You can’t have a memorable Midnight Madness at the Toronto International Film Festival without 911 being called — right? Raw, a French-Belgian film that follows a vegetarian’s journey to becoming a cannibal (yes, really), was so graphic midway through, that multiple audience members passed out and an ambulance had to be called, with some possibly even having vomited from sheer terror. First-time director Julia Ducournau’s film premiered at Cannes Film Festival in May and won a critics’ prize, and based on the reaction at TIFF, it earned it. So wanna watch #Raw now @TIFF_NET — Denis Sasse (@Denis_Sasse) September 14, 2016RAW: the paramedics had to come to the theater, some audience members passed out! #TIFF16 — Alicia Malone (@aliciamalone) September 13, 2016I remember a few folks getting queesy during a #TIFF screening of "127 Hours" a few years back.
