What can we say about ''The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things''? Well, [[Series/TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody Cole and Dylan Sprouse]] play Jeremiah, a boy who is taken from his foster parents to live with his drug-addicted, prostitute mother Sarah and along the way has sex with Music/MarilynManson, gets raped and molested several times, and at one point becomes a [[ArsonMurderAndJayWalking Christian]]!. A very [[{{Squick}} squicky]] film to say the least.
