Serbian Film

[Compass]

Anyone seen this? Netflix synopsis:

Milos (Srdjan Todorovic) is a washed-up porn star who can't support his family. Then, a former "co-star" (Katarina Zutic) introduces him to Vukmir (Sergej Trifunovic), a director who wants to bring him out of retirement. The money's too good to pass up, but Milos is unaware of the dangers that await. By the time he discovers the sleazy truth about his new boss, everything he loves may be in jeopardy.

Came out last year, but currently only available to Save at Netflix. Apparently ultra-disturbing a la Salò, Irreversible, etc. (inb4 "zomg, I'm hard, I wasn't affected by any of that weak shit, furtherm--" yeah yeah, pipe down, junior. Disturbing to everyone but you, then.)

Last few years, I've been intrigued by these sorts of films though I don't typically enjoy them. I *think* I'm up for this, but Anti-christ may have scared me straight, I don't know.

Not looking for spoilers; I like to go in as fresh as possible. More just, yeah, it's hardcore, better stay away (which will probably make me more curious), or nah, it's been overhyped, it's not nearly as bad as such-and-such.

I've heard its on its own level of fucked-up-ness. I downloaded it yesterday and planned to watch it tonight. Everyone agrees, this film goes places no other film has dared to go. Most people who laughed in the face of Salo, Irreversible, In a Glass Cage etc say this movie almost goes too far.

I'll let you know what I think in a few hours.

trailer (VERY NOT SAFE FOR WORK):

Just finished watching this. It makes Irreversible look like Aladdin.

[Compass]

Mmm. I might have to sit this one out.

[Doc Holliday]

Very interesting.

[arjue]

Its hard to recommend this movie to anyone because the horrible bits are so bad that a great deal of people probably couldn't handle it, but it's a well crafted movie with depth and subtext, good acting and impact like a freight train. Try to avoid spoilers if you do want to watch it.

Go ahead and spoil it and I'll decide if I want to see it.

[MechDeus]

Irreversible has been sitting on my shelf for like a year now, never been watched. I should really get around to that.

[arjue]

Meh, there's no real point in watching it if you know whats going to happen. It'd lose a fuckload of impact. You should just trust me, it goes further than you've ever seen any other movie go. Still, for those who are still uninterested, here is a list of some of the vile acts in this movie, all looking as real as possible (Spoilers obviously):

getting a blowjob while watching a video of a 12 year old girl eat an ice cream
getting a blowjob while a 12 year old girl is watching
viciously beating a woman during sex
crying assaulted woman copping a facial
gay date rape
fucking of a mans eye socket
removing all of the teeth of a chained up woman with pliers then choking her with a dick until she dies
violently raping a woman, beheading her and fucking the corpse
a newborn baby being raped fresh from the mother
a father raping his 8 year old son so brutally blood starts pouring out the kids ass

I'm sure there's more that I'm forgetting. All of the sex looks real, and I think some of the blowjobs might be real. This movie is full of nudity of both genders including fully erect penises, and the violence is really brutal and realistic too.

[Doc Holliday]

Does the film have a 'happy ending'? Do any of the 'actors' survive? Is there the typical return to order and justice was served most movies have?

If so, then that's pretty shitty, as the one thing about Salo is that it never got better. At the end you feel completely crushed and the soilders dance.
