The acting in this was unbelievably high octane! Totally mesmerising in conjuction with the dramatic cinematography and I'd love to see more like it.
To illustrate the power of the performaces, I recall that I came to the film after hearing the audio of the subway scene sampled at the climax of the first Cultes des Ghoules album, which grew in my mind for some time before curiosity became too great and I had to experience this extremely disturbing snippet in its proper context. The fact that the scene was completely different to the one I'd imagined only reinforced the feeling I had by that point that I'd never seen anything quite like this film before.
Great film! Any recommendations based on the performances will be appreciated.

I watched this sometime last year and was really impressed by it. The subway scene was honestly one of the scariest and most disturbing things I'd ever seen.
I remember being initially put off by the performances because they seemed so over the top. But as the film carried on, I got more used to the style of acting.

I know whst you mean but i think you get used to it fairly quickly because the camerawork has that same intensity as the acting. It's like you step into a maelstrom and just have to go with it.
