This is not the kind of film where twists and turns happen every minute. It's more of a slow build in tension (following a great opening scene) but I never felt bored during the runtime. The protagonist, the villain, and the victims are all compelling and at the end I didn't even know who to root for but I was just sitting there fascinated. One thing that sets this movie apart for me, especially, is that it doesn't rely on frequent or graphic violence to be disturbing. Horrific violence occurs, but it's largely implied rather than shown, which I think is in good taste for this sort of film. Definitely worth a watch for, I would say, ages 15+.
