Chain Reaction aka House of Blood (2006)
Though the screenplay & some characterization & acting were kinda average sometime but this English language German horror flick from Olaf Ittenbach delivers some nice gory moments with a quite interesting premise: The Prisoners of Doom! Seems bit inspired by modern classics like
The Evil Dead &
From Dusk till Dawn. Dan van Husen was great in that creepy psychopath character. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Sennentuntschi: Curse of the Alps (2010)
Quote:

An Alpine legend tells the story of three lonely herdsmen who were so starved of female companionship they built the girl of their dreams from a broom, some straw and a few rags. Then the Devil took pity and made Sennentuntschi live and breathe. This fable informs the first ever shocker from Switzerland, a complex and twisted tale of past crimes, tragic love, ghostly encounters, horrendous murder, unexplained suicide and sexual enslavement. Continually surprising, brilliantly directed and superbly acted, this unusual and beguiling mystery chiller finally puts Switzerland on the genre map.
