THE LOVED ONES (2009) is a darkly twisted Australian horror tale of high school rejection turned deadly obsession. After declining a classmate’s prom invitation, Brent (Xavier Samuel) becomes the target of Lola (Robin McLeavy) and her deranged father. Abducted and subjected to a sadistic homemade prom, Brent must summon every ounce of strength to survive. Blending gore, tension, and jet-black humor, this cult favorite explores the lengths to which pain and longing can drive human behavior.
