Best movie ever!

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Pig Pen.... Oh man.. Where to start with this one. Well done overall. Entertaining, if that is one would consider entertaining. I'd prefer to say, captivating. Enter... a semi retarded kid, with a poor excuse for a human stain of a mother. Add in some other hopeful characters that at least exemplify some level of human decency. And mix in a sadistic boyfriend that is just what the mother asked for, and you get "Pig Pen". Not a feel good movie. There is an eventual revenge ending. Overall, I'd say realistic. My wife found it very disturbing. I found it hard to sympathize with the characters. As a movie buff whohas seen several thousand movies, I just have to call this one out for what it is, a disturbing, captivating, realistic portrayal of certain segments of society. For whatever low budget they had, they knocked it out of the park.

Just watched "Pig Pen", a 2015 very low budget indie film. This is without doubt, one of the most depressing movies I've seen. The story revolved around a young kid and his drug addicted Mom, and a sadistic boyfriend of the Mother. This is not for the faint of heart, what this kid goes through, is just flat out sick. But, the overall movie is done very very good, and even with the sickening subject matter, it succeeds by being very realistic and the graphic nature of the violence. Even though the whole movie is one big downer, it is done extremely well, and could very well be a sadistic crime on your late night news.

my vote is 6.5 good music and sound track, the other reviewer did a decent recapitulate of the movie. As I was watching, I was angry with what happen or may happen to the boy and mom.this is not an happy ending type of movie. very R for violence.

This movie is one dark and depressing story about a young boy and his mother and her violent boyfriend and what happens to them all over the course of a few days.A lot of the story is told in flashbacks; that illuminate the decisions that the boy and his mother make to try and survive in a cruel world.The story is actually very well acted and well told; but anyone looking for an uplifting story better look elsewhere.A solid 5 out of 10 for the quality of the story.
