Another edition to the 'torture porn' genre from the producers of the 'Saw' film series. Craig (Jesse Metcalfe) and Elise Landry (Erika Christensen) are content with family life but their world is turned upside down when their young son is kidnapped and brutally murdered. After the court trial, the killer, Kozlowski (Bill Moseley), is set to serve a prison sentence, but Craig and Elise do not think the punishment is severe enough. They decide to seek revenge in their own way, capturing and torturing Kozlowski in the same manner he did their son, but their harsh vengeance won't be without consequences.
Craig (Jesse Metcalfe, Desperate Housewives) and Elise (Erika Christensen) had all the ingredients for an ideal life: a great marriage, a wonderful five-year-old son named Ben, a charming home and a bright future. But all that is destroyed when Ben is suddenly abducted and later found dead.
Their feelings of guilt tear the couple apart until months later the abductor is apprehended but released on a plea bargain. Outraged, Craig and Elise reunite in their anger and decide to enact their own justice on the murderer of their child.
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.
