9 Days Trailers

A dark, twisted retelling of "Dante's Inferno," done in the torture-porn style of "Hostel" and "High Tension." To escape her abusive foster home, headstrong 18-year-old Danielle Hitches a Ride with an affable psycho who calls himself Virgil and has an axe to grind against women based on his warped religious beliefs. She realizes she hasn't quite found her knight in shining armor when she awakens half-naked, chained to a post in Virgil's basement. As Virgil, puts Danielle through a sadistic "moral cleansing" of debauched torture sessions that could kill her at any moment, she must choose either to fight back or to become as inhuman and deranged as Virgil himself. What Virgil doesn't know is that Danielle may be more than up to the challenge of his psychotic head games.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
Bofsensai For an effort 'crowd funded', this really has to deserve top marks: both direction and acting, latter especially with main new star, Maura Murphy (as kidnapped Danielle), portrayed as a 'suffer* girl, to transcend into a more perfect in God's creation being' by a religious obsessive nut job! (Chris Scheicher as 'Virgil': See quotes sidebar wherein he espouses director / writer (auteur? He edited and produced it, too) Samuel M. JOHNSON's (NOT movie star Jackson!!) excuses cum reasons of its dichotomy all out as.) *i.e presumably / possibly only as edicted / inspired by as St. Paul assessed to reach religious joy - yet which can only / has to be, come by / through - you guessed it - suffering …! Which is uplifting, surely?By which, without wanting to give away too much of the development of this what at first would seem another of those tawdry women in peril stalked and torture porn offerings, and despite its (helpful?!) salacious come on subtitle: 'Whipped, chained and tortured by a psychopath' (! so, not really a 'comedy'!), do stick with it for, for you anti torture porn, pro feminists, may be surprised at the end (á la - plot spoiler alert here=read no further: 'Spit on your grave'*, 'Hostel 2 / sequel', 'Storm Warning', 'Return to Sender' etc. male oppressor come-uppance revenge genre …) And which is particularly so to possibly the true underlying critique intended by this 'the people' (=crowd funded) effort, through the initial introduced thoroughly reprehensible - (inferred) Father (?) - figure (although credited only as 'bastard' - David Alan Graf) - despatched, um 'messily' in a sorta serves him right (well, 'bastard' like, I guess!) hoisted by own petard porn surfing, ah, 'activity'! Which, if not that is the (black humour) - 'comedy'?, then is it also a subtle turnaround on all us audience 'voyeurs', too, having been so enticed to view this? (That salacious 'Whipped, chained and tortured …." COME on, y'know, huh … ?) Hmm Plus, ponder that with also a suitably menacing drab, drone-like atmospheric soundtracking throughout from '2Sheep Audio' (as credited in the print), too, this is surely a cult curio in the making. * Although actually, as rather like another in the revenge genre, W. Craven's 'Last House on the Left' was supposedly (notoriously!), incongruously inspired by Bergmann's 'Virgin Spring', it amused me that this has a similar inspirational credit "Inspired by Dante's inferno": as such, miss at your own, er, purgatory!
mike junt I will admit the fake punches, pretty fake. Really fake, But come on, they made this on a KICKSTARTER! The crazy guy was obviously crazy, but the plot works itself out and it all ties back into the beginning. I noted that this movie did not contain any FULL nude scenes, which felt odd because I don't think a movie about a psychopath torturing someone necessarily needs to be kept to a PG-13 rating. The concept of the torture is very interesting because it portrays a real psychopathic mindset, and does not involve any sexual torture or rape, as most opposite gender torture movies probably would. There are some slightly gruesome moments, but hey, its a horror film. Overall I really liked this, it had me hooked after the first 20 minutes, and considering that it was made with the support of a kick-starter, I think it was pretty awesome. I always like revenge horror films.
Fahad Mehar Are you f***g Kidding me ? You know very well what you making ? Then why you make this kind of Garbage ? If you have extra money please save it but don't make garbage for us to waste our time and yours. Poor acting and Poor script and poor sound. Viewers please don't waste your time on this garbage seriously. Directors are requested that please stop making this kind of movies. I have seen making low budget movies are awesome one.... You judge in first 5 or 10 minutes that what will be the movie and the story. I usually never watch movies by forwarding but this i was force to do that. 1 hour 22 minutes movie I watch in 22 minutes.
shydog1971 OK.. Only 2 people in house (the girl and the guy) but at 27:17 - 27:19 there is another pair of feet in the frames where he is putting a bag over her head.. The acting is terrible, the head in the fridge, how original is that? She just meets the guy and is eating dinner and staying over at his place. Get real we do have a brain in our heads. This is just one of the worst movies I have viewed in a long time. Acting, what acting, did they have a script or make things up as they went along. Then the black and white bathroom scene, was this a security cam he had set up or ? I think this film was shot with a 8mm camcorder and a very low budget. Don't waste your time.
