My good friend Simon is just like me! Except he's a hetero, lives in Sydney and has lame(r) taste in music. We had an entirely bizarre conversation via SMS today after I saw the French horror flick Ils last night. Here it is all it's all too brief glory.
Ils was quite scary.
SIMON:
Argh! Ils! Me want see! Maybe i'll go the blind import...
GLENN:
It's really short though! It's only 70minutes. Is that even technically feature length?
SIMON:
Yeah. just. I guess they kept it short to keep it effective? French horror is getting big! It's the new j-horror. Frorrer?
GLENN:
But haute tension was so bad! Like, really bloody bad!
SIMON:
I liked everything but the ending in that! Plus toronto has a couple of decent looking ones. And there's one called sheitan with vincent gallo playing this crazy dude and... um... his sister. That one wasn't that great.
GLENN:
Vincent Gallo can go suck donkey balls. That's all.
SIMON:
Wait! Cassel. Vincent cassel. Whoops. Sorry!
GLENN:
omg I need to see that movie! I love vincent cassel! Majorly.
SIMON:
Yeah, its not great. And it's pretty damn gross. But it's out here, at least!
GLENN:
But... Vincent cassel! Anything is better than j-horror though, don't you think!
SIMON:
It plays on very real fears! Of girls with creepy long hair! No, it's pretty bad, but it's prolific!
And then I was at work and the conversation ended. Just like this entry is ending... now. Now.

Okay, I Googled it, and no one else has used the term "Frorror". So, it's official, Frorror is my term now? I coined it. I've got the patent.
Awesome.
Also Haute Tension was an effective, visceral, scary and well done movie, just one with a tragically bad twist, k? K!
Frorror! Forever!
A twist that completely ruined everything that came before it (which wasn't that good).
Frorror! Forever!
