A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Absolutely chilling experience. Psychological horror Von Trier style is well basically what you'd expect.. it's depressing and highly disturbing, while still being beautiful to look at, both literally and figuratively! It's full of hidden or double meanings and subtle nuances that make it even more haunting and thought provoking.
This is one of the best movies of the decade in terms of depth & overall shock value; it might take the average person a few repeated times watching it to fully understand it (I know I had to), but it steals your heart regardless. This is a horror/ thriller by category & it never disappoints and lets up. Both main actors give a tremendous performance. This movie will have a deep impact on you, regardless of who you are. I'm surprised to see only a 6.6/10 rating at the moment I'm writing this review.
This is one heck of a disturbing movie, brilliantly acted by William Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsborough, superb camera work, Directed by Lars Von Trier. Explicit violence and sex scenes, superb script and story line that keeps you guessing until the very end.WARNING: Not for the faint hearted or prudish
Antichrist is a visually stunning - and admittedly often times difficult to watch - film, I would say let down only by Dafoe's inability to perform any facial expression outside of his regular :- l face. One of the largest issues that people have with this film is what it decides to show. It has a lot of gore and nudity, but I can't say it is gratuitous. It's not a grindhouse movie; the nudity really only shows the film's ability to deal with mature themes, and the gore - when it does appear - is almost entirely to lend itself to some symbolic or plot-furthering motive. The film itself seems quite heavily rooted in religious themes (if you hadn't guessed by the title), but it is pretty hard to tell what exactly all of the symbols, imagery and subtext surmounts to, what it's trying to show. Predictably Trier has not come up with an answer to most of it, instead he goes on about how the film "came to him", which in my books is a very roundabout way of excusing a film that pretends to have substance beneath the immediately obvious plot where none exists. That said, the movie stands up on its own quite well and doesn't really require much explaining from the director to do so - although it certainly would be nice. Whilst being easily more successful, it isn't far from Refn's 'The Neon Demon' in the way that it ends up being a meaningless flick rather than something with deep, thought- provoking concepts. That said, the movie is very entertaining to watch from face value, and one of the better horror movies I have watched in a very long time.
