Disgusting murder scene...almost turned off...

I fast forwarded for the strangling set the remote down but could not get it for the stabbing scenes it happened to fast. I realize that this happened but did we have to see it in such graphic detail?

The acting and directing were excellent that made it easier to watch as well as the cinematography.

I just felt dirty and kind of sick afterward I guess that is what the screewriter and director wanted us to feel the same way that poor girl did.

the murder scene was extremely hard to watch, but i understand why they made it so realistic. it wasn't just gratuitous violence.

It made me feel sick too but I like that they made it look realistic. Usually in scenes like that, the person struggles for about 5 seconds or so then dies. The fact that they show how hard and time-consuming it is shows how awful and heartless Caroline is.

The scene was hard to watch but I think the drooling in her mouth made it 10x's worse. I don't know why that bothered me so much but it really did.

It showed the reality of the murder, that it wasn't accidental, but very deliberate.

It was much less bloody or violent than any movie out the, or even the series based on the Australian crime lords.

BOHICA America!

Yeah it was very very graphic and realistic, but I actually think her parents would've wanted it that way, as opposed to cheesey and too Hollywood, because they wanted people to know the reality of what Caroline did. It must've been incredibly hard for them to watch though, if they did at all.
