So it's an indie film and that excuses a lot of smaller gripes, but the acting is pretty bad. Specifically the character of Beth, who is played out as a one-dimensional evil character for the purposes of the movie.
The movie doesn't shy away from nudity and the odd part is that for a movie that's about how people try to sexualize children, the movie itself sexualizes the actor playing the young girl - with unnecessary nudity and scenes meant to appeal to perverts.
Kind of gross the director would sink to completely tasteless shots of the girl being raped (which were also comically bad in acting - guys licking their lips and other silliness).
The one upside is that the movie ends realistically and wasn't shy in showing that these stories seldom have a happy ending.
