Just WOW!!

Be prepared to have your blood pressure raised. I'm only on the 2nd episode and I find myself baffled at how clueless the parents are!! I actually developed a disdain towards them; even moreso than the antagonist. I yelled at the television a few times. Omg!! This is based on a true story. I mean... they claimed they loved God, but these people were so out of touch with reality they were basically aiding and abbeding the abduction of their daughter. They're so dumb that it's almost comical. To be honest, it is comical but it's not supposed to be. I laughed at the parents at the sheer audacity, and also at the lengths that the villain went through making up that fantastical story and implementing everything that went along with it. I will say he is thorough. He's showing out in that role.

This whole scenario is shocking to say the least. The mother was guilty of crushing on the kidnapper, and the dad was too much of a wimp to put his foot down. Then the creepy wife of the kidnapper was just a shady character overall. And the parents tolerated her. Ugh! Come to think of it, none of the characters are likeable besides the FBI agent. He's the only one that has common sense. I had to pause it for a moment because I was legit getting worked up. I got to the scene when they were in the Mexican prison and the predator bribed the federale for alone time with the girl (to continue to brainwash her) and was actually granted it. Wtf!! Like I always say, a good song and a good movie will always make you feel something. No matter the emotion. This definitely has me in my feelings. Worth watching just for the shock factor. Disturbing, but I can't NOT watch. Lol.
