    I don't take people recommending quarter-century old horror-flicks, seriously.

            La habitacion del nio? Really? I wouldn't recomend that, and I'm a big de la Iglesia fan.
            I haven't seen the vanishing, but it has been on my list since many many years, and I never got to watch it.

                  yeah martyrs is easily the best french horror film. inside could've been up there but unfortunately the writing gets extremely stupid around the middle of the film and brings down what is otherwise a great horror film.

                    My Opinion (at this moment) French: MARTYRS, INSIDE & HIGH TENSION
                    Brittish: MUM & DAD(maybe best EVER!!!), EDEN LAKE, CHERRY TREE LANE
                    USA: TRAIN, GRACE, THE TOOLBOX MURDERS, I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE 2010, TOOTH & NAIL, DEAD GIRL(not "The Dead Girl") and many many more.
                    Asian: Too much to mension but BATTLE ROYAL & DREAM HOUSE are in my top 5
                    Also one "What If" Movie that totally Grabbed me is FROZEN(simple but unforgetable).
                    About THE VANISHING i liked the remake better (Bullock & Sutherland) The Original is one of our best films in Dutch history "SPOORLOOS" (Vanished) it was low budget and not as creepy as the remake. Check it out, most people like what i bring to them.

                      You are probably a dimwit Brit. I will check out MUM & DAD, although my gut instinct and all indicators tell me not to tricked yet again into another low-budget Brit-crap production.
                      Your list gives you sufficient credibility though.
                      I know already I will regret this.

                        Mom & Dad is passable, good at some points. 5/10. (For comparison, if Mom&Dad were rated as 6, l'intrieur (2007) would rated a definitive 9)
                        Eden Lake is a good movie but an American/Brit production.
                        Cherry Tree Lane (2010): won't be tricked into watching this pile of youknowhwat
                        http://www.imdb.com/board/11468829/board/nest/165964265
                        First 10 minutes of a 78 minute long film is spent watching an impossible to like couple eating their dinner - I kid you not.

                          Wow. Your douchiness just oozes with each passing comment. WHO are you talking to?! Nobody is responding to you, except me, to tell you that you fail at the internet. And the fact that you don't take older movie recommendations seriously tells us all that you fail as a horror fan.

                            Well, from that unwarranted personal attack, I'd guess you're a spoiled 12 year old brat.
                            Mum & Dad was excellent!!
                            I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!

                                I'm not sure about better but as far as French horror goes Mutants is definitely worth a watch.
                                It's a bit contrived, as all movies seem to be, but has a nice bleak atmosphere. It's and interesting take on the zombie apocalypse genre.
                                Well, somebody's gonna have to go out there.

                                  Personally, I preferred Switchblade Romance/High Tension over Inside.
                                  Martyrs started well but went further and further downhill once the 'twist' was revealed. It just got silly and boring thereon.
                                  Ils is ok but not great.

                                    A few other french ones I have seen recently and liked.. Caged (Captifs), Prey, 5150 Elms Way. Worth checking those out if you haven't seen any of em.

                                      this?
                                      Looks like great cinematography, digital camera system, good FX, too devoid of character relations, usual monstrosity flick. Think I'll pass.

                                        A lot are better most notably Martyrs and High Tension.
