13 Tzameti

A friend called and recommended this to me. It was actually already in my Netflix queue, so I moved it to the top and watched it the other night.

It's a French thriller with the subtlety of Hitchcock but with a more modern sense of brutality. It was very interesting yet very simple. I won't say much more as they will be remaking it with an American cast with the same writer/director. Normally, I'd frown on something like this, but with its sub-90 minute runtime, I'm really curious to see what the director can do with a bigger budget and another crack at this idea.
