Scorned (2014)

So much average

Overrated

Absolutely the worst movie.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

****SPOILERS**** A movie about brutal ravage as well as manipulation by this psycho Sadie, AnnaLynne McCord,whom her cheating boyfriend Kevin played by Billy Zane, sporting a Marlon Brando like " Apocalypse Now" style haircut, whom she discovers through his twitter account is planning to dump her for her best friend Jennifer, Viva Bianca. Not being that wrapped tight to begin with, Sadie spent the last 10 years in mental hospital for drowning her kid sister, Sadie now plans to get even with Kevin & Jennifer in the most brutal and sadistic way imaginable! With Kevin inviting Sadie to spend the night with him at his country estate, he seems to be very well taken care of financially, he then plans to lays the news on her about leaving her for Jennifer as smoothly as possible.Not knowing what Sadie knows and plans for him as well as his new found girlfriend, Sadie's best friend, Jennifer Kevin is taken by complete surprise in getting stoned and finding himself tied up in bed and totally helpless. Things get really hot when Jennifer shows up thinking she'll leave for Europe with that gorgeous hunk of a man, all 280 pounds of him, Kevin who also ends up being held hostage and tortured by Sadie. It' s then that things get real hairy with Sadie literally putting the screws on the two lovebirds and getting a real kick out of it.***SPOILERS*** As vicious and brutal as Sadie is she's also extremely lucky as well. During the entire movie no one excepts her victims has a clue to what she's up to and what she's doing. She escapes by the skin of her teeth in being caught by the police when stopped by them to see if she's harboring an escaped lunatic, Doug Drucker, a battered & bloody Jennifer whom Sadie though that she already murdered suddenly pops out of the bushes to tell them what she did to her and Kevin! It's then on cue a truck come out of the darkness and runs her down and crushes her to death before she can open her mouth! As for Kevin he gets his while trying to hobble to safety, after Sadie busted his ankle, in his motor boat only to get killed in a life and death struggle with Sadie by its propellers! Making as if she's the victim in her being kidnapped and raped by the escaped lunatic Drucker, whom she also murdered, Sadie gets a clean bill of health from the clueless police! And as we later see at the end of the movie, after recovering from her wounds, she's back in business again!

Agree with the most of the reviewers - McCord is an interesting actor, but this is terrible.It has to be the screenplay. The pace is so completely off that I wanted to give up halfway through. The bondage and electrocuting were unbelievable, the prisoners were moved around like dolls, the girl got to put on more and more clothes, their escape attempts were laughable, and some random convict was dropped in to pad out the plot. Finally the back story made a nonsense of the relationship between the two girls. Almost porn-feature quality.Toward the end it developed a sense of purpose and humour, but even then the writers didn't bother to make it plausible.Only marks are for McCord.

Rich love-rat Kevin (Billy Zane) cheats on his girlfriend Sadie (AnnaLynne McCord) with her sexy BFF Jennifer (Viva Bianca). When Sadie rumbles the infidelity (after finding saucy text messages on Kevin's cellphone) she decides to teach the naughty pair a lesson they won't forget.Halfway through Scorned and I was about to write the film off as a total failure, when I suddenly realised that the ridiculous script and overblown performances were intentional: I was actually watching a dark comedy! I guess the fact that I couldn't discern the film's intended nature for quite some time still makes it something of a failure, but after my epiphany, the rest of the movie proved far more bearable, with AnnaLynne McCord's performance being a master-class in OTT cinematic craziness.With Sadie prancing around in her panties, sexy Jennifer showing us exactly how she managed to turn Kevin's head, some reasonably sadistic violence (including a nasty hobbling scene inspired by Misery), and the hilarious sight of an escaped convict, tattooed over his entire face, thumbing a lift in the rain, Scorned actually proved to be a reasonably fun way to waste some time. While not the finest title on Billy Zane's filmography, it's not the biggest embarrassment on it either (there are so many to choose from).

I just finished watching this film, and came here to see what others thought of it. I'm actually surprised not many liked it. For sure there were some major plot holes, but I always lean toward the philosophy of suspension of disbelief when I spot these errors, especially in horror films. So story wise, I do agree with the other commentators that the script could have used a good polish by just about anyone who has read a book.But I do have to recommend the movie for the acting of the lead actress. I have never seen Anna Lynn McCord in anything, so had no idea if she was any good. Turns out she was good. She plays scary psycho fairly well, but not enough for the role to become iconic like Glenn Close as Alex Forrest in Fatal Attraction. But she is young and will probably be able to deliver some sort of outstanding performance in the future. Anyway I gave it 6/10, but that was mostly because of McCord.
