The Worst Film Ever

Sorry, this movie sucks

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Travis (Mark Leonard Winter) is a psychologist who treats patients. He became too close to patient Rachel (Kate Cheel) who tried to walk on air. Feeling guilty he resorts to addictive pain killers, and ends up in a group run by Father Jay (Steve Le Marquand). He is attracted to Grace (Tilda Cobham-Hervey) who helps out. The group is run like a boot camp and a cult, as Father Jay treats the soul for the physical addiction. Travis has flashbacks to his painful times with Rachel and how he may have "pushed" her over the edge...figuratively speaking. About an hour into the film Travis has an epiphany which changes the direction of the film and in a way waking it up, unfortunately it was too little too late.Film was pretty boring. You might want to take a pain killer to watch it. While addiction was part of the story, it doesn't really deal with the topic, it just uses it to weave a tale.Guide: F-bomb, brief oral sex. No nudity.

Travis was the worst unprofessional mental health doctor ever. Sex with a patient. The he goes off to a cut camp after she kills herself. He sees a mentally ill male getting raped in the wood, so what he goes and confront him, and then confront his rapist in front of the entire cult. Tom goes to recuse Travis the next day, but he's the most HollyWood breakdown van ever made.Then he goes out of his way to help the rapist cult leader. Then this smart guy goes to rescue a very mentally ill Grace(who's about to kill people on a train with children.

some reviews were to me only negative, due the the lack of understanding, how in some respects the cult was showing true and brutal honest insight toward the main character..a man who was living his world only able to face all that surrounded him through abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol.. he hated himself had no respect or worth of his life and was disgusted with his selfish behavior that led to his wife's suicide..it got to the point not even the drugs were enough to face the truth about who had become..he took an overdose then made a call to the cult that he had tried to understanding by attending a meeting but saw nothing but flawed actions and left..but the people of the cult when he phoned to say he was dying from an overdose they came and saved his life ...took him to the "farm" and treated him with no respect show dislike toward him and forced him to suffer in every way while his body went through withdrawal from the drugs and alcohol addiction he chosen in his world of hell..it was the only way to show that why should anyone show him everything he hated and disrespected his whole life he chosen why show nothing but disgust to some that disgusted themselves and it was away to make him see through it all the only true path to take to really see his mistake and judgments on a world he felt no place to exist in and when his body was clean from addiction he then had to face the demons that had caused his life to be an existence of suffering and self inflicted pain from circumstances beyond his control..and the cult did guide him to release the pain and anger inside and finally let go of the darkness that held its grip upon his soul.....it all seemed too good to be true to be watching a movie that you really had to concentrate on and pay attention to to be able to see it held profound depth ....but as in all walks of life...nothing is for free...there are consequences and there are cults that show good on the outside..but all leaders of such groups seem always to get a high from the control and power they have over their flock..and an ugly and dark side of what seemed a leader of exception to the norm..wasn't so..he too was a person who creates these groups for control and power ...and all the healing he had helped the main character through was soon destroyed when his dark side imposed upon a young boy to which the main character was witness to..sickened him and all he felt was betrayal lies and cruel secrets.. it was indeed on of the profound movies that portray typical cult story lines..and this film held itself until the end, which sad and unacceptable conclusion but a destiny which had just been hindered through its journey to the end...

It's an unwelcome responsibility to be the only one to write about this bubble from the swamp of fringe Australian production in which the hopes of a cross section of the country's film making talent are obviously emotionally invested. It has one great idea, the broken character absorbed into a cult gone bush is himself a therapist, which gives him some understanding of what is happening.However if we are going to tackle this film on the level of high seriousness, which it clearly would like, note absence of religion which is the back bone of pretty well all such operations and the objection that sudden sodomy is not the central evil that makes them destructive.The grainy images assembled in jagged discontinuity take a while to lose conviction and there are moments which engage - Winter's self dismissal, Le Marquand's Iraq monologue, the swinging at the punching bag routine. However on a single viewing there is no feeling that there is some great truth buried by the production's excessive length.
