Seven-year-old Jeremiah lived a calm, comfortable life in the care of a loving foster home until the day his young mother Sarah (Argento) came to take him against his will into her reckless life of turmoil and depravity, between desolate truck-stops, flea bag motels, strip joints, drug den and deadbeat surrogate dads until he finds himself in the custody of his ultra-religious grandparents. Having adapted to his new life as a Christian fundamentalist, Sarah returns to claim her son. Bound by a love only a mother and son could have for each other, Sarah pulls Jeremiah further and further into her dementia. When Sarah is finally and wholly consumed by drugs, prostitution and violence, Jeremiah is forced into a desperate struggle to survive the madness of his surroundings.

Summary: The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things
Comment: I Thought It Was Very Well Thought Of, And Very Well Made, Although Clips Where Cut, Which I Was Quite Frustrated.
The Kids Acting in the movie was Excelently well Performed And The Movie Touched Me, because I Went Though Almost The Same Ordeal.
My Wife and I Cried,

Summary: Great Actors, Horrible Film
Comment: Well, if there is one positive thing to mention about this movie, it's that there are some great actors here and they do a good job with what they are provided. The problem is that the story is boring and it goes nowhere. I understand that some great movies can be about ugly topics, but to become great in this genre, they need to excel. This movie was just one scene after the next of bad things happening, with no real emotion about it all and no point or thought provoked by it. Very disappointing.

Summary: Devastatingly beautiful if somewhat distressing
Comment: This DVD is distressing in an educational sort of way.....it gives one pause to consider the lives that some vulnerable young people are forced to lead and how vulnerable their parents can also be in these circumstances...the life of the parent inevitably impacts on the life of the child and yet to see this young boy adapt to changing circumstances is not only a cause for concern, but hope, too!

Summary: Either you get it or you don't.
Comment: The people that are complaining about this movie wouldn't know a good movie if it him em in the face. These are probably the same people who get excited when Ben Affeleck's new movie comes out, or whatever blockbuster mega studio production movie they can attend. If your one of them, than you'll never appreaciate this movie. This is an indy flick, low budget, cult classic. The acting and directing is amazing, and the story is fabulous. Even the soundtrack (Subhumans, Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, Sex Pistols) is great. The actors, Peter Fonda, Asia Argento, Marilyn Manson, Jeremey Sisto, Michael Pitt, and Winona Ryder are all verry good in this movie. If you know good movies, than you'll love this film. If your amongst the silly ones who only watched this movie because Marilyn Manson is in it, than your wasting your time...go watch Ghost Rider instead.

Summary: THE CHILD DEVIANT!
Comment: This is an unforgettable low budget classic cult drama that is written by J.T. Leroy and directed (also starring) Asia Argento. The story is about a little boy who suffers some unspeakable abuse...the film shows you the world through his eyes. Many great actors are in the film such as Winona Rhyder, Jeremy Sisto, Michael Pitt, Peter Fonda, and an surprisingly good performance by Marilyn Manson. I strongly suggest this film. One of the most impressive indy films ever made in the history of history. Warning: Please be prepared to be shocked and offended by the substance matter.
