Plot – Spoilers:
The young daughter of a successful surgeon Hamel is raped and murdered while out distributing invitations to her upcoming birthday party. Though the killer is found within a week, Hamel just can’t get over the brutal loss, especially when he feels there was an outside chance he might have been able to prevent it.
So before the killer Lemaire can be produced in court, Hamel decides that justice served by the law is just not good enough…
7 days is a wonderfully exhausting experience in revenge and its effects on the perpetrator and throws up confusing questions about morals and principles.
absolutely amazing film. I haven’t been this emotionally invested in something that could be considered a horror movie before. thank you effedupmovies
Wow this movie is pretty crazy.
Good one
It was good. Great performances, but the movie overall, I personally did not feel anything about it was amazing.
No. Performance was not impressive. Certain executions were flawless, however reliant on luck rather than understanding of crew (ex: near end – scene begins 19:25 remaining – he smug laughs after looking at the criminal).
I can’t believe the courage (read: stupidity) of the actor portraying the bad guy to associate such horrible traits/ideas (i.e. his transgressions in the film) to his (real) face in the context of this movie. Nevertheless, there is no doubt that “crème de chantilly” sounds very nice and so it is.
Good.
Seeing the daughter like that was incredibly disturbing. Especially since I hadn’t expected her to be that young.
Good, worth watching.
This movie has always stuck with me. Seen it three times now. Perfect for this site. Highly recommended. [SPOILER] Watching him read what that medicine is about to do him, then seeing his terrified face just go slack… and the single tear that falls down his numb face as his insides are violated – Jesus, it gives me chills just thinking about it. It really makes you think about morality and revenge.
I think that the concept is great and has a perfect actors to do it, but… they might be more creative and did more things at the torture, is the only thing that i can call bad in this film.
Good film and fantastic acting sad story
