Lady Blood (2008)
A sort of old fashioned french horror flick.

That's not the kind of movie I first expected to watch. I was waiting for a "new wave" french horror picture, the kind you can discover since Alexandre Aja's HAUTE TENSION, in 2003. And afterwards CALVAIRE, A L'INTERIEUR, FRONTIERES, MARTYRS, HUMAINS, VERTIGE and so on...Not all excellent but that had nothing to do with the old fashioned stuff we could see in the 70's - with Jean Rollin's features - or in the 89's and 90's. This one - LADY BLOOD - makes me think about those. It looks like a short feature blown in a long one. Watch the score, editing, character play, everything smells horror pictures made in France twenty years ago.

And it remains more a crime tan a horror flick. It could have been made for TV releasing.

Only for hardcore lovers of this kind of stuff.
