Lio Tipton plays Markey Marlowe, sort of a Lindsay Lohand kind of actress who feels abandoned by friends, family and everyone, is spoiled rotten, and needs constant attention. Unfortunately for Markey, she has been put in house arrest for 30 days and also wears a tracking device on her ankle. If she can stay clean and sober for 30 days she will go on probation.
To make matters worse, her landlord who lives next door is monitoring her and he is obsessed with Markey. His name is Daryl (Tyler Labine) who has recently lost his grandmother. Daryl was the one who performed a mercy killing on her according to his story.
As weird as each character is, they form a bond and Marlene not only lets Daryl film her and interview her, but also Daryl carries out Marlene's bidding. Marlene wanted revenge on the boyfriend Nick (Joshua Davis) who raped her so she tells Daryl she wants his capped gold tooth with a diamond in it for a gift. No problem, Daryl races out and rips out Nicks tooth and makes a necklace present for Marlene.
Marlene wants revenge on her best actress friend and tells Daryl she wants her best friend Sydney (Natasha Loring) to have all her hair ripped out by hand. No problem, Daryl races out, drugs the drinks of Sydney at a bar, follows her home and captures her and pulls her hair out by hand. Natasha Loring sizzles in her few minutes of screen time.
Marlene then wants to punish her mother and younger sister so she orders Daryl to capture both of them and then cut up the face of her younger sister Jade (Addyson Bell) who is a rising actress to destroy Jade's career and force her mom Kara (Lauren Bowles) to watch her personal meal ticket get cut up.
Then to imitate Marilyn Monroe, she orders Daryl to kill her so she goes out in a blaze of glory. Things get weird here because before Marlene is killed she gets her personal assistant Annie (Monique Coleman) to come over to the house so Marlene can knock her out and give her a haircut. Movie leaves you hanging whether Annie is killed or not.
Then Daryl goes to strangling Marlene, but then the film fades and we see Marlene waking up as if the whole thing is a dream. It is the weirdness of the movie that gets you to watch and I did like how the director Dave Schwep chose not to be graphic but implied things. Example: the hair pulling scene shows some hair being pulled out of Sydney's head but only a couple of clumps and her screaming and then cuts to another scene.
The actors all did a fine job, but the script is what kills the movie. It is not believable or even plausible so it is not realistic at all and hence the low rating.
