There's an English-subtitled trailer for Daniel 'Podz' Grou's 7 Days (Les 7 jours du talion) - a.k.a. "Seven Days" and "Les sept jours du talion" - on the website of Alliance Vivafilm. (There's an unsubtitled HD version of that trailer on AlloCiné.)
The screenplay for 7 Days was written by Patrick Senécal, based on his novel Les sept jours du talion. The movie stars Claude Legault, Martin Dubreuil, Fanny Mallette, Rémy Girard, Pascale Delhaes, and Rose-Marie Coallier.
Here's a synopsis for 7 Days from the production: "Bruno Hamel (Claude Legault) is a thirty-eight-year-old surgeon. He lives in Drummondville with his wife Sylvie (Fanny Mallette) and their eight-year-old daughter Jasmine (Rose-Marie Coallier). Like many happy people, he leads an uneventful life, until a beautiful fall afternoon when his daughter is raped and murdered. From then on, the world of the Hamel family collapses. When the murderer is arrested, a terrible project germinates in Bruno's darkened mind. He plans to capture the 'monster' (Martin Dubreuil) and make him pay for his crime. The day the murderer appears in court, Bruno - who had prepared his plan in great detail - kidnaps the monster. He later sends the police a brief message, stating that the rapist and murderer of his daughter is going to be tortured for 7 days and then executed. Once this task is accomplished, he will give himself up."

Patrick Sénécal wrote this as well as Evil Words that came out a few years ago.
His writing is very good, good horror elements usually, so hopefully this will also be a good adaptation.
The director of this I am not very familiar with but the cast is decent. Remy Girard is a very good actor. |
