Review of Switchblade Romance DVD by LostWitness

Advantages: It's mad, I tell you, MAD!
Disadvantages: Outcome doesn't make much sense

...they should be. Horrific. Enter Switchblade Romance…. Originally released in its native France as La Haute Tension, Switchblade Romance is completely mad. That's a difficult comment to justify without giving too much of the plot away, but suffice it to say that the director is obviously a nutcase. From the very beginning, the film exhibits a particularly gruesome approach to the subject matter. Our introduction to the film's killer shows he performing ... Read review

Fantastic film, if you leave before the end!
Review of Switchblade Romance DVD by l-m-n-o-p

Advantages: A genuinely scary, tense, gory and well-made horror
Disadvantages: Has a mindblowingly dreadful twist which ruins it

...UK, for some bizarre reason, Switchblade Romance). It tells the story of two friends, Marie (Cécile de France) and Alex (played by somebody just called Maiwenn!), who are on the way to stay with Alex's parents at their countryside farm. However, what starts off as just a regular evening soon takes a turn for the horrifying, as a strange old man (Philippe Nahon) turns up in the truck out of Jeepers Creepers (seriously, I think it is the same truck). ...

I won't let anyone come between us any more.
Review of Switchblade Romance DVD by blackman007

Advantages: terrifying!!!!
Disadvantages: not one of those movies you can watch over and over!

Switchblade Romance (Haute Tension) Watching this movie feels like a throw back to the 70's and early 80's where the influx of highly bloody and violent movies coined the phrase "video nasty." You remember these films - Cannibal Holocaust, Zombie Flesh Eaters, Driller Killer, the more commonly known The Evil Dead and of course Tobe Hooper's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. However, as time as gone on, most of the cinema growing public have been greatly ... Read review

The Horror Film Makes A Comeback
Review of Switchblade Romance DVD by kitty17

Advantages: Great if you like horror
Disadvantages: Possibly very frightening if you don't

...into English as 'High Tension' Switchblade Romance delivers much more than simply high tension in this explosive and delightfully blood-soaked, riveting shocker of a film. On my first viewing of the film, I began watching the film having no prior knowledge of it, only that it was French, and was supposedly a good horror film, I was not ready. I think upon my first viewing of the film I endured it rather than appreciated it, as in the midst of ... Read review

see it before the remake
Review of Switchblade Romance DVD by tilly77

Advantages: very original
Disadvantages: maybe too gory for some

I saw this film advertised in many film & music magazines over the last year and always wanted to see it. Being a fan of foreign films, especially French, I waited for the DVD but read hardly anything about it except the basic plot: 2 college friends, Marie and Alex, are on their way to Alexs parents secluded farmhouse to study. Later that night a serial killer turns up at the house and massacres Alex's family leaving the 2 girls to out-run the ... Read review
