Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSince the real sisters and their friends are protected by Canadian law and their information is sealed, there was no way of knowing who they were as people. Director Stan Brooks then made everyone in the young cast go home and write an essay about their character - what their favorite music was, their favorite food, and so on. Zoe Belkin wrote that Ashley is anorexic, doesn't eat and has body issues. If you watch the movie there's a cafeteria scene were she chooses Jell-O and the entire meal cuts out but she never eats any.
- GoofsDuring the main titles, while pulling the U-Haul trailer, the family passes the Atlas Pawn Shop twice, going in different directions.
- Quotes
Beth Anderson: We lied about killing our mom. We like to mess with people a lot.
Detective Santiago Gates: That's a pretty sick thing to be telling people.
Beth Anderson: Well, what can I say? We're pretty messed up. But there is a big difference between being a pathological liar, and a murder.

Featured review
This is based on a true story and on real life people. That might raise some red flags with some. But if you don't mind that, there is quite the drama unfolding. Not easy to watch at all, but really good performances. Also not really characters in this one that you should be able to identify with much (at least not if you are stable generally speaking).
Having said, there are some horrific things happening (if you've read what it's about you already know what I'm hinting at, if not I won't tell/spoil) ... so not for the faint hearted or easily offended. But life can be hard and we are not all the same. While I would not condone many of the things happening, the structure of the movie makes it easy to understand how everything build up ...
