High Tension is a sick and twisted movie, but at the same time its just simple amazing. It makes you think throughout the whole movie, but at the end it throws you for a huge twist. The movie starts out in the back country of France. Marie (the main character) is going out to her friends Alexia’s, new house in the middle of nowhere. While driving to Alexia’s house Marie is in the back seat sleeping, and we see a flash forward of her badly injured, walking in the woods, but we have no idea what that’s about yet. When they get to Alexia’s house its late, so everyone says there hellos and goes straight to bed. Right before Marie falls asleep she hears noises of Alexia’s family screaming, and when she goes and looks she sees an old man leaving Alexia’s parents room with blood all over him. She has not the slightest idea what to do.
After he’s finish killing the whole family, everyone besides Alexia, he takes her captive in the back of his truck, and some how Marie gets her way in the truck. The rest of the movie is just the old man driving down the high way, then stopping at a gas station where Marie tries to have someone call the cops, but it doesn’t work then the man and the truck get away from her so she steels the gas station tenets car, who was just killed by the old man. They end up in the woods, and the old man and Marie start to fight, and she finally kills him, but that’s not the end at all. There is a huge twist, which I’m not going to ruin because it’s the whole movie.
The movie has a lot of different angle shots, mostly in the house while he’s killing the family. But the director doesn’t use any long shots or extreme close-ups the whole film. The review written by Luke Thompson of Phoenix times, says this is a horrible movie and that the ending was the worst way of ending it. I totally disagree, and it almost bothers me that he said that. There’s is no other movie I can think of that has a ending like this, and it’s the type of movie that you can’t turn off, and keeps you on the edge of your seat. If you like horror, gore, and twist endings I highly recommend this movie, because you will get nothing less than all that.
