  • Whether you loved it or hate it, you have to give it credit because it draws light to a real problem, that of human trafficking which happens every day around the world and can be just as bad as this movie.

  • Not for the faint of heart. If you like some pretty twisted stuff, you'll enjoy this film as much as I did.

  • I completely understand why this would not be to everyone's taste but if you're looking for a film which leaves a lasting impression then this ticks the box. It us deeply disturbing and very violent in places and hard to watch.

  • Brutal yet emotional, there is a layer of importance around this movie.

  • 9/10 - I always knew I was a special flower, but... the hate for this brilliant movie? It's bleak. It's dark. It's depressing. It also hits all the right beats and has an amazing performance from Rosie Day, who owns the whole movie, without saying a word. My only negative from this, was the ending. It's not an easy watch, and if you're squeamish, you might want to eat BEFORE you see it, cause when it gets violent, it gets good and gory, but I highly, highly recommend this flick. Ignore the idiots at Rotten Tomatoes and their 21%, and listen to this idiot and his 9/10.Check'r

  • I watched this by mistake.. It was in the horror section on Netflix for some reason, when it shouldn't be. However it was actually a pretty good movie. If I knew what it was about before, I probably wouldn't have watched it, but I really enjoyed this film. Had me on the edge of my seat most times, and the ending lil twist was good. It is very dark and pretty graphic when it comes to some scenes, but if you can go through that then deffs give this a watch

Thankfully not too much graphic rape, this is more of a revenge thriller. Claustrophobic, taught cinematography; Great acting, Knightmarish scenario. Bloody good thriller.Not for the fainthearted.

  • I will start off my review by saying that I have seen some of the most disturbing films ever created those of which being "The Human Centipede", "Martyrs", "A Serbian Film" twice, "I Spit on Your Grave" and "Hostel" along with many others so I'm very calloused when it comes to not flinching when watching Graphic Content but this movie hit my core like a punch from Saitama. I will now start with the story which is about a girl named Angel who is a deaf mute who is forced to work in a prostitution house in the Balkans of the late 1990's. The story progresses when she meets the soldiers that killed her family at the house and fyi that isn't a spoiler that is in the base synopsis of the movie. I will now head to the acting department which was cast Superbly seeing as I didn't know anybody outside of "Sean Pertwee" whom I love as an actor. The main protagonist Angel who is played by "Rosie Day" was Absolutely Amazing in her role and everyone else did a tremendously great job. I will move onto the action which is hard to define so I will combine but action with psychological aspects. I mean the action scenes are among some of the most grueling and painful to watch scenes I have seen for an extremely long time and very bloody. I will now go into the psychological aspects of this movie. I mean I had a hard time watching this film and as I mentioned prior I have seen a ton of stuff. I mean the subject matter and what it portrays on the screen is harsh,grim,cruel,heartless and incessant the whole time. I literally had to force myself to watch it until the end. I wanted to go through the screen and kill these sick individuals myself. The location was shot very well in a disused Air Force Base doubling as a brothel house so it mainly stuck to the one house the entire movie. I will close by saying this is Paul Hyett's second movie I have seen but his first movie made because I watched "Howl" the other night and it was Incredible. I will finish with this and that is that this movie is gut-wrenching to watch and will more then likely make you feel there is no longer any hope for civilization if you haven't already lost that but this is a Must-Watch movie that will question everything you hold dear considering this still happens in today's society all around the world. I'm honestly at a loss for words but just prepare yourselves for one of the the most unsympathetic and barbarous films you will ever watch and have a wonderful day.

  • A deaf mute girl cleans up and gives IV drugs to sex slaves? What an incredibly depressing premise. Abduction of Eden is hilarious by comparison. The directing is strong, with the back story told through flashbacks. This grim escape movie shows what happen when you are taken and your dad isn't Liam Neeson. "It's [an] atmospheric and tense journey. Arguably not unlike Gravity if you were to replace the vacuum of space with a bunch of angry dudes."- Luke Y. Thompson, Topless Robot

  • This dark disgusting story takes you down a road with twists and turns. The main character, Angel is outstanding as a deaf mute. You feel her pain and see her horrific life with a glimpse of hope......I don't understand why they keep these imprisoned, young prostitutes filthy and in rags, especially when the bastard running this disgusting business gets paid very well for his "Services"..... He does seem to somewhat care about the girls but doesn't do anything to help them even when their bones get broken.... Curious character..... Would have liked some background on him to figure out why he is doing this and so cruelly.... You only get to know a few characters and not very well.... I liked Angel's caring nature.... I liked the end......It had me sitting at the edge of my seat... Not bad for an American film......
