Martyrs
Rating: 6.0 / 10 (59 votes cast)

In Theatre : Unknown
Director(s): Pascal Laugier

France. A night at the beginning of the 1970s. Lucie, a little girl missing for over a year, is discovered wandering by the side of a country road. Near catatonic, she can say nothing about what has happened to her.

The cops quickly find the place in which she's been incarcerated - a disused slaughterhouse. Every indication is that she never once left the empty, freezing room in which she was imprisoned. Filthy, starving, dehydrated, the child's body nonetheless bears no traces of sexual abuse - this was no pedophile abduction, but something far stranger. What happened in that icy room? And how did Lucie escape?

Martyrs Review by JoeTerror

After briefly reading what Martyr’s was about and seeing all kinds of rave reviews on how brutal and disturbing this was I couldn’t wait to rush to the mall and pick this one up, sight unseen. Yea, I’m ...
Martyrs Review by TheFecalKid

The French just know how to make a good horror movie. Inside, Frontière(s), High Tension, the list goes on. I first saw the trailer for Martyrs last fall and was immediately sold. There's just something about thes...
Martyrs Review by moviemaven

Where to begin with this film. To tell you too much about it would be a disservice to you the viewer and to the film itself so my synopsis will be brief. Lucie Jurin was found as a child, running away from an abusive sit...
Martyrs Review by jay_wigger

The film: It's rare that a film so polarizes viewers that there is no middle ground, but writer/director Pascal Laugier's Martyrs is so stark in its depiction of brutality and its psychological effects that even some har...
Martyrs Review by Meh

Those of you who know me will know I hate violence for the sake of violence in movies. I also tend to steer away from the very graphic horror films since I feel its exploitive and rarely serves  a purpose in our gen...
