Thanks Princess!  I did not know about that one.  I don't know if I can stomach another movie based on this case.  Watching movies like this are not so bad if it's fiction and I know it.  But when a horror movie like this is based on real life events, it is very disturbing to me.
Life is scary nowdays.

It has certainly changed for the worse. Its all about street smarts now and if one doesn't have them, one parishes.

There are 23 "chapters" in this "story".  It tells the entire history of the case.
Very disturbing  :'(

Actually, I'm quite ill right now after reading that whole story.  I don't know if I'm going to be able to watch the movie  :'(

Watched it last night  :-\  Knowing the real story now, this movie was very loosely based on it.  IMO it wasn't all that well done (character development, etc.).  I will rent the other one too.  I think it follows the real story more accurately and Ellen Page is such a good actress, I'm sure it's well done.  I did read regardless of either depiction, it's only a fraction of what that poor girl endured.  Horrendous 

That woman was one F'd up bitch and those kids involved must've grown up really F'd up too.
