A childhood turned inside-out, seen through the eyes of a young boy. We follow Jeremiah and his prostitute mother Sarah into a world of drug dens, shotgun shacks, fleapit motels and strip joints, populated by predators, junkies and criminals. Subjected to a succession of deadbeat surrogate fathers and Sarah's descent into madness, Jeremiah is forced into a desperate struggle to survive, to retain the pure, enchanted vision through which he views and transforms his world.

Específicamente al principio, la película es cruda y áspera. El abuso de mujeres y niños es insoportable y debería ser severamente castigado. Desafortunadamente, el personaje de la madre de Jeremías es reflejo de la educación fanática de sus padres, por lo que no es sorprendente que haya terminado siendo una prostituta. Tanto Asia Argento como Jimmy Bennett hacen interpretaciones excelentes como protagonistas. Como alguien mencionó aquí antes, espero que la filmación no haya dejado huellas negativas en ellos. Me gusta que Asia Argento gane dinero en algunas basuras de Hollywood para luego poder realizarse en películas independientes y de bajo presupuesto. Estoy muy ansioso por ver cualquier película suya. También disfruté de los pequeños papeles de Winona Ryder, Ben Foster y Michael Pitt.

Asia may not be a terrible director, but her attempt to be shocking at all costs perfectly destroys the potential of the film, which was supposed to be the viewer's sympathy for the little boy. This does happen at times, but these drops of emotion are too abbreviated, much like the entire narrative. There is no interconnectedness between the line of fathers, stepfathers, and foster parents, and everything is done in a mostly simple edit. I gave up watching the content during the second half. I also think it's unfortunate about the wasted casting, given that the religious fanatic Peter Fonda or the redneck Marilyn Manson are absolutely fantastic. By contrast, Asia herself in the lead role doesn't have the chops to carry the film, certainly not in the moments when the film's dramatic arc is building. She did a better job when she was showing her bulging ass at the police station or during the dance number at the bar. As a whole, the film feels like a cheap provocation, although it is quite possible that it will appeal to some.
