The Signal was great!
I loved Inside, didn't like High Tension much at all (had such potential, but I hated the ending, it just ruined it for me).
I loved Them, so I definitely second that recommendation.

It's almost freakly how like-minded we are... The two characters in Eden Lake PISSED ME OFF.

I'm sorry, but regardless how old a group of people (or children are), if they're fucking with me on my vacation, I WILL JUST LEAVE. After the tires were popped, I would have been like. Uhm, yeah, let's get the hell out of here. Not worth it. And going in their home to begin with was just DUMB (to the point where I wouldn't have felt bad if the guy got axed right then and there) - It really only served as a device so that we'd "recognize" the house later on... Which was what made the ending so damn predictable. Overall a painful movie to watch.

You are practically the ONLY ONE (besides me and my boyfriend) who feels that way about High Tension. I think it's INCREDIBLY overrated. The ending was absolutely awful. Considering how well-done the movie was, I don't think that it needed a "twist." I would have been satisfied with a straight up sadistic slasher film. Honestly.
BTW - Good to see you back. *hugs*
