help High Tension FAQ
What is the twist in High Tension?
The film eventually reveals that Marie and the apparent male killer are not separate people. Her pursuit of Alex is filtered through an unreliable, dissociative version of events, which is why several earlier scenes appear logically contradictory.
What is High Tension's original French title?
The original title is Haute tension. Alexandre Aja directed the 2003 French slasher and co-wrote it with Grégory Levasseur.
Who plays Marie, Alex, and the apparent killer?
Cécile de France plays Marie, Maïwenn plays her friend Alex, and Philippe Nahon appears as the brutal man presented as their attacker. Most of the story unfolds around Alex's isolated family farmhouse and the killer's truck.
Was High Tension edited for its American release?
Yes. Lions Gate released an English-dubbed, R-rated version in the United States with some violent material trimmed, while an unrated edition preserved more of the original gore.
