She's Crushed (2009)

Horror/Thriller     Not Rated

Plot

Love can be painful. Very painful. The intriguing-on-the-outside, twisted-and-tortured-on-the-inside Tara sets her sights on the unassuming guy-next-door Ray. Their innocent flirting turns into a regretful one night stand which he hopes to put behind him. Tara has different plans for their relationship. It becomes horrifically apparent that she refuses to be cast aside and is willing to go to sick extremes to keep her man as people in Ray's life are met with torturous ends. Amidst this violently twisted love story unfolds a profound social commentary on love and the effects of violence.

Acting

Natalie Dickinson is quite good as the psychotic hook-up, and Henrik Norlen is above average as the target of her "affection" . The rest of the cast is average, but still better than 90% of the movie turned out by Maverick Entertainment.

Gore

A guy is stabbed with pencil, a hand is shoved in a garbage disposal, there are some severed limbs, and some blood shed of an unknown origin. Also has a fairly bloody finale.

Sex/Nudity

One topless sex scene.

Final Thoughts

It is very rare to find an intelligently, and well made movie from the folks at Maverick Entertainment, as the usually just produced trash (some good, alot bad). However this is one of those (maybe the only one) instance. The script is well written, and the story is mostly intriguing, even if it is not at all original. It basically theres version of Fatal Attraction, and its one of there best movie, and probably the best acting performance of any of there movies. Go ahead and rent it, or buy it cheaply.
