Martyrs

2008 Pascal Laugier 99 MIN

A young woman’s quest for revenge against the people who kidnapped and tortured her as a child leads her and her best friend, also a victim of child abuse, on a terrifying journey into a living hell of depravity.

HORROR CENTRALITY
93 /100

Martyrs is built around extreme psychological and corporeal horror—torture, fear, and existential dread—so horror is fundamental to its identity; it is not primarily a crime, drama, or thriller with horror elements, but a horror-centric experience.
