Total chaos in Paris after political election.Some young thieves flee from the town and will meet up at a hostel near the border to Luxemburg.What they don't now is that the owner is an old Nazi-general that could have been Hitlers best friend during world-war11.Also his other family members live there and they all total sickos who like the taste of blood.I build up big expectations for this film as I read a lot of positive reviews on internet and all pictures I seen looked great.Did I like it,well its a good solid horror film thats really the director Xavier Gens pot a lot of energy on.Its bloody and has a lot of violence,but to be honest I expected more on that department.On the + side it has a lot of tension and atmosphere.Actors do good performance and the film gets never boring.Can not say its original as I felt echoes from both Texas Chainsaw Massacre&Hostel but that doesn't matter.Frontiere(s) has a lot of potential but no masterpiece.But don't get me wrong the movie is good enough to be recommended.Often compared to another French classic Haute Tension and I must say I prefer Frontiere(s).Out in Sweden on DVD in June and its a must to my horror-collection.Recommended,I give it 7/10

Watched this thriller Untraceable last night.Plot is like this in short.A total sicko killing people live on internet and each time the killer does it in different ways.If much people log in to the site the victim reach heaven quicker.Movie is not my cup of tea,i found it just plain boring.I barely watched the film to the end,felt like I all time did now what will happen.If you want to watch a movie with similar plot but better done go rent Italian director Dario Argentos Card Player(not masterpiece but a bit more inspiring film).On the + side is Diane Lane as agent Jennifer Marsh and let me think...hhm..sorry nothing more.Not a thriller for me and I do not recommend it.I give Untraceable only 2/10.

Strange businessman hires a group of soldiers to go to an abandoned Nazi bunker in the East of Europe.Strange things happen and the soldiers are killed of one by one.Something in the bunker have no plans to let the visitors complete their mission.This is an British Horror-film thats really well made,original plot and has great look and fine set-pieces.Acting is OK and it has some good and gory murders.But to be fair I tough it was a bit boring and not scary at all.Thats just the case ,its not one of the better films I seen recent.Its no new masterpiece like Neil Marshalls The Descent or his excellent Werewolf movie Dog Soldiers.Best thing about the movie is the ending and the scary look of one of the forces that killing the Soldiers.Sorry folks my rating is only 4/10.
