Plots(1)
Craig (Jesse Metcalfe, Desperate Housewives) and Elise (Erika Christensen, Swimfan, Flightplan) had all the ingredients for an ideal life: a happy marriage, successful careers, and a wonderful five-year-old son named Ben. Until, one summer day, their perfect world is shattered as Craig witnesses Ben's kidnapping from their front yard. Their hope soon turns to despair when Ben is found dead. Guilt ridden beyond words, Elisa is unable to forgive Craig and leaves him. Stunned and outraged by the court's decision to plea bargain a reduced sentence, Craig and Elise decide to seek their own retribution and justice. They abduct the convicted murderer and subject him to the same monstrous acts he perpetrated against their son. But the reality of torturing another human being and taking justice into your own hands has its own price to pay. A horrifying decent into the depths of hatred, The Tortured shows how even the seemingly gentlest of people can turn violent when pushed too far. (official distributor synopsis)
