High Tension

HIGH TENSION (2003) - Oct. 21, 2005
This was an above-average slasher movie, and I was really enjoying it -- right up until the last ten minutes or so. Then there was a twist ending that was so ridiculous and so ludicrous that it actually made me want to reconsider my opinion of the movie. The ending initially seems to make no sense at all, and only gets worse the more you think about it. Worst twist since Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes. It left a really bad taste in my mouth and sullied an otherwise effective slasher film. ***
