About time the crazy one was a girl

If you are looking for an all out torture movie, this is one movie I would recommend. Being a woman it was refreshing to finally see the crazy "guy" replaced by a girl.

The movie did not really have a storyline and there are no explanations for why this chick was crazy, but that was OK. The main character was a little too happy which added some character… and some laughs, to tell you she enjoyed her work would be an understatement.

The twists were a little confusing, but pretty neat overall. I really enjoyed this movie; it takes a lot for me now a days to cringe and this movie made me cringe a few times. I have to give credit for some very inventive torture scenes.
