Ratings and reviews

It is brutal at times, but not as distasteful as you might expect - it's an art film really. Certainly worth a look for any horror fan.

I was in shock for 3 days and stunned for 2 weeks after seeing this movie. The French do the best Horror movies in the world and I've seen them all from America and Japan. See also the movie "Inside" also a great movie.

okay , we all saw the Saw Series, but this one won't cover the series,but it's good! well created, coz ya think it's all over, but no, only halfway through and there's MORE! , and certainy well worth the watch if your into horror, but not for me personally!.....i't's a pretty good flick :), cheers!
