Nice work, Monsieur Walmsley. I saw this at the Melbourne Film Festival last year and thought it was one of the strongest, most memorable films of the year. Incidentally, the powerful visual images (particularly the shots of a red-riding hood clad bloody protagonist stumbling through the winter forest) are thanks to cinematographer Benoit Debie, who also photographed 'Irreversible' and Dario Argento's 'The Card Player'. Knocks seven bells out of 'Hostel', I reckon.
