Switchblade Romance (2003)

..and there was I thinking this years The Descent was gory! Strap yourselves in for this French( yes I said French!) high octane, stalk and slash flick which never skimps on the blood, by the end of the film what's remaining of the cast resemble those mad Spaniards who partake in that annual tomato throwing event!
The plot is your average horror flick, young women stalked by homicidal maniac, but the film is classily shot, creepy, scary and as pointed out lovely and gory with throats and limbs slashed and a tasty decapitate. (always a plus point in any movie!)
The film has a pretty smart twist at the end which I thought worked, though the popcorn crowd seem to treat it with disdain as it involves some thought.
The good news too is that director, Alexandre Aja, is to direct the forthcoming remake of the 70's classic The Hills Have Eyes, the odds on solid scary horror movie look very promising.
