Wouldn’t recommend this film, but Frontier(s) is intriguing though heavy handed commentary on socio-political-historical dynamic in France! I went from hating this movie to grudgingly praising it for such an old school homage to using horror/slasher film as a metaphor for a country’s ills! Commentary on how current conservative political leanings in France is influenced by the horror of collaboration with the Nazis, but also how those politics are not sustainable because it is a sick nostalgia as evinced by inbreeding, whoring & cannibalism. The old guard cannot survive & must rely on immigrants to do the work. This reliance reveals a hypocrisy between a desire to remain pure, but unable to survive (dive in birth rates of European population versus immigrants). This conflicted desire for immigration, but hatred of the immigrant ultimately will lead to the death of the old guard yet there are dangers of assimilation of the immigrant to becoming like those who persecute the immigrant: murdering captors, cannibalism & eventually surrendering to the establishment instead of fighting it. Also lots of vagina dentata imagery.
