If you loved El infierno (L'Enfer), try El carnicero
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Claude Chabrol, and they both carry the dread, paranoid mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to El infierno (L'Enfer), the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El carnicero is
A Parisian suburb in the damp tail-end of winter, the butcher’s chilled steel cleaver ringing one more time. An unassuming butcher shares a nightly table with a prim schoolteacher while above their street a blade cuts loose. Claude Chabrol’s crime-classic sharpens tension like the honed edge it hides.
