6 Utterly Traumatizing French Horror Films To Watch On Halloween

The first time I sat down to watch a French horror movie, it was a film called Switchblade Romance (which would later get the name change High Tension for American Audiences), and it fucking floored me. It was, in a word, relentless. The movie pretty much gut-punched you in the first ten minutes, and never allowed you the chance to catch your breath again. While I have some definite issues with the ending of that movie (as most rational people do), there is no arguing that it opened the door for horror fans to sit up and take notice of the French.

What is Trouble Every Day? I watched the film twice, and still do not know how to answer that. I guess the one thing I will say to anyone who sits down to watch this movie is, it is best not to have any sexual hangups before you watch the film. Seriously. This movie gels sex and death in a way you have NEVER seen before. Also, you will note, YES, the female in this movie is the same woman who played the sicko in the French horror classic Inside. Her name is Beatrice Dalle, and she is an unbelievable talent.

Trouble Every Day stars the overly pretentious Vince Gallo as a man who suffers from a rare and strange libido disease. Basically, when he gets turned on, he ends up getting feral and reacting violently. This causes him to look for a type of cure, which causes him to encounter the Beatrice Dalle character, who has the same affliction. At times, it may seem like a vampire film because it mixes blood sex and death. But it is not a vampire film. It is more a film about human nature. A film about the dark sides we all have, and how some of us nurture that side, and how some of us let it drive us insane and own us.

I can tell you, in all confidence, that you have never seen a film quite like Trouble Every Day, and it is well worth it if you can get past that first sex scene. Seriously, sex scenes rarely ever make me gag, as I am a twisted person, but the sex scene in this movie between Dalle and her “neighbour” had me reaching for the puke bucket.

Some might be turned off by the slow pace of this film, but it is a ride worth taking, because the couple dips the movie does take are truly depraved and unforgettable.
