High Tension
Directed by Alexandre Aja
Hoping to prepare for their college exams in peace and quiet, best friends Marie and Alexia decide to spend a weekend in the country at Alexia's parents' secluded farmhouse. Bun in the dead of the night, a stranger knocks on the front door. And with the first swing of his knife, the girls' idyllic weekend turns into and endless night of horror... This vicious, divisive neo-slasher introduced audiences to Alexandre Aja and helped usher in a highly praised new wave of French terror that brought us the likes of INSIDE and MARTYRS in the mid-2000s.
Two best friends' quiet weekend turns into an endless night of horror in this French horror breakthrough.
Cast: Cecile De France, Maiwenn Le Besco, Philippe Nahon, Franck Khalfoun

Fantastic movie!
tres bien!
Very good and appreciated
I really enjoyed the pace of the movie as it didn’t let up, what I didn’t enjoy was having to switch to another streaming service to watch the original version with no dubbing 😡
yo how did this movie upset so many people when it came out, i mean it's decent enough but the twist is pretty silly. good way to kill an evening though
