10 Shocking Movies That Will Scar You For Life

From one extreme French movie to another. This horror thriller from Alexandre Bustillo and Julien Maury in their directorial debuts should come with a warning... Do Not Watch Whilst Pregnant.

Unsurprisingly, pregnancy is a ripe topic to explore within the horror genre as there is so much fear to be examined. The taxing transformation of body and mind has been the stuff of nightmares in other horror movies that deal with the gift of life, but not this one. Instead, Inside examines the fear of somebody else trying to steal your baby, and it does so in ultraviolent fashion.

In what is possibly the most sickeningly bloody Christmas movie of all time, an expectant mother is still waiting on the birth of her overdue child, mere months after surviving a car accident that killed her husband. As she waits home alone, making her final preparations to visit hospital, she soon finds herself being terrorised by an unknown stranger who has taken a disturbing fancy to her unborn child.

The tension is pitch perfect, the movie impeccably crafted, and the horror is unforgettably brutal. Just remember to hide the scissors at Christmas time.
