High Tension 2005-10-15 23:39:48 Reply

Any one seen this movie? It was out in theaters in the US last year i think, but quietly came and left, the previews didnt do it justice. It came out on DVD about a week ago i think and i just bought it yesterday.

My review of "High Tension";
Excellent horror movie until the end, where i wont give anything away, but its extremly obvious and cliche. Up until the last ten minutes this movie is just brutaly amazing. Good acting, gore galore, and like the title implies, lots and lots of tension. The whole damn movie has that heart beating excitement that most horror movies only have in one or two scenes. I highly recommend this one.

Scince I only have two thumbs yes, otherwise i would give it more.

Like I said, its a great tense movie, that just flops at the end becuase of its lame attempt at a twist.

I've been waiting for months to see that. Might be good for Halloween if my friends and I can get a hold of our other choices.

Yeah, I have a new found respect for frenchies after watching that movie. I think it would have been even more frightening if the hillbilly was real. That fight club ripoff plot has been done waay too many times.

I really liked the move she pulled on the dad. Classic.

Ichi is good gory fun
Salo is seriously deranged, like seriously deranged.
Canibal Holocaust is awsome, i would also recommend cannibal ferox while you're at it
