    A stomach wrenching movie. It's really well done and it really makes you think.
  • A thought provoking controversial depressing body horror movie which you will only watch and never again cos it will be seered into your mind forever.

    Very thought-provoking. Very disturbing. The ending is left up to your own interpretation.

    I first watched Martyrs 16 years ago, and it left a lasting, overwhelming impression. Despite seeing hundreds of gore and body horror films since then, revisiting it proved it still holds incredible power. It remains in my top three—French extreme cinema is unmatched.

    Martyrs is the most disgusting, disturbing, horrifying and most of all truly unforgettable films that I've ever watched in my entire life!! Even though this isn't a film, that I go back and rewatch all that often; but as a horror nut this really gave me one of those burnt 🔥 in my brain 🧠 movie going experiences of all time holy s**t Seriously the Director of this film can't have been in a good place mentally when making this film; there is so much disturbing s**t in here that it does stop and make you think 🤔 what the hell was going through that man's mind when making this movie. Even though "Martyrs" is controversial as f**k this gave me a movie going experience, that I've never felt before or since and for better or worse "Martyrs" is one of those once in a lifetime movies that you'll never ever forget. "Martyrs" is ultimately just one of those movies; even if you only watch it once, will stay with you for the rest of your life!!!

    You shouldn’t watch this. So much blood and brutality. Plot holes you can drive a precession through. And an ending that feels like you’ve been edged for the last few hours and then left hanging.

    Ultra violent and depraved, yet it is a very interesting film.

    It's a really raw, creepy, sickening movie and it reinvented the horror genre, some people find it disturbing, I really liked it.
