Scary film, greatly acted, and enjoyed every minute!

Rating: Null/10 (1 October 2009)

This film at first was something I did not want to see. I am adopted and I really thought it gave adoption a bad name.
That being said I have finally seen this film tonight when it came to the dollar show by me. I figured if it did what I thought it was going to do and make adoption look bad I wouldn't be mad losing a dollar.
I was amazed by this film. It actually shows the dark side of family life as it is today. A lot of families probably go through some of the things this family went through though not all at once.
The girl who plays Esther did such a remarkable job I cannot wait to see her in something else.
Although I wanted to strangle the parents through most of the movie for being such idiots in life and not deserving children to begin with it makes you think Thank god that isn't my family.
Made me wonder how some people even get through the system and end up able to adopt. Those people should have NEVER been able to.
GREAT movie though and the twist I NEVER saw coming. I thought this was just an updated version of the BAD SEED. But NOPE BAM! SHOCKER! Definitely a must see! I did see a family bring 3 kids who looked about 14, 12 & 8. DO NOT BRING ANYONE UNDER 16 YEARS OLD. It is rated R for a reason people!
