I was in the mood for horror and this title seemed to grab my attention. And sometimes even when you begin to think; what is it am I watching, you just have to stick with it regardless, to respect the hard work and dedication of the film even if you're not necessarily connecting with it. This 2009 French film was directed by David Morlet and written by Louis-Paul Desanges and David Morlet. It was violent, bloody, and very disturbing; not really my type of thrilling or horror type flick.
What saved this film was the acting by Hélène de Fougerolles and Francis Renaud who played the main characters Sonia and Marco. The chemistry between them was believable, even when her love was being transformed slowly but surely into a horrid beast. The cinematography also was absolutely marvelous and camera angles and techniques used showed the audience that the camera men knew what they were doing.
Highly unsettling love-story that ends with a delightful yet frightening twist; if you're in the mood for a science-fiction, sub-titled, gory love story, then tune in. It may not be the best film; but you can practice your French and admire the lovely backdrops…
