mmm... i mean its not like anywhere else dont have horrible crimes like this but you have to accept guys that the US has the most *beep* up crimes in history, in it majority caused by caucasian people (serial killers, crazy ass girls, high school massacres, pretty *beep* up *beep* for an instance, is not unusual for me to find out in the news that some crazy ass white girl killed her son or daughter because she was depressed or some stupid *beep* like that, i dont think that people are born *beep* up (or i dont know if you guys have it on the genes haha), instead, i think that the us culture its pretty repressed and very influenced by violence its the only way i could imagine some crazy ass *beep* like this happens, i know that a lot of angry people might reply to this message telling me to go to hell or that my mother should go throw herself from a precipice or something like that, im just throwing that out there.....

It's funny when people across the world point fingers, snicker and say how beeped up we are.

A. Every country has their own problems no country is perfect, otherwise you'd all be able to keep your people in your little neck of the woods.
2. We enjoy to be entertained and can NOT fathom how some one could do this, so we watch in a negative awww.
C. Makes me wonder if some people are so messed up here, how come THOSE people aren't in the service protecting our neck of the woods. THEY'D kick ass! Oh but that's right, torturing bad men/women is wrong *rolls eyes*

Americans are simple people, but piss us off and we'll nuke your city.

Yes, I am American, born and raised. And yes, I agree with you. I've only read your post and none of the replies so I'm going in blind and I know I'm at risk of being roasted alive. :oD But I think in some states here there's almost an "anything goes" mentality, and not enough being done to stop crime such as it is. But that's a debate for another time.

When I saw this movie was going to air on the Chiller channel I thought it'd be a good horror movie. I never thought Chiller would air something like this and I never knew it was a true story until I started watching it, and anyone who's seen it(all of you I'd guess) knows how it starts off. It begins slowly and takes a while to build up to anything horrific, so I was stuck when it got bad and just had to see it through. I was hoping for the best but didn't get it and instead I've felt sick to my stomach for a solid week every time I think of the movie and that poor, sad girl, Meg. It's a lesson learned for me on choosing my tv viewing. I know it's out there but I don't have to see it and I won't from now on, if at all possible. I know I can't stop people like this and the helplessness it makes me feel isn't worth putting myself through it.

I wish this had been a good horror movie but instead I got a huge dose of reality in my face and I wish every day I hadn't seen it. Live and learn.

This too shall pass.

And us Americans are supposed to be the ignorant ones.

We are an enormous country and every side of us is different. Unfortunately our previous president was a stereotype of American ignorance in the flesh and just backed up the belief further that we had a huge bloodlust. Violence happens in EVERY country. Most Americans, not all but the majority, are now very aware of the atrocities our own government and people have inflicted on each other and other countries, currently and previously.

I can assure you Mr. Crappynick, this crime and others like it are not considered shining moments in US culture. Most Americans were unaware of this abuse and this film and others like it bring them to the surface not for an ignoramus like you to criticize an entire country.

We seem to deem sex and drugs more corrupting then violence and gore in media today. But if crimes like these were so common everyday in America then why would someone waste there time making a film about it?

this x1000

It's amazing how many will un-ironically stereotype 300M individuals across a vast assortment of regions as "ignorant, McDonalds-eating, Bush-living" etc. They're projecting all their issues and insecurities onto a strawman caricature that represents everything they can't control in their life. Easier to ignore your own problems when you have a symbol to hate.

Nothing more pathetic than an individual whose entire identity is based on where they happened to be born.

I cant Believe you. are you trying to blame all the sick and twisted people in the world on Americans? That is ignorant. What have Americans done to you.

[–] ryagudina 15 years ago

Crappy, your name suits you to the max. IF you are really in Mexico, then please explain it to me like I am a two year old, how is that kidnapped victims end up tortured if captors do not receive the ransom money on time? How is that scores of women and little girls and boys are abducted every year and raped and sold to brothels and pedophiles? I do not see a hand of USA there, all I see is Mexicans killing and torturing and raping other Mexicans. And come to think of it, there is a serial killer(s) and sexual sadists in every country, just not every country makes it official.
For a very long time, Russia was a perfect communist country where nothing had ever gone wrong, until there was Andrey Chikatilo and the we came to learn that things are not the way they are presented to us. I am not even going to talk about whole generation of Germans who showed what they were capable of during WWII or talk about African countries where people are killed, tortured and raped on a daily basis just because they speak different dialect or worship different god. Nuff said.
Take you ignorant a** somewhere else, America or not, it is the people who make decisions to be evil and not a country or a nation.

I sort of agree. As an American, there are some f-ed up people here. There are sickos everywhere though. Look at the guy in Austria that had his daughter in an underground room for 25 years and even fathered children with her. That's probably the most f-ed up thing I've ever heard. They should make a movie about it.

Sick things happen everywhere, it's the human condition, but only in America can you do something sickening, pay a lawyer to get you off the hook, then make millions off a tell-all book that also gets turned into a movie. Capitalism and democracy ftw!

"Only in America"?!? Really?!? You need to do better research! Here are just a few names that are NOT in America that you might want to take a gander at. Joran Vanderslut(sorry if my spelling is off. I think most will know who I am talking about!) Paul and carla bennardo, baby p (peter connelley)parents, shirley turner who not only murdered a wonderful man; DR. Andrew Bagby, but was allowed to TORTURE his parents and murder the little MIRACLE that Andrew unknowingly left behind for them, his son Zachery!! Even though she murdered Andrew(an american citizen) in america; she went to newfoundland and they kept fighting extradition to the USA. Even with no question of the fact that she was guilty, the "justice" system there allowed her to remain free while awaiting trial and declared her no threat to the public!! Are you kidding me!! She shot a man 5 times simply because he wanted to break up with her!! Just watch the heart breaking docu. called Dear Zachary, a letter to a son from a father. This is just a small example of injustice that did NOT take place in the US justice system!! Yes it does happen here just like the rest of the world!!

Boy that's rich, coming from Mexico of all places.
The kidnap capital of the world.
Perhaps if your crime committing countrymen would stay in their own country, our crime rate would drop.
Maybe, coming from Australia or a European country you'd have room to talk, but coming from one of the most corrupt and degenerative cesspools in the Western Hemisphere not so much.
Oh and before I forget, PLEASE STAY IN MEXICO!
