Brilliant and touching

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Agree with the most of the reviewers - McCord is an interesting actor, but this is terrible.It has to be the screenplay. The pace is so completely off that I wanted to give up halfway through. The bondage and electrocuting were unbelievable, the prisoners were moved around like dolls, the girl got to put on more and more clothes, their escape attempts were laughable, and some random convict was dropped in to pad out the plot. Finally the back story made a nonsense of the relationship between the two girls. Almost porn-feature quality.Toward the end it developed a sense of purpose and humour, but even then the writers didn't bother to make it plausible.Only marks are for McCord.

Forget what the haters say. I love this movie. AnnaLynne McCord gave a great performance in Scorned and i personally think she deserves an Oscar. She was funny, dark and very entertaining. AnnaLynne McCord is definitely an actress with a bright career ahead of her. Billy Zane did a great job in "Demon Kight" and "Only You" but there isn't much to say about his performance in Scorned. His character was just there like a lifeless corpse. Viva Bianca, she was in the movie too but it didn't make a difference if she was or not because AnnaLynne McCord totally stole the show.I told my mom to watch this movie and she really enjoyed it. I totally recommend this movie. Go watch it NOW!!!

The movie begins with a corny song over a laughable text message conversation so I knew right away this wasn't going to be something I would want to brag about seeing. The plot is about a complete psycho (AnnaLynne McCord) who discovers her boyfriend (Billy Zane) is cheating on her with her best friend (Viva Bianca). So she ties them both up and spends the bulk of the movie threatening and torturing them.AnnaLynne McCord, with her horrible Southern accent and tacky hair extensions, offers up an extremely campy performance. You will undoubtedly spend most of the time viewing this laughing your ass off at her. She seems to especially enjoy using profanity like a child who has just discovered dirty words. She's really the whole show here. Whether you find anything to like about this movie depends entirely upon how much you enjoy her bad acting. Well, whether it's bad or whether it's "so brilliant that you just think it's bad" is up to you to decide. I know which side of that I come down on.Billy Zane, once a respectable actor, has become moviedom's biggest garbage man. He keeps appearing in trash and getting paid for it. Viva Bianca is the only reason I checked this out in the first place. She looks amazing, even with that terrible wig on. Sadly, she plays the whole thing straight like she believes she's in Fatal Attraction or Misery. Don't get me wrong -- her acting isn't bad. It's fine, actually. It's just that opposite the scenery-chewing AnnaLynne McCord, she maybe should have tried to play the part a little more tongue-in-cheek. The script and direction did her no favors anyway. Director Mark Jones appears to have the same amount of talent as you would expect from your average Lifetime TV movie director. The story here is full of clichés and offers nothing to interest your average viewer, who has probably seen a version of this story done before and better. As a thriller, it's pretty weak. As an unintentional comedy, it's good for some laughs. Go into it with the right expectations and you might enjoy it.

So I don't want to rant too much about this movie, for fear for spoiling it for other people, but I would like to review it before losing my train of thought lol. Normally I would roll my eyes at the thoughts of another revenge slasher, but considering how pleasantly surprised I was with anna- lynne's last horror 'excision', I thought I'd give this a fair chance. Don't get me wrong, excision is not for the faint of heart, but it's so odd and so well thought, that I couldn't help but like it. It was great to see an actress who is fresh out of 90210, help give a name to slightly 'out-of-sorts' horror movies. Unfortunately I can't say the same about this movie, as much as I was looking toward to it, the disappointment was unavoidable. Aside from the main couple, the acting was terrible, along with the low- budget gore and special effects. The plot of very unrealistic, getting worse as it went on and along with the terrible camera work, it was almost unwatchable at times.I tried to like this movie, tried and failed. If your thinking of watching this movie because you like anna-lynne, in-particular horrors with anna-lynne, I wouldn't waste your time. It's low budget nonsense, so much lower than her capabilities.
