High Tension Horror Preview

Originally Published: March 21, 2005

High Tension is a French laguange horror film that Lions Gate (Saw), becoming ever the horror specialty house, puchased the U.S. distribution rights to last year.

The film was originally produced by Europa, the company run by La Femme Nikita and The Professional director Luc Besson.

The plot revolves around two female students, Marie (played by Cecile De France) and Alex (Maiwenn Le Besco), set off to Alex’s parent’s (played by Andrei Finti and Oana Pellea) secluded homestead in the country to relax and study. Come nightfall, a hell-bent intruder pulls up at the front door. Alex is now bound and gagged, taken off, with Marie alluding the intruder. Can she save her friend’s life in time? Or is everything all that it seems.

High Tension is set for a June 2005 release.
