Sickest movie ever made?

A Serbian Film (2010)

Ok I think this will be a longer review as this movie sure was thought provoking, among other things. Also I might go into some details in some of the scenes, but it's not going to spoil anything as I won't go in to the plot details that much. It surprisingly did have a plot and not even a bad one. And anyways what ever I tell you about the scenes are nothing compared to if you ever see it for yourself. So first of all the movie is about a male porn star who is offered a huge pay on a new movie which he can't get any details about. The movie they make starts to get weirder and sicker each scene until things start to get seriously fucked up (no pun intended). First I have to go into the biggest thought this movie provoked in me, which is what is enough? I mean I understand that the average Joe in a theatre eating popcorn and giggling at the leather faced man chopping up women with his chainsaw needs a bit more than just a bucket of blood and guts to get him gagging up his popcorn. But is it really necessary to show the sickest things imaginable to get someone's attention? Wouldn't just a hint towards them be enough? At least the makers of this movie thought not. I sure as hell could have lived my life happily ever after without seeing a woman giving birth to a child only to have the infant raped by a big bald man. Or a woman to get her teeth knocked out and then suffocated with a penis. You get the point, this movie is hardcore sick. Way too sick for me. And that's where the movie fails. Most of the times just hinting on sick stuff makes them work a lot better than actually showing them as your imagination will mess your head. Even though I've seen some sick movies in the past, I really felt dirty after seeing this. Like I shouldn't have seen it. But unfortunately nowadays where all your senses are pounded with a hammer to get your attention these kind of movies will pop up from time to time. And they are aimed for the crowd who think nothing's enough. But this was not just exploitation, like I said this movie does have a plot and it's actually a pretty good one. The music was kinda annoying at parts as it was loud all the time. Again hammering your senses. Hats off for the actors in this one as I'm sure this wasn't an easy movie to act in. This movie can't be categorized and that's actually a good thing. Sure it had a bit of suspense in it but apart from being afraid of what sick thing is shown next, the scariest thing about this movie was the thought that there actually might be people out there who are in the market of the kind of material the characters in this movie are making. Without a few way too messed up scenes and with a bit less exploitative narration this movie would have been actually quite brilliant, but now I never want to see it again. Though after the initial shock right after seeing it, I'm kinda glad I did see it as it really gave me a good reference of what's enough. 60 percent for the story and the thoughts this movie provoked.
