SunnyHello Nice effects though.
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
eliselovesfairies I watched the film about 2 weeks ago, I was alone downstairs and I wasn't so sure about watching it, as it would upset me because I'm a cutter myself and i was worried about it triggering something. I think the film shows Dawn having a few problems but no way near as bad as most people. I used to have a family life a little worse than that in fact i still do and things in her life to me were nothing compared to how bad things in other peoples life was and in mine which i found quite insulting in a way, but i did enjoy it i would like to watch it again but maybe it needs to be a little more realistic, I also thought the cuts were a little strange as they don't bleed like that which to me felt like i was not cutting right which sounds awful but anyway i do think that people should watch this movie and get a feeling of how it does ruin your life.
alicespiral Something of a waste even making movies like this as its a subject which makes no sense to most I just saw it on one of the True Stories channels and even if its based on a number of these kind of things its hardly powerful drama. Why do people do this stuff? The mainly women who do it I would regard as unreal and the best thing that could happen to them would be having a religious conversion.Then they may realise that life is too precious to mess with like that What sort of problems justify this damn stupid behaviour? Its too baffling to even think about Real problems for many are things like blindness,living in poverty with not enough money. Even drug addiction and drunkenness can make more sense than self harming
laura I began self-injuring at the age of about 5 or 6 and still struggle with it today at age 34. (Although it is mostly under control, the urges are still there and cuts occur maybe once a year now.) For the most part I think the movie did a pretty good job-- but her reactions as she was cutting at times were unrealistic... almost euphoric or even orgasmic.... and the spreading the blood all over the hallway just doesn't happen. I always kept it as contained as possible and was able to keep it a secret for a long time. I did agree with the frantics going on as she was searching for a razor, anything sharp-- I've been there, rushed to the drawer only to find there isn't anything in there to use. You'll find anything you can to make into a tool that'll do the trick.I guess I don't know about others, but the night when she went to that guy's house and let him and all his friends have his way with her.... just also didn't fit. But maybe it did-- just maybe to emphasize the fact that she would inflict pain on herself anyway she could.Another scene that comes to mind-- in the car, with the cigarette lighter. When her parents found her out there doing that, she looked stoned and happy... again, to me was unrealistic. It did bring a great deal of relief when emotional pain was building up, but didn't bring a euphoria to me.... just made me stop my mind-racing and just calm down. But it got to the point where even crazy HAPPY feelings made me want to cut too. Really anytime I had strong emotions I would turn to that instead of trying to express anything.Anyhoooo.... overall a good movie, but as usual a few things seem to have been over-dramatized for effect.
sherryberry62 I love this movie. It's about a Girl who takes out her pain by cutting herself. And i'm just like the Character in some ways. I'm a cutter,and sometimes I do the eye brow thing. Hope you like it, if you never saw it before. The girl is a great actress for the job. The first time I saw the movie, i was about 10, now I'm 12 and This movie is my favorite one now. Thank's for Reading my comment. I love the movie, but I don't know who Directed it. "Painful Secrets" aka: "Secret cutting". Kimberlee Peterson's movies / TV shows are usually pretty cool. My friend saw it, and she told me about it, saying i really needed to see it. She was right, and I loved it and still do.
