This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

This is literally, without doubt, the worst movie I've ever seen, and I've actually kind of seen a lot. Normally I can also sort of enjoy watching movies that are generally considered as being bad because they often tend to be so bad that they become funny. This is not the case with Dungeon Girl. Dungeon Girl is so bad that it becomes funny how bad it is, and even further, so that it becomes bad again, in a non-funny way.First of all it's really slow and insipid, and secondly you get a feeling that the director wants it to be some kind of an art movie by filming in many different weird angles and have many scenes that come back repeatedly. This is done over and over and over again, and it fails utterly every single time, because it doesn't feel artistic at all, only weird and forced.Another thing that got me a bit mad about this movie is the cover, which actually looks like a rather representable movie cover and which made me at least get my hopes up a bit about the movie before watching it.The description of the movie says that it is a "shocking psychological thriller" but the only thing I find shocking about this movie is that someone thought that it was a great idea to release it at all and during the time watching it I didn't really know if I were to laugh or cry.So if you want to save yourself 81 minutes of your precious lives, this might be just the movie for you to skip!

...it would be. Can't just find one word. This movie was the biggest load of crap I have ever seen. If IMDb would let me rate this movie 0/10 i would give it a 0. When i first rented it with my mates, i thought, well maybe we'll see the true horrifying story behind this. We were wrong. The movie was clearly shot in a few days. The guy that kept her "in a basement/dungeon" had the same shirt the whole movie. In Finland this movie is rated "not suitable for under 18". The only part that i thought was "sick", were when they showed the guy naked showering and when he made love to a doll. That's it. The girl, stated that she loved him. The "bad guy" who kidnapped her, became the hero. He thought her many things, they had fun together, both laughing. For a low-budget movie this was very bad. I always thought that the worst movie ever were Dark Floors, Epic movie or something like that. After this movie, I can't possibly find a worse movie. The only thing you have to know is, DO NOT WATCH THIS.

..Then DO NOT watch this movie. I was seriously disappointed in this, even though I had no expectations. It seemed to me as an 81 minute long intro to what looked like a really boring documentary. The narration voice was weak as probably intended, but it really got on my nerves after 3 minutes. You are asked so many questions by the narrator, but you NEVER seem to find the answer in this film.The cover claimed to have based this movie on a true story: the story of Natascha Kampusch. The only similarities are the captivity for 8 years and the hints of Stockholm syndrome.Basically, you get 81 minutes of recurring clips of the captivator masturbating using a doll, playing guitar, watching Christian TV, reading and cooking. Our main character sits still most of the time, looking like she is seriously ill, even though we learn that she 'loves' her captivator.All I can say about this movie, besides what's already been said is, that the acting and chemistry was extremely bad, camera, graphics and everything you see is not beautiful, artistic or raw in any way, but the 'just filmed it with that cam I bought in the supermarket'-way.I warn you, this movie will drive you even more nuts than the main character already is.

There is honestly not much to say. The movie was simply very bad. Worst movie I have ever seen. Don't be fooled by the DVD or VHS cover because that is the only good thing of this whole package. The movie repeated itself all the time and when it wasn't boring, it was just confusing or making you wanna hit your head on the wall. Obviously the whole point of this movie was to give the viewer some sense of the all the feelings the girl was going through. The movie was trying to be very artistic. It failed miserably and only gave the audience a pure feeling of disappointment, frustration and wanting to throw the TV out from the window. If you love yourself, don't watch it.
