Haute Tension is like a French art-house essay on slasher-movie cliches, and as such is good nasty fun.

Gory European gothic horror doesn't come any grittier and weirder than it does when a couple of would-be lesbian college girlfriends retreat to a weekend at the secluded farmhouse of one of their parents to study for their final exams.

You have to give it to the filmmakers for their contempt of convention: no foreplay, no teasing, no steady buildup of dread, just a knock on the door and the slaughterer is there.

A cinematically sound but sub-par horror flick readied for the American mass market by the addition of English credits and some truly atrocious dubbing.

A lame exercise, delivering shameless thrills at the expense of logic and genuine suspense.

An extremely well-made, very grisly and ultimately dishonest slasher film that's too clever for its own good.

Disturbing, demented, gory and one of the best horror films I've seen in a while...

Very bloody, sometimes difficult to watch and sometimes just tiresome.

The last three fourths of this film are basically like the last five minutes of Halloween -- total fear and total suspense.

Director Alexandre Aja, who wrote this with Gregory Levasseur, doesn't have a gift for horror suspense so much as a compleat geek knowledge of all the superior scare flicks that have preceded High Tension.
