    thought the storyline was pretty rough and it had some very brutal scenes.

    The story is somewhat intriguing enough to keep you interested. Selma Blair plays a woman wronged who wants the past to be fixed. Interested enough to watch.

    Well cast, Terrifing dark examination of survival instincs and guilt. No abvious plot flaws. Terrifing situations not suitable for the average smoe.
