Frayed

It was a slow night, not much was going on. Me and my cousin were just lying around, trying to find something to watch on the mind numbing tube. Of course, we couldn't find anything at all; then we were both like "lets rent a movie!"
My cousin is 22 years old so there is quite a difference between our ages, yet we have so many things in common. One of the biggest things is that we are both obsessed with thriller movies and scary things. I love scary/crime movies with a huge passion and so does she. She is even is getting into a career that involves dealing with troubled and psycho people, which may seem insane, but I actually think that would be really interesting. Anyways, we established that our movie was going to be a good and scary mystery type film, so I went to the category and we began our search.
The list held good movies that we both had seen, but also movies that shouldn't even be allowed to be on the list because they were down right horrible. All of a sudden we came across a movie called "Frayed". It seemed perfect! The summary stated that a deranged psycho path escaped from the asylum trying to reach his family, unleashing the true secret from his past. So amazing, right?
And so the movie began! It started out with home videos of what looked like a little girls birthday. It showed clips of her opening her presents, while her brother kept stealing them away from her. Then came one of the boy hitting the pinata harder and harder until it was broken into little pieces. The mother got upset with the boy and sent him to his room. The movie then showed the mom, still recording, walking upstairs to talk to the boy about why he was sent to his room. All of a sudden, the camera fell to the floor and of course landed perfectly only showing the mother laying on the ground. She was being hit over and over again in the face by a bat, while screaming her sons name. It was grotesque and graphic, making me want to puke! That was just the beginning and I was already feeling the uncomfortable, scared emotion.
The movie then went on and told the story of the little boy growing old in the asylum, then breaking out of it. It is truly hard to explain what went on in the movie because it had so many twists and turns, but the ending was definitely the weirdest. It is one of those totally screwed up endings that throw you a huge curve ball. The whole time you watch the movie, you have to make sure you pay attention to every detail or else you won't get it. It honestly was a really good movie and I would watch it again, even though when we finished it I couldn't fall asleep for the longest time. That is two thumbs up for the movie! Way to go!
