Looks like I'm in the minority here and I know it's not for everyone, but I did find this indie rather engaging and clever, that is if you don't think about the premise too much which is preposterous for sure.Why is a very sexy teen (Sophie Turner), who has just moved in to a motel, coming on to her new neighbor (Dylan McDermott), who is much older than her and quite shy and lonely, with his best friends being two pet tortoises?As the movie progressed, I pretty much figured out why, but that didn't prepare me for its most violent finale. I found this film kept me interested throughout its duration and wondering where it all was going to end up.To note, there were no subtitles on my DVD copy obtained at Redbox, but I was able to access them through the closed captioned option on my remote.

This is a great film, ruined by the deus ex machina!

I probably wouldn't bother with this movie if I had known how below average it was like beforehand. It isn't terrible, but it is slow, the plot twist (if you an call it that) became completely evident once Hank revealed the job he used to do and the movie just lacked any real depth.
Save yourself 90 minutes and give something else a go. Similar movies are about like this one, but done much better - The Hand That Rocks The Cradle, Hard Candy, Lady Vengeance to name a few

Hank, a solitary man living a dull existence in the sleepy, Southern town raises eyebrows when he develops a questionable relationship with Josie, a recently transplanted high school student. To be honest i wasn't expecting this movie to be good and all of my fears came true i'm afraid, the perfomances from both main stars are good for the most part but the film is so freaking slow and their relationship leads to a horrible finale that was terrible on so many levels that left me shocked in a bad way. (2/10)
