The scariest scene being the dining room scene after they invited some relative over for dinner.

I liked that movie a lot too, and agree that the dinner scene was probably more unsettling than the violent scenes.

Kudos for not shying away from the true horrors of the subject matter where many gloss and sugar-coat it.

I've had this in my Netflix streaming queue for a while now, so it's good to hear someone recommend it. I guess it's time to watch it. :)
