Here's a slasher flick for lesbians — that is, if you can
take its high quotient of gore and violence. (Don't say we didn't
warn you?


Cute-as-a-button Cecile De France plays a sexy dyke who goes to
stay at the farmhouse of her best girlfriend (Maiwenn Le Besco).
Maiwenn is straight, but Cecile has a crush on her anyway. On the
night that they arrive at the farmhouse, a lunatic killer comes
a-knocking. Maiwenn is kidnapped, and it is up to Cecile to save
her.


Now, as much as we love horror movies and slasher flicks, this
one really made our stomachs turn. Director Alexandre Aja seems
to know no bounds when it comes to depicting the gruesome acts of
the psycho-killer. His specialty — the killer's as well as
the director's — seems to be slashing the throat or cutting
the entire head of the victim, so that blood can gush out like water
from a broken fire-hydrant.


Yuck... Don't eat before you watch this.
