Every time I drop that 2 ½ star rating I think of AC saying it is her least favorite rating. Since I have endured quite a few of them I have got to agree, it really stinks. 2 ½ is that rating that says it was almost good if they had only changed a few things. Unfortunately this Australian ditty based on the true story of a group of serial murderers, falls smack into that stinker of a rating for me. The film is a disturbing look at molestation and pedophilia from the standpoint of a single mother raising four boys. She begins dating a new guy who is the self appointed head of a neighborhood watch team. Her 16-year-old son Jamie gets deeply involved as the vigilantes abduct, torture and murder several suspected pedophiles.

that combo of rating + content = "never see" pile.
I'm with you, AC. Thanks for the heads up, Cat!
It sounds like it could be interesting. So what happens, does it turn into a witch hunt?
It's a true story so ultimately they all get arrested.
Oh great, now you spoiled it!!
(Just kidding) I guess that's one downfall of having watched so much horror, Cat - all the lame movies out there.
Eesh. I just looked up the real thing on Wiki.
Somehow it makes me more annoyed that the film is boring. As in "Oh great, first I'm killed by a psychopathic lynch mob and then they make a crap film about it."
