Disturbing depiction of one man’s descent into madness as he rationalizes executing and dehumanizing other human beings
a GOAT movie right here, any conversation I have about tv&movies ends with a reccomendation to go immediately see this.
Probably one of the best psychological horror films. There's a lot to learn about moral responsibility. A classic.
Forget everything you know about humankind and watch this movie. You will see how your world will change immediately!
One of the greatest films ever. A perfect masterpiece. Greatest Nazi satire. Some of the best editing and shooting I've seen
Self-help guru says cremation solves everything. HR called. Cinema peaked anyway.
I read a Letterboxd review saying this film “eats itself.” A rare perfect summation from that site. Hrusinsky acts spectacularly deranged.
Felt like inspiration for Lanthimos and Wes Anderson. Really enjoyed the editing.
One of the coolest movies. Very original. Worth watching
Technically well made but as a horror and as a comedy it rarely moved the needle for me.
