I have a hard time with movies that are pure torture (not a judgement; just a comfort level thing), and this movie had a bit more going on, so I liked it more than, say a Mum & Dad. Robin McLeavy (Lola) toward the end was really funny; some great direction there as she goes utterly mad.

I think I'd actually go as far to recommend this movie, sans caveats.
I am glad you like it.

It's a fantastic little contemporary piece of cinema (that's why it finds a place in the HDC Top 200 of the 2000s) and more people need to see it to appreciate it for what it was.

Berserk, at it's absolute best. Try beating this intensity in a horror film.
