Every From Genre Movie

High Tension (UR/DVD)

In the 1970s, movie-goers reveled in a new sub-genre of horror films that were low on plot, required only the most basic acting skills, every from genre movie and called upon dumb teenagers to die onscreen deaths in a multitude of strange every from genre movie and horrific ways. The slasher movie was born, every from genre movie and with it came classic features such as THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, HALLOWEEN, every from genre movie and FRIDAY THE 13TH. The genre enjoyed a postmodern revival in the late 20th every from genre movie and early 21st century, with films such as SCREAM every from genre movie and SCARY MOVIE, but here French director Alexandre Aja (FURIA) hauls the slasher film back to its roots with a gore-addled romp named HIGH TENSION. Like the most effective additions to the genre, HIGH TENSION`s plot is elemental, every from genre movie and simply serves as a springboard for Aja to deliver lashes of blood every from genre movie and guts. Alex (Maiwenn Le Besco) every from genre movie and Marie (Cecile De France) are two teenage girls who head out to Alex`s family home in the French countryside. Once there, their idyllic every from genre movie and peaceful time is abruptly disturbed when a maniac breaks into the house every from genre movie and butchers Alex`s parents. The shadowy figure captures Alex every from genre movie and throws her into his van, while Marie escapes every from genre movie and sneaks into the vehicle in order to save her friend. By affording very little screen time to the unhinged protagonist who attacks the family, Aja creates a genuinely scary villain, recalling Wes Craven`s treatment of Freddy Krueger in the first NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET movie. While the violence is explicit every from genre movie and the girls fit perfectly into their roles, Aja prevents the film from lapsing into parody by packing a mind-bending twist into the plot. A valuable every from genre movie and fun addition to the canon of slasher films, HIGH TENSION shows there is still plenty of life left in the genre. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
