Much like "Inside" and "Haute Tension", this movie is almost too much to watch. Taking liberally from "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" and then throwing in a healthy dose of "Ilsa: She-Wolf Of The SS"; mainly because, hell, if you are going the distance, throw some Nazis in too. I think the inclusion of the Nazis was a bit of a statement from the director in relation to current French politics, which take up the credit sequence.

Every death in this movie is two steps over the top, which, if you are a gore hound, will be a treat. Unlike "Hostel", where the torture felt controlled, this is completely out of control with bolt cutters, enough guns to make Rambo blush with envy, knives, pigs--this movie out-Hostels "Hostel", which really isn't difficult. All you need is one character we care about and voila, you have a better movie.

I can really see where people won't like this, a bit heavy on the "Texas Chain Saw Massacre", but pound for pound this rivals any film for the sheer about of blood, guts, and creatively brutal deaths.
