Mixen in way too many ideas to be watchable


Incest, rape, cannibalism, slavery, family violence, torture, murder, Jesus this movie just dosnt know when to stop does it?

A story about an abusive father and a wild woman would already be enough to make a heavy movie, but then it has to drag in every other gimmick in it it can.
Not to mention the stupidity of the ending, i mean the guy attacks and kills the teacher after years of playing it safe? Nobody will notice a missing person, police wont come, she didnt tell anybody shes coming, his, boyfriend, husband family member? She didnt take a buss a car?
Nope, he just casually kills her.

I really dint like it, a better director and writer could really make a good movie out of similar material, since the twist about the father being here the best is great.

Technically, he didn't kill her; he dragged her out to the barn where the cannibalistic dog girl killed her. But, I agree, what you say seems like a major script flaw. He didn't even know if the teacher had someone in her vehicle in the driveway waiting for her.

It could be argued, however, that the misogynistic sadist came to his breaking point after his wife finally stood up to him and said she was leaving with their daughter. That plus beating his wife unconscious and his incestuous activities with the daughter about to be exposed publicly pushed him over the edge and he was no longer reasoning in a sane way.
