 Good review. Im going to go watch it right now..... thx

[savini1979]

@wataki2 Thanks i think you'll like it

Good review.

A pretty good movie by all means, but I personally think that it comes out looking pretty "weak" compared to the likes of High Tension, Martyrs and Inside. Still a good movie though.

[savini1979]

Thanks man , i really liked it but not as much as Inside & High Tension but i think it stood up to martyrs.

Frontiers however for me, was a pretty big letdown especially considering all the hype that surrounding it. Tame, visually uninteresting and dull, the score was totaly weak, uneffective, hardly original and was just bluh overall. If anything the Fathers adopted and huched young daughter was the the standount. ;p

Also when the leads head was boppin around at the end, i just couldn't take it seirously. Frontiers is laughable compared to Inside.

@Donatello97 I agree with u on Inside being better but i have to disagree with u on Frontieres being crap but i guess we all love different films . Thanks for your opinion though man

@Worminfestedovaries

Agreed. INSIDE was a blood masterpiece. Completely disturbing, with one amazing atmospheric score, the yellow hue that surround the house made it unsettling, le femme was just brutal and scary, i could go on and on. While Martyrs left a total dent in my pysyche for weeks....Just shocking, brutal, disturbing and horrifying....Much more than Inside Suprisngly. While High Tension was another good one, plus Goblin did the score. ;)
