Horror Film Help???????????
I saw a trailer 4 a Horror Film I think last year or in 05, It was like a Art house Horror film (VERY STYLISH) I thought it was High Tension but it was not.
Any one have any idea please let me know. I dont think it was an american film.

Sorry, I know its a very vague question. I have a condition that keeps me from remembering things but not all the time.
Maby its a dead end but I thought I would toss it out there and see if someone was in to art house films that had seen this horror film.
The trailer I saw was on TV and I only saw it one time and was not paying that mouch attention.
I wish I had more info but all I can remember is that I thik it was a british film (thats why I thought it was High Tension)
All I know is what ever the hell it was I want to see it. hehehe

How about Wolf Creek?
I didn't see High Tension, so I don't know if it's similar, but it is a stylish, non-US, horror flick from 2005. Longshot, but it's what popped into my head.

Thanks 4 the suggestions, I just looked up arthouse films at twitch and coudn't find any thing. 
Oh well, I did find some cool looking films 2 see on that web page.
I have ordered Calvaire: The Ordeal, Gozu, and Clone. I think I will also get Experiments in Terror and Dreamland.

I want an hour & 43 minutes of my life back! I found it to be very boring, very little happens, when something does happen they really don't explain it. I understand that it's a movie about how it emotionally impacts the people who have to deal with those who "came back," but at least have some sort of sensible plot instead of random encounters.
Here are they main issues I had with the movie:
