dialogued.
tom arnold is priceless in this movie. this movie is not for the faint of heart, but not as gritty as youd expect.
This is a very touching movie. Parents will get chills in the first 5 minutes. This is a very realistic tale of the underground child abuse ring.
This movie was pretty intense. I think the writers got it right on with the kindve sickness is spreading throughout the world and what thease kindve things can do to a mind. Id go deeper but ill leave it at that. Good movie.
I probably would have gone with an "OK+" (3 Stars) if it had an ending with a resolution. I'm not fond of open ended movies.
The acting was fairly decent, but it is a hard story to watch, and brings up lots of tough things to think about.
I like how they show how this is usually a vicious cycle that occurs and that it usually doesn't just end.

This board looks lonely. Be the first to talk about "Gardens of the Night" !
