Let's start with 'Trust'. It's about a naive and according to me, PLAIN STUPID 14-year old girl who falls in love with a dodgy webcamless stranger online, meets him and gets raped. Now, before you think, that's pretty normal nowadays, that ain't the full story. This girl, Annie, is so damn stupid, after he changes his age 3 THREE TIMES from 16 to 20 to 25 she STILL meets him. When she gets greeted by a middle-aged man who tells her creepy things about how they're soulmates in the safe place of a mall she STILL doesn't run away. After getting gifted underwear and asked to model them she STILL doesn't just GTFO. And yeah, she gets raped(according to her it's consensual, I call BS), shes fine with it, her parents go mental and her dad even kills a guy. She loves the pedo until she realises that he's ACTUALLY a pedo and pedos on other people too. Not a cool story at all.

I think things worked out too good for this girl since he's hot and his DP actually understated his hotness. The ending of this (SPOILERS) also consisted of the girl and her parent hugging, then the audience is left to wonder, DAFUQ DID I JUST WATCH since you're not sure if it's supposed to be a cliffhanger or that the director/writer got too lazy to finish it off. Like even 'Trust' had a better ending when the ending credits show the identity of the pedo rapist.
So in conclusion, people aren't really interpreting this "I meet stranger shit happens" idea very well. They often stray away from the stranger part and focus on how families are affected and fanservice. Someone come along and do a better job pls. 1/10 will not date.
