'Daddy's Little Girl' (2012)

France, Japan, Korea: these have always been the countries that have smothered the market on brutality in revenge films. Movies such as Martyrs and I Saw the Devil are remembered as much for their original stories as they are for their terrifying scenes of torture and pain. But from this point on, never let it be said that Australia isn’t making its own valiant effort at running with the pack. Because I honestly don’t think I’ve ever had to look away from a movie as often as I did from Chris Sun’s Daddy’s Little Girl.
