AKA:
Directed by: Kieran Galvin
Starring: Nadia Townsend (Liz), Bernard Curry (Aiden), Susan Ellis (Helen), Terence Donovan (Doctor)
Country: Australia; Effed Up Australian Movies
Language: English (Optional Eng Subs)
Runtime: 01:34:35
Genres: Captivity-Kidnapping, Mental Illness, Self-Harm

Plot – Spoilers:
Aiden spots Liz at a store and later sees her trying to kill herself. So he partypoops her suicide attempt, takes her home located in the middle of nowhere and holds her captive under the watch of two adorable dogs. He also constantly calls her Helen, the name of his wife.

Liz is coming from a fucked up situation herself. She watched her kid brother throw himself off a building, ran over her sister’s dog and got thrown out of their flat, not necessarily on account of the dog. So Liz is kind of ok with anything that happens in her life. Well maybe not all ok, but at least she’s not hysterical when she awakens to her new fate with Aiden.

Liz has a few things going for her though. She’s smart and though she feels intimidated by Aiden’s quiet aggression, she’s not flustered by his bizarre behaviour and has enough of her wits about her to know he’s probably unhinged and that she shouldn’t go blind into an escape plan, but instead bide her time. She’s also manipulative – for the longest while, she’d used her charms on her brother-in-law to keep him on her side – now, this trait could turn out quite useful. But most of all, she can lie with a straight face.

But Aiden isn’t just sitting by, watching Liz being cheered on into escape by the viewer. He seems pretty sly too. He’ll play unhinged, but only up to a point. The moment it tips over to her possibly outwitting him, he can quickly switch back to making a very sane and well-thought-out decision.

It’s cat and mouse. Who’s gonna make it…

Please note:
wrt the optional English subs available, the timing isn’t great. Too many mistakes, too much of a hassle, so corrected minimally.

Glad the third act wasn’t spoiled, as it left me scratching my head the entire time. Not sure what to make of that, but definitely some great moments. Movie did a complete 180 in a way I’m not sure I can even explain, but definitely haven’t seen anything like it. Kept me guessing, not necessarily in a good way, but in a way I found pretty enjoyable. Aptly named by the way, there were in fact three dogs (one even lives)

My favourite part was at the end, when he’s wondering how the baby came out with red hair. She says it must be a throw back. Then you instantly remember the brother-in-law from the start of the film – lol!

Can a movie still be concerned fucked up if it has a happy ending? Sorry this inquiry is only barely relevant to this movie in the sense that it is fucked up. But I really wanted some thoughts on this and I didn’t know where to ask. Please don’t name any movies! Just give your honest thoughts on the subject. Thanks.

I like watching rape movies, i thought it would have had a rape scene i could masturbate to. But it didn’t, but i still watched it with my wife. My thought is that this movie is very optimistic, not so realistic. But heh, you can’t expect realism from movies, right? haha.

It would appear that two dumbfuck, pussified prudes didn’t appreciate your honesty. The theater of your mind is your right and your business. If it’s just a film, involving only consenting adults actors consenting to be in a rape scene, then milk your prick until you set a new world record and laugh at your self righteous detractors!

Personally, I believe that there are only a small number of people worthy of universal contempt; A braggart Man…a know it all woman… a mouthy child…a dangerous animal…and a prudish ANYTHING.

Haha, very accurate man. It’s not like i am watching someone get “actually raped”, these are actors. They are made for this, it’s their job. Many fragile individuals here lol.

Yep. Lots of twerps that haven’t seen shit in their lives and can’t decide if they want to be edgelords or sjws when they come here and get more than what they bargained for. It’s the same thing with real life shock sites like Bestgore (r.I.p.) I get the biggest kick out of some of the titles some of the illiterate, ghetto ass ync users give to video footage that they think is hardcore bdsm. “Woman get her ass cane to far yo!”. And I’m like ” Just looks like another Saturday night to me.”.

No one actually answered your question so i will. I think yes definitely a truly fucked up movie can have a happy ending. There are movies even on this site with torture, rape, kidnapping, serial killer and a happy ending all in the same movie. The movies I’m talking about are well known for being fucked up and not just in a community like this I’ve seen them on netshits (netflix). This also depends on what you define as being a “happy ending” is it everyone smiling and hugging and celebrating and over the fuckin moon like a disney movie or the lead role is alive and safe as well as satisfied with themselves? Maybe ask yourself that question first. In my honest opinion yes a truly fucked up movie can have a happy ending.

Bit boring first part, made love in the mean time; second part better, more interesting. It’s true how bring surrounded by evil can make us do misdeeds ourselves. God knows how often serial murderers or lone gunmen have been bullied. The media generally is on the side of the bastards who provoked.

This movie is unintentionally hallarious and I 100% think it was made to show off her A1 Acups. Like seriously I’m impressed by how nice them Itty bitty bits are.

Grade A vegan tittys.

Notice how her boobs are all I’m talking about? That’s all I remember from this movie. I couldn’t tell you wtf I just watched. It’s like a not deep black snake moan.
