    Viscerilly chilling,try not to close your eyes-a most excellent horror movie based on a true story. See it you'll never forget it!

    Some scenes seem to be a bit displaced like the hockey-star-cock talk and when someone comes in the welfare office with her arm cut off, get her to the freaking hospital. Not start to ask therapeutic questions.

    This Movie Was So Great, even though it was so tragic and the thought of a man doing things like this to woman was so bad, i thought it was so detailed that it really just gave me chills.
