Martyrs Just watched this French film this afternoon, probably some of the most disturbing cinema I've ever seen. Absolutley awful, 100% uncomfortable and daunting 100% of the time. Quality. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNM9kKo4JNU"]YouTube- Martyrs trailer[/ame]
Watched this about 8 months ago... and was pretty disturbed by it.. No subs so I had no idea what was going on... Everyone raves on about it... empire gave it 5 out of 5 and its been given a few awards... but I just dont like it. If you like gore... you'll need a tissue or 2 tho..
I'd imagine that the explaination the subs would provide would make you enjoy the film a lot more if you were to get a grip and watch it with them included, outrageous comment.
i know, was going to say. i wish i'd watched the subbed version, the american voice overs were pathetic. excellent film like - brilliant albiet disturbing story too.
Aye cheers for bringing this film to my attention I just had a awful nights sleep disturbing as fuck. Class film though.
Granted it had no subs but whats outrageous about having a, somewhat one-sided, opinion? The graphic nature of the film disturbed me.. As for the tissue comment... people who go see "gore" films like Hostel and Saw will explode in their pants.. I think thats a fair comment given the content of the film. I'll watch again with subs... I fucking hope I don't come crawling back here...
I thought they were both shit Loved martyrs though, actually genuinely disturbing and not hammed up hollywood shite The french and the japanese seem to make miles better horror films than anyone else
well for a start you were only getting one side of the film, the visual part. if you could understand the dialog you'd understand how good it actually was
