The Amazon Prime movie focuses on the story of victim, Michelle Knight, who was the first person to be kidnapped and held captive by Castro at his home in Cleveland, Ohio.
Knight went missing in August 2002 at the age of 21 and was last seen after leaving a relative's house.
Meanwhile, the second victim, Amanda Berry - aged just 17 when she was abducted - was the second person to be taken by Castro and went on to give birth to his child, while being held in his property for years.
Gina DeJesus, meanwhile, was just 14 when she was abducted.
All three women survived the horrific ordeal, in which they were held captive for around a decade.
Their freedom came when Berry managed to escape, alerting authorities who later discovered Knight and DeJesus.
After being caught, Castro was convicted of kidnapping and raping the women and was sentenced to life in prison. He later committed suicide while in jail, around a month after he was convicted.
The movie, Cleveland Abduction, focuses on Knight's story and how she was freed after Berry managed to escape.
After watching the film, people were left horrified at the events that took place, with many calling it one of the 'most disturbing' movies they had seen.
One wrote: "Cleveland Abduction on Netflix is unbelievably disturbing."
While another said: "Just finished watching Cleveland Abduction & it brought me to tears."
And a third added: "Cleveland Abduction is one of the most disturbing things I’ve ever watched."
Meanwhile a fourth commented: “Watching Cleveland Abduction and I’m currently deeply disturbed.”
In LADbible's Netflix Bangers Facebook group, one person wrote: “I was hooked watching this, I don't know if it's new or not but omg. Crazy to think that things like this actually happened. I felt sick and sad... so many emotions.”
A synopsis from Netflix explains: “Abducted and imprisoned, Michelle Knight finds the will to survive amid the most horrific and heartbreaking of circumstances in this true-crime drama.”
Although the movie is no longer on Netflix in the UK, you can watch Cleveland Abduction on Amazon Prime Video now with a free one-month subscription.
