Inside (2007)

Watch the road and finish your knitting project because we're delving back into the world of New French Extremity with a festive look at Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo's 2007 home invasion film Inside.

Join us as we laud lead actresses Béatrice Dalle and Alysson Paradis for their visceral performances before putting the film's narrative into the context of the 2005 French riots that serve as the background setting of the film.

Plus: a very emotive CGI fetus, the deadliest scissors you'll ever see, and some very incompetent law enforcement officers.
