Rent The Ordeal (2004)

Calvaire

Stranded somewhere in the Ardennes after his van breaks down, Marc Stevens (Laurent Lucas), a traveling cabaret singer, is taken in by a kindly inn keeper who offers to fix his van and give him shelter for the night. But the motivation for the inn-keeper's kind actions soon changes from altruism to a fervent desire to prevent his new guest from ever leaving. The thing is Marc reminds the lonely inn-keeper of his long-lost wife. Before Marc knows it, his van is sabotaged and he is stranded. But this is only the start of his ordeal and what follows has to be seen to be believed...

The Ordeal review by Lucy

This film was extremly slow paced but kept your attention all the way through. It was a good movie with a poor ending. My partner and I both agreed if the ending had been stronger this would have been a great film.
