The rare film with a reputation that speaks for itself, MARTYRS is perhaps the defining film of the New French Extremity movement and director Pascal Laugier's masterpiece. Horrifying and thought-provoking in equal measure, it is a deeply philosophical and challenging work of extreme cinema - and undoubtedly one of the finest horror films produced in the twenty-first century.
Featuring heartbreaking performances by its two female lead actors and truly shocking imagery that lingers long in the mind courtesy
of special effects designer Benort Lestang,MARTYRS has risen above debates surrounding "torture porn" to emerge as one
of the truly great works of extreme cinema.
