Why Choose This Course
French New Extremity Films, a subgenre characterized by its graphic violence and bleak nihilism, continue to hold significant influence on contemporary cinematography. Their stylistic innovations, particularly in terms of camerawork and editing, resonate with modern filmmakers seeking to push boundaries. The gritty realism and unflinching portrayal of violence, though controversial, have found echoes in recent horror and thriller productions.
The UK market reflects this continued interest. According to a recent survey (hypothetical data for illustrative purposes), horror films accounted for 15% of box office revenue in 2022, up from 12% in 2021. This growth suggests a growing appetite for extreme cinema, although further research is needed to directly correlate this with the influence of French New Extremity films.
