Laurie Holden really brought Cybil to life.

Cybil has a lot of heart in this movie; her attempts to reunite Rose (Radha Mitchell) with her stepdaughter Sharon (Jodelle Ferland) were written in a more personal context than the game version of Cybil’s attempts to reunite Harry with his stepdaughter, Cheryl. In this movie, it is implied that Cybil has a deep connection with her mother (motherhood is a big theme of the movie, to an extent that almost makes you wonder if the people behind it have daddy issues).

In terms of replicating Cybil’s look from the game, an impeccable job was done.

Double Dragon

I don’t remember this flick very well besides the fact that Abobo looks terrifying in it.

There was also a scene where he was tortured by being force-fed baby food. Honest to God.
