Darcy (Tiffany Heath) is plagued by nightmares, obsessive sleepwalking, and also self-destructive episodes. Her psychiatrist Ryan (Denton Blane Everett) has taken a special interest in her case, and soon figures just drugging her into a vegetative state won't do the trick. And Ryan is still young and ambitious enough to think he can cure everything if only he really wants to - not seeing his own addiction of prescription pills and alcohol even ...

Darcy's condition, as much Ryan seems to have figured out, has to do something with her mother seriously abusing her - so when he hears Darcy's parents' house is abandoned, he decides to take a leave from his job, and pretty much kidnaps Darcy from the clinic for some sort of exposure therapy - which she lets him despite her better judgment because she has fallen in love with him.

At the house though, nothing changes for the better, especially when they find a feral young boy, Sam (Jake Austin) who's mute (but able to write) and thinks he's the family dog. He shows the same signs of abuse that Darcy does, and thus Ryan thinks he's Darcy's brother. He doesn't call the authorities though, not only because legally he has kidnapped Darcy (even if with her consensus), but also because he still thinks he and he alone can make things better - and thus he chooses to overlook even blatantly obvious signs that things aren't going according to plan (like Darcy cutting herself and too fresh wounds all over Sam's body), and it takes him quite a bit to find out that Darcy is not quite the innocent victim he has made her out to be but a dangerous schizophreniac - and by then it might already be too late ...

 

Cut Her Out is a very un-formulaic piece of horror cinema, one that keeps one guessing not only till the end but until long after, but without ever dropping its narrative coherence, or just becoming stupid for the sake of remaining mysterious. Likewise, the direction finds just the right balance between gross-out imagery and subtlety to ... well, keep the viewer off balance - and make the most of the very limited locations. Now add to that a trio of very gifted performers, and you've got yourself a pretty good movie!
