"Some Spoilers Will Follow* Show
The real story, upon which the movie is based, is actually so much worse. I'm deducting one star just because I really wish they hadn't left out important details of the real story. For example, "Sarah", played expertly by Stefanie Scott, actually had even more children with her father (SEVEN in total), and more than one died. And Sarah wasn't rescued by telling a nurse in the hospital "I need help". The Austrian girl, Elisabeth, on whom "Sarah" is based, actually was forced BACK to the basement dungeon after this first appearance in the hospital. It was a much more drawn-out rescue, with, thankfully, quite a few hospital workers becoming suspicious and acting on it. Psychological torture was well illustrated in Girl in the Basement. For some reason, many abusive males like to say to their victims, "Do you UNDERSTAND?", as Sarah's rapist father does here repeatedly. They want to confuse their victims into thinking this is NOT coercive abuse but somehow a deficit in the victim's cognitive abilities. And, in reality, Elisabeth's mother was much more passive than is portrayed here, and it is an important digression. (Also, the entire incident actually happened in Austria, so we don't know what kind of country-specific gender roles may be playing out there). The movie makes it seem like her mother was much more of an advocate for her than she actually was. Typically, passivity in mothers IS what is seen in these situations, because that passivity ENABLES the preliminary abuse. Elisabeth was actually sexually assaulted by her father when she was just 11 years old, not 18 as is in this movie. And there would have been signs of that there were also ignored by her mother. I WISH that this were a world where uttering "I Need Help" to a professional would suddenly activate a domino effect of clear-cut assistance. But, in today's world, rampant with corruption and incompetence, that is sadly not the case. Sara, a vibrant teen girl who was looking forward to her 18th birthday so she could move away from her controlling father Don. But before she could ever blow out the candles, her world became extremely dark after Don imprisons her in the basement of their home. While Don tries to convince wife Irene that Sara ran away, he would secretly visit her in the basement to torture and rape her while Irene and her sister Amy continued living upstairs. As the years pass, Sara gives birth to several children, alone in the basement. Don eventually brings up their youngest son, leaving him on the doorstep for Irene to find with a note from Sara saying that was her son and she couldn't care for him, leaving Irene to finally accept Don'ts claims about Sara. After decades of captivity, Sara finally escapes, and her family learns the devastating truth about what had been going on for over 20 years right beneath their feet.
