Some Reviews
Rated this 5/10 due to large amounts of repeated and gratuitous violence.Is it worth torturing people to find out if there is life after death?This movie's answer seems to be "Keep doubting".Martyrs: Greek for Witness.Martyrs is written and directed by Pascal Laugier. It stars Morjana Alaoui and Mylene Jampanoi.The New French Extremity Movement had its bar raised considerably by Pascal Laugiers brutal but thought provoking horror. Its a film as uncompromising as it is confrontational, a picture guaranteed to get a response for better or worse. Once viewed it simply will not be forgotten, the images, the twisty narrative thematics and the bloodshed that flows consistently throughout the story, Laugier and his two brilliant lead actresses assault the senses, magnificently so.Story is unfurled as a three tiered structure, each one devastating, but its with the final third where the picture goes up through the stratosphere, stopping briefly at the caf weird just to further tickle our craniums. Some of the violence here is tough to watch, and its no surprise to find it was met with the inevitable charges of misogyny. Yet the culmination of it all puts some perspective on the violence witnessed, leading to a strangely profound and moving climax.The less you know about it going in for the first time the better. A strong stomach is required, as is an open mind, if you have these things then awaiting you is a visceral masterwork, one of the finest horror films to have ever come out of France. Yes, its that astonishing. 10/10
