What to Know

Critics Consensus

Perhaps slapdash with its aspirations toward message-making, this ultra-gory horror flick nonetheless delivers the bloody goods.

Manohla Dargis New York Times The real surprise of Frontier(s) is that this creepy, bloody contemporary gross-out also has some ideas, visual and otherwise, wedged among its sanguineous drips. Rated: 3.5/5 May 9, 2008 Full Review Scott Tobias AV Club A relentlessly ugly and derivative reworking of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Rated: C May 8, 2008 Full Review Jim Ridley Village Voice It's as relentless as it is hateful, hammily directed and derivative of the dreariest slop in contemporary American horror cinema. May 8, 2008 Full Review Kat Hughes THN Watching Yasmine’s ordeal is ghastly, but as she finds her inner strength, she proves herself a fine candidate for the part of final girl. Rated: 4/5 Jul 24, 2023 Full Review Rich Cross Starburst Landing somewhere between Delicatessen and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, this neo-nazi-cannibal bloodfest still possesses an impressive, distinctive spirit of its own. Rated: 5/5 Jul 17, 2023 Full Review C.H. Newell Father Son Holy Gore Frontier(s) wields such power by illustrating how the boundaries of the body are horrifically violated by politics and ideology. Rated: 4/5 May 1, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Robson C Em Paris, enquanto manifestações tomam às ruas contra um governo de extrema direita sendo eleito, um grupo de amigos realizam um assalto e fogem para a Holanda. No caminho, eles decidem parar em um hotel para descansar. Aqui começa o seu pesadelo. Representante do movimento do New French Extremity, a violência e o sangue é abundante na tela. O seu diretor e roteirista consegue criar excelentes momentos de tensão. As referências são óbvias: O Albergue e O Massacre da Serra Elétrica. Além disso, outras cenas lembram The Descent (em uma cena absolutamente claustrofóbica) e The Hills Have Eyes. As cenas de morte são muito boas e os efeitos práticos são usados e abusados. O roteiro pode ser simples, usar de alguns clichês, mas é direto, além de tratar de outros temas como o crescimento da extrema direita, aborto e xenofobia. Com certeza, não é um filme para quem tem estômago fraco, mas o gore, o sangue e a violência agradarão os fãs desse gênero. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review Oaklee D An unflinchingly brutal and at times downright grotesque experience. This film is a must view for horror fans. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/10/25 Full Review JIm C Although the back story is interesting and the baddies somewhat novel, there's nothing much that's new here. There is so much screaming in this movie that towards the end it almost became laughable. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/24 Full Review Courtney K yikes; when they said it was violent/gorey, they weren't kidding - some of those scenes are brutal. i wasn't really into the whole Nazi storyline, but the end escape was pretty epic. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/08/23 Full Review Bruno S Brutal,visceral e imperdível Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review jonas m Superb French horrormovie, one of my favorites.
