This movie was a surprise for me. I was expecting mediocre acting and quality movie was but this movie was the complete opposite. The story felt fresh even tho I'm sure this has been done a thousand times. I loved all the acting in this film. This is a awesome survival horror movie and a highly recommendable one at that!!

The filmmaker takes an intriguing idea and basically turns it into a fetishization of a sick man luring teenage women online, and turning them into blonde cheerleaders. Think of it as a cult, as they each are required to use the name Sadie and abide by a strict set of rules and customs.

There was a similar Lifetime TV movie named Kept Woman that I saw awhile back which was truly watchable and exciting. In that movie we saw how the perpetrator was able to put on a facade on everyone. Incorporating the outside perspective (such as seeing how Brad is able to keep these women hidden or seeing how Chelsea's family is dealing with her being gone) would have helped keep things fresh.

The pacing was my biggest problem here - I never felt a rush of thrills or any reason to keep watching. The first 20 minutes were make or break for me- I almost turned it off.

It had this creepy dollhouse-like atmosphere.

The story was pretty basic but passable.

Endless "I would have just done XYZ" situations, typical characters making nonsense decisions. I don't mind this so much in horror though because I almost feel like it's part of the fun of bad horror movies.

Overall I wouldn't really recommend it but it was ok as a one time watch. Your not missing anything if you don't see it though.

Let's just face it - it's simply not good. The thing that bothered me the most was the acting itself (which basically carries the movie, lol) from everyone. I did not believe a single person in there. Not the girls, not the villain, not anyone. I did not believe girl were actually scared. I did not believe villains performance (it looked like the guy HAD to make this movie, for cash purposes only, not because he actually believed in that character and wanted to express it).

I know this movie was supposed to show us how often, and on which ways, young girls are being kidnapped, through a teen horror movie. But it failed. It was actually a good story, but did not deliver what was supposed to. Maybe if it was a higher budget movie, and if they hired more experienced actors...it would be good. But... here we are.

On the plus side, I'll give them one thing - I've seen mother and father issues, but never sister issues from mans point of view. Like I said, it could of been great.

I don't recommend it, but if you want to kill and hour and a half... go for it.

Same stuff different actors. crazy guy kidnapping and killing women or teenagers because of some past trauma. Boring and predictable. good acting though.
