I liked this dark gem. It explored the lowest most base instincts of human nature and I thought the ending was the only outcome that could have worked.

It was disconcerting in that it presented no real 'good guys', just desperate fuckups in desperate situations, creating more desperation with every move.

I thought it quite remarkable, actually. No nice ending to sooth the rough edges....just consequences, deep and shitty. Same thing that I liked about NCFOM. :)
