    During my viewing, my opinions were constantly at war with each-other. Was I watching a bad movie that happened to have flashes of brilliance? Or a good movie which was making some severe missteps? After it was over, I pondered as to what I had just watched. Then I pondered some more. After hours of tearing my imaginary hair out in frustrated contemplation, I came to my conclusion. "You're Next" just wasn't worth stressing out over. It's not a very good movie, in spite of what the critics AND itself seems to think.

    As an American, I've heard many of the "French are pussies” statements among my fellow countryman, especially around the time of the Iraqi War. Yet whenever I'd listen to these rants- maybe even reluctantly joining in myself- I would look around in fear. For what my fellow Americans don't know is that the French are the most terrifying and wrathful people in the entire world. My evidence? I've seen their horror films and they scare me. I, of course, have to presume that a countries horror genre represents the peoples mentality as a whole. Just look at today's subject, “Martyrs”. It is one of the darkest and most harrowing horror films I've ever had to experience.
