Synopsis

A young social outcast goes to great measures to find the perfect friend in this debut horror feature from director Lucky McKee. Set apart from her peers as a child due to her lazy eye, May’s only friend and confidant was a delicate doll encased in glass. Though as a young adult May has learned to control her lazy eye with glasses and contacts, her introverted tendencies always seem to hinder her search for the perfect friend. Walking down the street one day, May happens across a young man tenderly caressing the damage of a wrecked car and falls in love with his seemingly perfect hands. As May and Adam (Jeremy Sisto) begin to spend more time together, the quirky couple seem to have much in common, and May believes that she might have finally happened across the perfect boy. Her deep-rooted psychological problems slowly surface, however, and Adam is gradually driven away, leaving the vulnerable May in the company of amorous co-worker Polly (Anna Faris). It soon becomes obvious to May that, though various acquaintances seem to have perfect traits, they never add up to a perfect whole — leading the creative and demented young girl to her own unique method of creating the perfect friend. —allmovie guide

The overly-mannered acting took a little getting used to, but the story sucks you in. Like all the best horror movies, this is about looking for something lacking and finding it despite the rules and restrictions of one's world. The loneliness lingers on and on long after May's finally got the friend she'd wished her whole life and the last of the credits have rolled...

A quirky, violent portrait of loneliness with a FRANKENSTEIN twist. Angela Bettis is a fantastic actress, it's a shame we don't see her in more movies.
