I really liked this film. But, I wasn't sure where all of it was heading. It seemed like it was using the violence just to be violent. The plot was a little thin IMO, but it was done very well. I think that Inside was much better than this one. I would like to see more from the people that made this film because I see talent all over the place!

It IS great, but it did'nt beat Haute Tension.

Great film. The amount of realism is incredible, and the performance form Karina Testa is nothing short of breathtaking. This is easily my favorite film, and I hope to see more like it from Xavier Gens, as well as more roles from Karina Testa, in the future. Absolutely incredible.

It seems like this is one of those movies that people either love or hate. Here's my two cents... I thought it was pretty good. True, it did seem like it borrowed a lot of ideas and characters from other horror movies, but I think the fact that it was a foreign movie helped me overlook it. Bottom line is that it's a violent adrenalin rush with solid acting.


Posted By: lance666 at 4:16pm, June 6, 2008

this movie sucked. which movie was it tryn to be? it borrowed every tired horror cliche imaginable. the only reason i didnt return it is the gore. inside was better.


Posted By: gilcrest at 1:39pm, June 6, 2008

Damn this movie made me mad... I trekked all the way out to the Mann's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, the tourist capital of LA, with huge expectations after reading everyone's reviews and having just watched Inside - an amazing French horror film.... What did I get? The French version of Texas Chainsaw Massacre... Why did anyone think this was original? The crazy family that kills together? What a fucking hunk of shit! The gore was decent (the tablesaw scene was unbelievable), but this storyline SUCKED. The whole intro bank robbery was completely superfluous. The boyfriend dude, who seemed like he could be somewhat of a hero, was killed in like 2 seconds in a completely anti-climactic way? "Haute Tension" was OK - the beginning was amazing, but the end was completely unoriginal.... "Inside" spun my head around and was completely original.... This movie was a complete and utter hunk of shit. I'm just not convinced that the French are the next big thing for horror. BD - I trust your 5 star ratings and go out of my way to see them... this was not, by any account, a 5 star movie.


Posted By: hippyhalo22 at 1:16pm, June 2, 2008

I felt that this movie was alright. I was waiting in anticipation for months for it because I thought it was going to be gory, twisted, and amazing...I was slightly let down. There is some decent gore, sure...but not as much as I was hoping for. The story turned out to be a little blah...the basics of the story are pretty trite, plus it all felt very underdeveloped. The dialogue isn't very strong and there isn't much character development occurring. The acting is decent, but not mind-blowing. Overall, it was a fairly decent horror film but nothing to gush over (just like Inside, which I felt was WAAAAAAAYYYY too hyped up and a huge letdown).


Posted By: walrus60 at 12:39am, June 2, 2008

Yea, this movie was absolutely incredible. It definitely exceeded my expectations on every level. Fantastic direction, cinematography, story, acting, and special effects. Just watch it, you'll see.


Posted By: CyaNidexLandMine at 7:18pm, May 27, 2008

WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT ?! A GREAT STORY.. DRAMA.. INTENSE MUSIC.. NAZIS.. BLOOD AND GUTS(AND WHEN I SAY THAT I MEAN A LOT OF FUCKIN BLOOD AND GUTS).. AND GUNS!
I THINK THIS IS AN AMAZING MOVIE, ONE OF THE MOST MEMORABLE SINCE HAUTE TENSION OR INSIDE.
THESE FRENCH D00DZ KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE FOREIGN FILM SO FAR, PEOPLE ARE TRYIN TO COMPARE IT TO HAUTE TENSION AND WHATNOT, BUT THEY ARE BOTH TOTALLY DIFFERENT TYPES OF HORROR AND BOTH ARE SO GREAT IN DIFFERENT WAYS, BUT I'D CHOOSE THIS OVER HAUTE TENSION.



Posted By: fenderxx at 5:55pm, May 17, 2008

WOW! is all i have to say. Blood. Guts. drama. amazing. I thought the movie would have been a little more gruesome because of the exploited fact it was only in the movies for four days, But overall it had some worthy gore. I liked and disliked the fact that it took a lot of things from other horror movies. This move did stand out from all of the other hostels and torture films purely because of the acting. The acting was so incredibly believable i forgot it wasn't even in english.
Definitely worth seeing

V-I-S-C-E-R-A-L!!! I have a warm spot for any movie where fascists get their due treatment. While I feel the narrative is a bit loose; the action, violence, and gore are T-I-G-H-T. The core of Frontiere(s) is an anti-fascist parable for a world where violent, reactionary politics seem to pass, even among the mainstream, as a positive solution to complex global problems. Progressives should love this film, but the more conservative horror hound will likely only see its flaws. C'est la vie, et nous ne nous reposerons pas jusqu'à ce que le dernier nazi meurt.


Posted By: goweftus at 10:48pm, May 15, 2008

This is a well-made film suffering from a mediocre script and an editor who didn't know what to leave out. It's way too long, and keeps beating the same dead horror horses to death over and over. There are some great scenes and characters --Father is superb, definitely the best thing about the film. But too much is predictable and overdone. The excessive length detracts from the efforts at building a good atmosphere of terror. For those who never tire of seeing the same gore cliches repeated verbatim, it's probably a lot of fun. But to compare it to Haut Tension is, in my opinion, completely out of order. It's mediocre in comparison with Haut Tension, which I think was one of the best films in the genre in years. Worth a watch, but not a must-see unless you're a dedicated gorehead.


Posted By: apolonio at 12:41am, May 15, 2008

i hated this movie! this film did not cover my expectations one bit. in my opinion this movie carries a story that becomes less that important passing the first part of the movie, the violence is lame and predictible, i expected a lot more from the trailer and posters... i can go on and on. it sucks!!!!


Posted By: miser42 at 11:34pm, May 14, 2008

Who knew such extreme pain and gore could be so artistic and beautiful?

Going into this, I already had word from Mr Disgusting (Thanks to a brief conversation at the March Horrorhound) that it was a very good film. Little did I know HOW good it was going to be. The acting was top notch and the story was interesting and layered using elements from so many films before. It has an homage kind of feel. Let that be know before going into this. There are various moments you know exactly where the inspiration comes from.

Without going into anymore detail (that being the sites reviewers job) the movie is well worth checking out and sits with my top films of the year.




Posted By: bangor09 at 2:56pm, May 14, 2008

The theme has been done with a lot of variables, a group of misfits get stranded and seek a place to stay, and staying in that place turns to be the worst idea ever….But also the goriest and coolest movies…

There may be Spoilers; You Have been warned!!!


From Dusk Till Dawn, Calvaire, Texas Chain Massacre, House OF 1000 Corpses. you name it, we pretty much have learn the golden rule; If the place it’s good for hiding, it could be that Something it’s already hiding there!!!

In Frontiere (s) the acting it’s very good, the gore it’s more than abundant and the setting it’s more close to home than most of us are willing to admit… the Freak family here has very likeable points on their character, in a ironic way, the family it’s remnants of a Nazi group, but they are more likeable than the white trash family Rob Zombie keep presenting us in his films, and the ones in the Texas Chain Massacre films, I actually could picture a lot of American actors for the parts in the most assure Dreaded REMAKE.

In the third act there’s a lot of time when you would think that you’re watching the last scene, just to realize the film keeps going, (about three times), In this film the culture it’s not a factor, like in Asian films, so you can easily relate to the whole setting.

Be sure you check this film, but be aware than although the pacing is very good and steady, it might be somehow slow for those are used to the pacing in “Saw”, in any case this film it’s a great new breath for an saturated remake market…

Fucked up movie. One of the best foreign horror films I have ever seen. It was so messed up and really gory. I really dont like subtitles at all but it didnt ruin the movie at all. If you like fucked up movies than check this one out.


Posted By: AJS EVERYTHING SHOP at 11:57am, May 11, 2008

EXCELLENT MOVIE! GREAT ADDITION TO THE AFTER DARK HORRORFEST COLLECTION!!!
