Wtf did I just watch? Unsettling, intense thriller. The performances are excellent, especially the main character's descent into chaos.

As depressing as it is gripping. A slow burn with a wonderful payoff.

Overrated. Just literally porn and gore with no actual plot. No redeeming quality whatsoever. Absolutely garbage.
