Hard Candy
This is actually a couple years old, but it kept coming up on my netflix suggestions so I finally decided to watch the trailer. I couldn't help it and I went searching for the spoiler. I just kicked this up to the top of my netflix queue.

Disturbing but a really good movie, puts a dark twist on the whole stalker-predator scenario.

Solid 5 out of 5, mostly because Ellen Page is the shit. She is an incredible actress who can go from shy, 14 year old girl to fucking sociopath in 2 seconds flat.
Starts off with a 20 something guy talking to a 14 year old girl online. They meet. She suggests they go back to his house to hear an mp3, he feigns shock - it is obviously inappropriate for him to take a young girl back to his place. They go anyway. He offers her water, she suggests screwdrivers. He doesn't stop her. They go into his bedroom and look at the pictures he's taken of young models (he's a professional photographer) and they continue drinking. She suggests he take her picture, he says fine. Eventually he passes out.
That's when the mind fuck starts.
They are both extremely talented actors dealing with an awkward subject - child molestation and homicidal vengeance. You find out things about the guy, but never find out anything about the girl - only what she lets him know, which isn't the truth anyway. Outstanding script, outstanding acting, and definitely a nice twisty kind of ending.
