i liked haute tension but i think to really appreciate it you've got to know a little about french culture and history - especially with the insane lesbian thing going on
i'm a bit surprised at how negative rod was - the 'unreliable narrator' trick is right out of gothic literature (and aren't you a poe fan??) there is no point trying to track back through and make sense of it - the whole film is her 'account' of the events - only at the end we find out she's a raving lunatic/psychopath. . . this is an old trick but used to good effect here
sure, i felt cheated at the end like a lot of people - but later i realized that it was just a bit of clever narrative trickery
