Calvaire (lit. Calvary, also known as The Ordeal) is a 2004 psychological horror film directed by Fabrice Du Welz, starring Laurent Lucas, Philippe Nahon and Jackie Berroyer. It was Fabrice Du Welz's first full-length film.

Marc Stevens (Laurent Lucas) is a young traveling singer. After a concert at a nursing home a few days before Christmas, Marc begins traveling to his next destination. Marc's van breaks down in a deserted mountain region where he is taken in by Mr. Bartel (Jackie Berroyer), an innkeeper who is psychologically fragile due to his wife Gloria leaving him.
