I just watched A L'Interieur
Hey guys was wondering if you could rec a new user some good modern horror? Yeah like thread title says I just watched A L'Interieur (Inside) and loved it. I think it's become abundantly clear that I'm now officially completely desensitized to graphic gore and violence on the big screen (and little screen respectively!)
The only other fairly modern film I've watched that was as graphic and bold as Inside was High Tension (Haute Tention - another French one) which I thought was awesome with a great twist at the end. Any similar films to those two that I should check out? |

Try Martyrs another french film - its pretty graphic and hard hitting.
I like Frontiere(s) alot too but it seemed to get a mixed reation from other Horror fans. Its kinda like a French version of an American Gothic film (think disfuctional, murdering Chainsaw type family). |

Ils (Them), another fantastic French horror films.
You might also like Eden Lake, though I wasn't a huge fan. |

Yeah I've seen Eden Lake once and I'm not sure if I want to watch it ever again because it didn't really do much for me the first time around. Even for a horror film I found it to be in bad taste. Thanks I'll check that other one out though.

You might want to try The Signal. The first part of it is absolutely raw and brutal, but then the rest of the movie blends absurd comedy into it. It's not a pure outright raw film in its entirety but the first part is brutal and it's an excellent film overall (just wanted to warn you about the comedy - it's fantastic, but I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for). |

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. Quote:

[SPOILERS] 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. [/SPOILERS] 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* |

I've made my extreme hatred of HIGH TENSION quite clear on ths site. The ending invalidates the film, nothing you saw happened or could have happened... it's a cheap cheat.
That said, I liked EDEN LAKE and I would not have taken any shit from a bunch of kids, I certainly wouldn't let them force me to move my vacation spot. I particularly liked the ending as it was the logical conclusion. Loved INSIDE, liked MARTYRS, didn't really care for FRONTEIR(S). I though ILS (THEY) was way overrated and boring. I'd say [REC] or might turn you on. MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN was overlooked by many and I really liked it - not genius, but quite fun. ANTICHRIST is going to upset a lot of you, but I'm quite pleased with it.

Midnight Meat Train was great can't wait for to see The Antichrist hoping to catch it on the big screen over the next week or so because it's playing at a film festival over here.
