The Black Room

In a 16th-century European town, the ruling family has been given a prophecy that, should there ever be twin boys born, the younger will murder the older; so is dismayed when twins are born to the popular baron. The older grows to be a selfish, slovenly man, who inherits the castle at his father's death and becomes ruler over the formerly happy villagers. He enjoys his power until he learns his younger brother is returning from abroad and, afraid of the prophecy, he determines to murder his sibling, hide his body in the "black room" - an old torture chamber sealed away behind the fireplace - and then impersonate him, right down to his withered arm. In this way he hopes to not only avoid the prophecy, but also escape consequences of his other criminal deeds and obtain marriage to a local girl of the nobility...

Anything this movie has to offer is overshadowed by their abuse of animals. Awesome that the film industry tortures animals!

Basically, if you like being drawn in with bold story telling and decent imagery then this may be for you. However, if you are repulsed by stories with no climax or ending, then this is not for you. And the plot hints at 3 intertwining stories....NOT AT ALL. Just because the character appear for 10 seconds in a scene together does not make the stories INTERTWINE. Trust me you'll be disappointed. Imagine watching something like, The Departed, and as soon as the elevator opens up on Lenonardo DiCaprio the screen goes black. Yeah, like that

FOR TOTALLY unnecessary animal abuse, a real bear being forced to do tricks, a peacock kicked and pushed in water for no reason, and kids pulling back ducks wings almost breaking them and dragging them along, THIS HAS NO RELEVANCE IN THE STORY, HOLLYWOOD CASE OF ANIMAL ABUSE. IM SURPRISED THE ACTORS WENT ALONG WITH THIS, ZERO STARS AND SOMEONE SHOULD BE PUT IN JAIL FOR THIS! Awful. NOT OK.

First thing, this is not a movie everyone will enjoy. If you see the label fantasy and think it will be like Lord of the Rings, you are way off, and probably will be disappointed. It is definitely a fantasy but it is more like Pan's Labyrinth, but not really either. The best I can put it, it's different.Somewhat based on the Giambattista Basile's (I hadn't heard of him before either, but kind of interesting to look up) collection of fairytales. The movie therefore has several different subplots, very lossely connected (i.e. not at all really more than that the characters meet sometimes).The movie is no stranger to either nudity, sex or gore but it is not the highlights of the movie it all. It is just... there. The movie is more about different kinds of obsession. The pace of the movie is slow (sometimes refreshingly so) and not everything is explained. A lot of the stories you got to figure out yourselves, and somethings are never resolved. A movie fun to watch if you want to test something outside the mainstream blockbuster cinema.
