Good intentions .. gone wrong(?)
29 October 2022
No pun intended - if you have seen the movie (and I assume you have, so no warning necessary as far as I am concerned), you will know what I am talking about. All the main players talk about the making of the movie ... and how they have lived since. The movie is infamous for a reason ... or two. And if you are sensible, you probably should not watch it. The movie goes to the beginning ... and yes the very first question many of us have anyway: Why? Is there a reason someone would want to make a movie like this? And you get a satisfying answer.

It has to do with an incident the director had with his family. Having that as a backstory, may make you more ... well you may view the movie through a different perspective. Everyone involved wanted to do their best and of course they only depicted something that unfortunately does happen - not the revenge part (as much I assume), but the sexual assault part.

So putting a spotlight on that may have been a good things to do ... or at least it had good intentions to begin with. This really goes in depth and is not afraid to ask tough questions too. So while I may not be a fan of the movie itself, I do like the documentary itself! The people behind it - as one who has seen actors from the horror genre know best, are as sweet as you can imagine. Maybe this will change your mind about the movie ... I doubt it will do anything about the bad sequel to the original ... not the sequels to the remakes mind you ... it's getting complicated again ... anyway, violence is never the answer ... I think is the message here.
