    There is no doubt in my mind that even the weakest teenage female, both mentally and physically, could have escaped such an unbalanced and inept captor within days. Her escape attempts were laughable and unrealistic.
  • Rating: 0.5 out of 5 stars
    Extremely disappointing. There must have been very few reviews when me and my brother saw the meter at 100%. It was slow and the "twist" wasn't all that great.

    Captive, formerly titled Katherine's Lullaby, is a slow-burn horror/thriller from skilled writer/director Savvas Christou. Teenage runaway Lily (Tori Kostic), fleeing her abusive father, gets kidnapped and held against her will by a delusional older man (William Kircher) convinced she's actually his daughter. In order to survive, Lily must play pretend for as long as it takes. A limited cast and setting keeps the action small-scale, working to the benefit of the unnerving and intimate narrative.
