This film isn’t for the faint of heart. There is a whole lot of rape. Basically every character either rapes someone, gets raped, or both. It’s a really artsy look at control, sexuality and gender roles. It’s the kind of movie you have to pay close attention to to get all the more subtle messages, though the very not subtle amounts of rape might make those nuances hard to focus on. It’s the story of a healthy, smart, attractive if not a bit emotionally distant college girl played by Rosario Dawson, who meets a handsome charming college boy played by Chad Faust, who is obviously very versed in picking up women. He says all the right things, does all the right things, and eventually lures Rosario back to his candle lit basement, where he precedes to graphically date rape her after she says no multiple times to his advances. He calls her all kinds of horrible degrading names, showing the true, very disturbing nature of his character. Instead of becoming the victim and moving home to finish her degree with some distance learning, Rosario meets Marcus Patrick, who plays bisexual drug sniffing DJ who opens her to a world of domination based sex. Now a turbo sex robot, Rosario lures Chad to her house, and gets him tied up. The end of the movie is a 20 minute rape scene, where Rosario and Marcus take turns on Chad, calling him lots of degrading names.Should you see this movie? Yes, if not only to see how uncomfortable it makes you. I suggest watching it alone, so you can really pay attention and explore all the crazy shit this movie does to your mind, also watching Rosario Dawson rape Chad Foust with a giant black phallus can be a little awkward with grandma next to you on the love seat.
