Described as the...


"Most Shocking Film in the history of the Cannes Film Festival" Antichrist directed by Lars Von Trier is invoking a variety of emotions amongst critics and viewers alike. According to Jeff Leins with News In Film, "The foundation of the film is a deep-seeded hatred towards women, a misogynistic retelling of Adam and Eve. Trier, through Dafoe, refers to nature as “Satan’s church” and She is the depraved product of this evil. Her corruption harmed their innocent, angelic son"...
Based off the trailer and Lein's review, the film looks visually amazing and sounds surreal and completely disturbing. To me the trailer sort of portrays the feel of vintage 70s satanic horror films such as Rosemary's Baby or The Omen....which isn't necessarily a bad thing right??? Antichrist will be out on limited release on October 23rd.
