Last Known Location

What a suspenseful treat. Any negative can pretty much be attributed to the budget they had to work with. There were lots of surprises that kept you wary as a viewer right up to the very end.... Just great movie making here. The director had very creative angles, making you feel like you were right there with them feeling the anxiety. Plus it wasn't needlessly filthy like so many producers seem to aim for....shock value which is such a cheap way of getting someone's viewing attention. None of that here. The guy playing the villain was also the director so double talent there. When watching really try not to interrupt your viewing as it will dilute the plot intensity.

Great Movie! Love the ending! Very suspenseful! The actors and actresses did a nice job. I really liked how it got us hooked in the very beginning. The ending had a neat twist. Not what I had expected at all. Very good storyline. I like how they tied all three of the characters together. The male detective was very funny. Will definitely recommend this movie to others. It had a combination of humor and suspense. It was very believable. The opening was very engaging. The music throughout the movie was well thought out. I like the idea of all of the flashbacks....especially when the therapist was a young girl.

It does keep you guessing right up until the end, because the end is a complete surprise you didn't see coming. There are some things that bothered me about the movie. The acting was a little forced at times, kind of like a bad TV movie. There wasn't enough depth to the characters, or the villain. And why didn't the three girls fight harder, I saw opportunities early on they could have exploited. Why did he do what he did? The Movie alludes to it but doesn't really say. The Hooks in the concrete basement floor the girls were chained to were obviously there for a long time. Had he been abducting women for a long time? Or was it something to do with the villain's mother?

Later in the movie Callie finds two little green toy soldiers that boys play with hidden in a crack next to her Chain hook in the concrete? Was the villain chained there as a kid, perhaps by his mother because he was "bad"? The upstairs of the house has an old feel to it...the furniture, the decorations. It almost looks like he's living in his mother's house, but you never see the mother. It did leave me with those questions, I felt like it could have been better with a little more back story and depth. But it wasn't all lacking, the plot and the girls kept me intrigued. Wanting to know more and see where it all ended up. And the end is a complete surprise, good one there!

From what I could find out this is a very young Indie film outfit with this being their first Major full length feature movie. Given all that, I'd say it was pretty good. In fact I'd say they would be ones to watch in the near future as they hone their craft and produce better and better movies.

So, yes, it's worth a watch.

What a nice, solid, gritty, low-key-thriller. I say "low-key" because the whole story just has this all encompassing ominous sense of dread throughout; it's like the filmmakers are saying "the world is a a nasty, bad stuff happens every day and this is just one of those stories." Nice production values and cinematography. One thing that really stood out for me was how well-developed the three female leads are, they could have easily been stereotypical one dimensional victims. Instead, the film does a impressive job of reminding the audience that these characters could be your sister or your girlfriend and this could happen to them.

In Philadelphia, the lesbian English tutor Callie Holloway (Aimee Theresa) is kidnapped while jogging, locked in the basement of a house and forced to have intercourses with the abductor. A couple of months later, the psychologist Danay Edwards (Sophia Lucia Parola) is also kidnapped by the same man and forced to the same conditions as Callie. Philadelphia PD Detectives Theresa Dellassandro (Jamie Kerezsi) and Marcus Bridgeman (Dax Richardson) are investigating the cases and trying to find anything in common. When the bartender Marly Collum (Jennifer M. Kay) is also kidnapped by the man while going home, her new boyfriend Keith Bradberry (Patrick Hickman) reports her disappearance to the police and is interviewed by Dellassandro and Bridgeman that believe he may be a suspect. But soon a parking ticket provides a clue to be followed by them. Meanwhile, the women are raped every day by the maniac.

"Last Known Location" (2024) is a surprisingly great thriller not available in Brazil. The screenplay is tense and anguishing, with the three women submitted to humiliating conditions and abuses. The plot point is not expected and shows how insane the brothers were. The conclusion with a happy ending is unusual, but refreshing, in this type of story. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): Not Available.
