France is probably the leader today for making "disturbing, graphic" horror films recent ones (since 2000) include "High Tension", "Martyrs" and "Inside".
Also many great older horror flicks have come out of France as well "Les Diaboliques", "Eyes Without A Face", "Daughters Of Darkness", "Possession" and "Baby Blood" to name a few.

Yes, the French make great shock horror films. There's also "Irreversible" and "Inside My Skin". Don't know if you have seen them, but there are also two French-Danish films, "The Strange Color of Your Body's Tears" and "Amer", both excellent.
Love "Martyrs", can't believe they allowed a remake to be produced. I haven't seen the remake, by choice, looks like garbage. That's a film that shouldn't be remade, the original is perfect. Haven't seen "High Tension" but I'm thinking about giving it a go now.
One last suggestion since you enjoy horror and terror films, if you haven't seen it, it's not French, it's Dutch, but man, what a superb little film, "Borgman".

I agree though I find most foreign horror films to be far superior to US ones. Besides Martyrs and Inside, another French horror film I enjoyed was Frontiers. I liked it better than High Tension.

If you like our movies and gore, try Claire Denis' Trouble Every Day. You won't regret it.
