A Serbian Film: The Most Disgusting Film In The World?

[TinaBelcher]

I've seen A Serbian Film before:

And was completely shocked and disgusted inside at times - that's when you know you've found a good horror flick. Tons of people don't appreciate it's approach to incest and porn - and honestly, I've hardly seen a film as horrifying as this.

Regardless, what are your thoughts on A Serbian Film?

Gross but I liked it.

The lead actor did a terrific job.

I'm quite surprised we haven't seen another full length movie from the director since. Maybe he's been blacklisted.

Visually, it's not the most disgusting movie, but thematically, it's really hard to stomach. I personally thought it was a well-made movie. I just don't want to watch it again.

A beautiful parental love story. What's wrong with you?

We've had this thread a few times before, no?

That's because it's hot. On so many levels.

As much as I think this movie is a very worthwhile watch if you have the stomach for it, hot is not how I would describe it.

I like this quote from wiki-p:

Tim Anderson of horror review site Bloody Disgusting wrote, "If what I have written here is enough to turn your feelings of wonder into a burning desire to watch this monstrosity, then perhaps I haven't been clear enough. You don't want to see Serbian Film. You just think you do."

I disagree with the quote personally...it's just written by someone that chose to ignore any merit (and there was some) by not looking past their views on some of the content.
It was a very effective, tragic, atmospheric, horrible and at the same time horrifying film...all done very well on what must have been a fairly minimal budget.

Yes there's some really disgusting subject matter and truly inhuman acts introduced, though the imagery itself is mostly implied.

Overall without looking at the supposed commentary the film was trying to make, overall it made me feel from uncomfortable, to disgusted, to elated when seeing the victim get his bloody revenge, to devastated and empty...and left with some things that will stay with me.

Personally, I think despite what I think of the content, if a movie, horror or otherwise can effect one so, it has done its job well.

I might never want to see it again, but I would encourage others to take a look.
