She sets out to exact her revenge and in so doing discovers the reality of the world beyond and uncovers the reason for those past crimes, which becomes chillingly clear. Constantly switching direction as it heads into deeper, darker territory, Laugier's horror film combines intense terror tactics with a perverse poetry to create a truly unsettling experience. Love it or hate it, this French hardcore horror was one of the most controversial films in 2008 at London's FrightFest and the Toronto Film Festival. |
