I'm going to start this review by admitting that I'm about to give this film 7/10. I'm doing this now because I'm slightly ashamed to admit it.
Basically, this film 'Mum and Dad' is pretty sick. I'm not sure what sort of person enjoys watching something like it, but, apparently, I'm it.
A young cleaning girl at a British airport is lured home where she's held captive by 'Mum' and 'Dad' (obviously), plus their equally twisted offspring. If your mind is as twisted as mine, you can probably imagine some of the things that she witnesses and subsequently happens to her while she's shackled and chained. So, if you want to watch something like that then you should enjoy a film as brutal as this.
It's made on a shoestring of a budget, but it doesn't really need many special effects to get its point across. It's one of the rare cases where a film really doesn't need a budget to make it any good.
If you're in the mood for something sick, give it a go. Also, if you used to watch the happy-go-lucky BBC sit-com 'You Rang M'lud?' in the eighties, then you might remember the innocent and lovable 'Henry' from the show. Now watch him in Mum and Dad and you'll never be able to look at him the same way again.
