User Reviews

Anti-male cliché run amok

This movie was so bad that I had to write my first review. The upstanding father as usual is a sadistic evil male that loves to abuse and rape women, especially his own wife and daughters.

The plot plays to the is not an any means believable and plays to people that just want to watch anti-male rhetoric. I mean the lady wants her son to die and burn in hell for a neanderthal killer cave women. I won't even go into the acting, or lack thereof, it really has some of the worse acting I have ever seen.

So if you are into no plot, bad acting and male bashing stereotypes then this movie is for you. Perhaps you just want to watch a movie where all males are sadistic rapist and the females are poor victims. Either way this garbage will work for you. Just remember to park your brains at the door so it can be filled with plenty of feminist vitriol and twisted propaganda.
