Back in the early 2000's, the big horror genre that everyone was talking about was the French Extreme cinema. Basically it was an over-the-top subgenre of horror film that was called back the shocking days of drive-in cinema but with more realistic and less grindhouse in its approach. One of these films became an instant classic. That film was called INSIDE (2007).Sarah (Alysson Paradis) was in an awful car accident that leaves her a widow. Pregnant and all alone, she keeps busy with her office job and her home chores. On Christmas Eve, she doesn't accept either her mother's or her boss's offers to spend the holiday with either. While police are busy with city riots, a woman knocks on her door asking to use the phone. When Sarah refuses using the excuse that her husband is sleeping, the woman says that she knows he is dead.The film also stars French legend Beatrice Dalle. Co-directed by Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo off a script by Bastillo, the film received rave reviews for those who could endure it. A patreon pick by listeners, your co-hosts take a look at this cult classic and gives their thoughts.
Director Alexandre Aja created a French Extreme masterpiece with this sordid tale of 2 out-of-sync friends. It delivers on its "promise" of High Tension with the blood and gore that has become synonymous with the horror subgenre.

For the first time ever, Adventures in Movies takes their act on the road. Danny and Blake keep the crowd happy at the Sun City Fright Fest while Nathaniel handles things from deep in the heart of Texas. The Sun City Fright Fest provided us an opportunity to talk about some of our favorite things in horror. Stephen King, foreign horror, and found footage are just some of the topics we brought to El Paso.If you are going to talk horror, then it is impossible to not talk about Stephen King. King is obviously one of the most important voices in film, but what is importance overall? How does his work from decades ago still resonate with today's crowd? And will his works ever stop being adapted?It is hard to believe that Scream came out a quarter of a century ago. Its influence on the genre is obvious, but is it the most influential movie of the past twenty-five years? We also talk about how it was the final nail in the coffin for slashers and marvel at the casting of Drew Barrymore.Found footage is one of the most polarizing sub genres out there. We discuss the ending of The Blair Witch Project and try to think of a better ending in point of view films. We also talk about the future of these types of movies and how they have affected non horror movies.Foreign horror has been incredibly popular in the United States. We talk about J-Horror and wonder why it seems to have gotten over better than scary movies from other countries. We also talk about what we would like to see and try to talk about the difference between extreme an mainstream horror.

Sacré bleu! This week our hosts venture to land of love, art, cigarettes, baguettes and... problematic plots twists! They watched the French film High Tension (Haute Tension), the 2003 debut of director Alexandre Aja. They discuss the early-2000's French Extreme film movement, of which High Tension helped define. The big questions with this film: can you still enjoy a film that botches the ending? Can you appreciate a film's visual style if you don't agree with the messaging? Check out the full episode details
The Ghouls get extreme this week. French Extreme that is. High Tension and Martyrs are up for discussion and no surprise, the ladies do not see eye to eye on them.
Welcome the newest episode of Dark Discussions, your place for the discussion of horror film, fiction, and all that’s fantastic. French filmmaker Alexandre Aja in 2007 was probably best known for his French Extreme horror film HIGH TENSION (2003) and the remake of THE HILLS HAVE EYES (2006). In 2007 his co-written script for a taut horror/thriller he was able to have produced. The movie entitled P2 (2007) was made for a small budget of $3.5M, received a cinematic release, and got fairly good reviews from critics including Roger Ebert. Angela (Rachel Nichols) is working late downtown Manhattan on Christmas Eve. Her extended family is waiting for her to arrive but unfortunately work seems to take priority for her. By the time she leaves, her car, parked on level P2 of the underground parking garage, won’t start. Finding friendly security guard Thomas, she tries to see if he could get her a taxi. But he offers first to see if he can jump start the vehicle. Unfortunately unexpected things happen, and Angela must survive an unexpected nightmare. The movie returned double its budget and gave a platform for some to expand their careers. Rachel Nichols became a leading lady that soon was given a chance to star in such blockbusters as the CONAN (2011) remake. Years later, this film with the odd title remains a hidden gem that many haven’t seen. Dark Discussions, for their annual Christmas movie, discuss P2 and their thoughts. As always we welcome your comments: darkdiscussions@aol.com (written email or attached mp3 files) WWW.DARKDISCUSSIONS.COM

After a short break the boys are back to talk the big 3 of French Extreme. On this episode we will be taking a look at Frontiers, Inside, and Martyrs.
Sometimes audio falls through the cracks. Be it an editing issue, or time issue or act of god, this episode has been trying to get out since September. Yet we're happy it's hitting now, as there isn't ever a comfortable time to sit down and discuss the French Extreme masterpiece Martyrs. Which is why we're thankful to have the News Editor for The A.V. Club, Katie Rife, joining us in this endeavor!
In the early 2000’s horror fans were blessed with a bevy of bleak, bloody, and bad ass horror films from the land of the baguette. The French Extreme movement brought us modern classics such as Martyrs, Inside, and Frontier(s), then laid in wait until American audiences began to feel safe, before once again dumping buckets of blood onto […] More

Warning: Explicit content. What are your limits? Surely there are some types of horror movies that you will not watch. Or are there? There has always been an audience for the disturbing and unsettling image. And there’s an intimate relationship between the violence and sensationalism shown in Underground Movies and the anxieties of our culture. In this episode I discuss Exploitation Films and Extreme Horror: its history starting with Thomas Edison’s first experiments with the movie camera through the Grindhouse Era to Modern Horror Cinema.

This episode is a companion piece to Episode 4, “Blood Oaths and Bar Tabs: Horror Conventions and Cinema Wasteland.” In this episode we interview Dave Kosanke, the creator of the long-running and legendary underground fanzine “Liquid Cheese.” It is an exhaustive love letter to everything from horror to heavy metal to XXX films. Since 1993, Dave has been a one-man Army. Liquid Cheese is a true fanzine in every sense of the word. Dave puts the whole thing together himself, and he has done that for 23 years, outliving most other fanzines and one or two professional magazines.

It’s the quest of every ultra-fan: finding fellow obsessives to share in the collective joy. Fan conventions provide a meeting place and an outlet for like-minded folk.

Sharing the movie experience with a theater full of people can be exhilarating or frightening—sometimes both. You put yourself in the hands of the filmmaker to take that ride, not knowing where or how it’s going to end. In rare cases a movie can provide an audience with an ecstatic, transcendent experience, almost religious in its power that leaves you walking on air afterward and running back to grasp that experience again. Sometimes the audience isn’t ready for that story or style and the shared experience with the audience is much darker and marked with disapproval…and sometimes outright hatred. It’s as if the film has committed sacrilege against your expectations for it. When that happens in a horror film is it the fault of the film or filmmaker, or the audience not prepared for the “horrible-beautiful” imagery and storytelling that challenges the comfort zone? In this episode we discuss religious and sacrilegious experiences in movie theaters, and the unwritten pacts that audiences make with filmmakers, and how the shared experience in a theater affects your own experience of the film Movies Discussed: In 1895, the Lumiere Brothers showed their film “Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat Station”.

What's the "First Kiss?" The First Kiss is the event that hooks you into your passion and obsession. Budding horror fans are carefully fed safe increments of scares by kiddie movies with frightening edges that end up with happy endings. But what are the moments we stumble upon that aren’t carefully supervised? What movies, books, stories are the first reveal of the shock and surge that good horror can produce in its fans? We talk about that first thrill, that first shock, that first kiss.
