High Tension

High Tension was released fifteen years ago back in 2003. (Seeing how it's October, I thought I'd add a little Halloween flavor to the 'barefoot scenes in movies' section of this blog.) Two life-long friends decide to spend some time together at one of the girl's parents' country house. It's not long before Marie (Cécile de France) kicks off her shoes.

Unfortunately a serial killer also invites himself to the house, and Marie winds up hiding from him (and saving her life in the process) under the bed.

Be very quiet!

Marie would wind up going barefoot throughout the rest of the movie.

And I would be remiss if I didn't mention that Marie's friend Alexia (Maïwenn) gets abducted right from her bed by the killer and carried off.

If you decide to see this French-made horror film, just beware that it's very gory and there's a really nasty twist at the end. Happy Halloween!
