Gallery: Martyrs

The film that had hardgore horror fans retching in the aisles at 2008’s London FrightFest is destined to become the most ferocious, uncompromising horror movie of 2009. French director Pascal Laugier’s dark, twisted spin on a traditional revenge story should carry a government health warning (that the BBFC passed it uncut is a minor miracle), but will not be quickly forgotten by those who can stand it.
