Martyrs (2008)

A young woman's quest for revenge against the people who kidnapped and tormented her as a child leads her and a friend, who is also a victim of child abuse, on a terrifying journey into a living hell of depravity.

This movie is quite amazing since its violence does break some boundaries - and I know many will not be able to bear what is shown here -, but it still has style, a very surprising and intelligent plot, and an semi-metaphysical open ending that is good cause for discussions. Unfortunately, I'd have a lot to say about this movie, but can't without giving away much of the content. And you need to see this one with as little knowledge as possible.
