Review of Hurt

Hurt (2009)
8/10
Familiar, but still first rate b-movie thriller
22 November 2009
Warning: Spoilers
Barbara Stepanksky directed & co-wrote this little thriller with Alison Lee Bingeham. They wisely took plot developments from a few older familiar film PLUS a character from the classic. THE BAD SEED.

The cast is consists mainly of 5 people, mainly they are from various Television & cable shows. It is almost a large one set film,(A near deserted auto Junk yard.)

A recent widowed women, a late-teen aged son & daughter. This three-some move in with her quirky brother (owner of the junk yard ). these 4 nice people are trying to cope when a 13 year old young girl enters there lives..As I said above,. BAD SEED time again.

The cast consists of Melora Walters, William Mapother, Jackson Rathbone,Joanna Bradley & Sofia Vassiliva. All 5 are first rate.

It is a well done minor b-movie, Since there are no explosions or naked scenes It was released direct to DVD.

I think this film deserved a better fate. See it & I think you will agree.
