This review has spoilers in it. I gave this film 6/10 because the script was not bad but there were some scenes in the film that I hated. I think the character of Eve was somewhat likable but the director and screenwriter made her obnoxious in the scene where Eve tells her sister that "she has blood in her pants" which refers to Cisely getting her period. Another scene that made Eve annoying is when she curses at her mother. Granted, the mother in the film is annoying, I think Eve saying "God d**nit" was too awful for a child to be saying on film. What irked me about the film was the ending. The father was lied on by Cisely and she accused him (falsely) of trying to kiss her and make a sexual advance. The mother becomes upset and Eve talks to a "witch" who lives in the bayous to put a spell on her father and have him killed. In the end, Eve finds the truth when she reads a letter written by the father to the mother. What happens? Eve destroys the letter and her father never loses the false stigma of being incestuous. The writer should have given the father some sort of justice. Other aspects of the film that were good are the cinematography and the acting by the entire cast.
