Sacré bleu! This week our hosts venture to land of love, art, cigarettes, baguettes and... problematic plots twists! They watched the French film High Tension (Haute Tension), the 2003 debut of director Alexandre Aja. They discuss the early-2000's French Extreme film movement, of which High Tension helped define. The big questions with this film: can you still enjoy a film that botches the ending? Can you appreciate a film's visual style if you don't agree with the messaging?
Midnight Murderama
Welcome to the eighth circle of podcast hell. This is Midnight Murderama, the weekly podcast where I, Jamie, resident undead expert, and my two friends, JT and Russell, take a deep, lonely dive into the dark recesses of Hollywood.
Join us as we meticulously research, argue over, and finally rate and review the most horrific and terrifying films ever made — with the ultimate goal to hilariously examine exactly what it is about ourselves that makes us love the horror movies that define us, and to determine which of these legendaries films deserve a place in the pantheon of horror, blasted onto the twisted face of Mount Murdermore.
