Martyrs

Heard about this puppy well over a year ago and its finally being released on DVD today. Like most foreign movies, we have to wait a while before they manage to show up stateside. So anyways, Martyrs is apparently another example of how France is putting us to shame in the horror genre. A couple years ago it was j-horror that was all the rage, but it looks like they have passed the torch on to the French. À l'intérieur, Frontière(s), Haute tension, and now Martyrs. Nicely done gentleman.

A young woman's quest for revenge against the people who kidnapped and tormented her as a child leads her and a friend, who is also a victim of child abuse, on a terrifying journey into a living hell of depravity.

The synopsis for the movie doesn't give you much to work with, but I guess thats the beauty of the film. The real twists are saved for actual viewing.
