Svidd neger

This is with out a doubt the sickest norwegian movie I`ve EVER seen. I mean that in a good way. This movie have a twisted sense of humor, and I love it!

A group of people in a farm in Norway does the sickest things you can only imagine. - One guy cuts one of his own fingers of. - A girl gives birth in the woods. - A negrow eats mushrooms every day.

You can't miss this one. If you have a twisted sense of humor, this is the movie for you!

I learned about this movie when checking the new releases of my favorite band, ULVER, who did the great score to this movie. When I learned, what "Svidd Neger" really means and that the movie was reported to the European Court of Human Rights in Hague, I imagined it would be some sort of shocking drama.

Nah...it's a comedy, or at least sort of!

It's hard to describe, what the movie is about at all, but a main topic are racial conflicts in Norway. The Characters are fairly strange, we have Karl, who is the king of his 10 acre fjord property and always dreams about his murdered wife. Anna, Karls daughter, who should have been a boy instead, likes to sing real tearjerker songs and is about to marry the next "prince" that drops in. On the other side of the fjord live Ante, a black who believes he's a mysterious "Sea Saami", his stepbrother Peder, who wanks till ...(you'll see), and their mother Ellen. In addition a Saami by the name of "Normann Hætta Bongo Utsi Saus" strikes a camp nearby. He's a real Peeping Tom and constantly gets calls from his mom. In the end, there's the black commander of some American Nato troops, who is desperately in need of a son.

So 1 1/2 hours full of promiscuity, gore and explosions unfold(actually the explosions are the highlights of this movie, always interesting to see, WHAT things are able to explode :) ).

The movie scores with both great soundtrack and the beautiful Norwegian landscapes. Yet the cut was done very roughly and the transitions between the scenes are lacking or poorly.

If you like mind-twisting avant-garde trash, you shouldn't miss this movie!

If you're tired of politically correct thrillers, chick flicks and endlessly boring dramas from Hollywood, this is the movie for you! A group of mostly drunk but always entertaining people living on a fjord in Norway go through a series of events that could only happen in the imagination of a hunchbacked orphan dope fiend. I'll skip the plot outline, as it has already been done; no outline could do this film justice. Don't bother trying to predict what will happen next; the only certainty while watching this movie is that the unexpected, the bizarre, the ridiculous and the absurd will always prevail. Did I see the ending coming? No, I didn't even attempt such lofty heights of madness. I just sat back with my girlfriend, the red-haired Irish queen of late night cinema, and enjoyed it.

Don't bother picking out a favorite character among the adulterous lapplanders, the wife-killing alcoholics, the lecherous older women, the semi-retarded oafs or the sex-starved nymphettes; every single character gets their whole world turned upside down and all around, somehow seeming to enjoy the process and have a completely optimistic view of the future as their houses burn, they chop pieces off themselves with axes, and deliver babies unaided on hillsides.

If you want something different and yet enjoyable, this is it. If you want pretentious art flicks or mainstream Hollywood, go somewhere else. This movie fits in between somewhere.

Svidd Neger aka Burned Negro is one flick I was pretty amped to check out.

When someone refers to it as somewhat like Pink Flamingos, and then mixed with that pretty damn un-pc title, it's almost must-see viewing. Well, I watched it, and I'm not sure how Pink Flamingo-y it is, but damn, this was a really good flick.

Story revolves around a drunk as hell, apparition seeing Dad and his daughter living alone in the north regions of Norway. Not far away and unbeknownst to the Dad and Daughter, there is another family with a mother, horny and fat son (who looks just like Francis in Pee Wee's Big Adventure), and adopted black son who all seem to live together in a not-so peaceful type way. Throw in a young man who's trying to escape his Saami ways, and you have a mish mash of personalities that result in all types of drama and humor.

This is a very, very good black comedy. It's been probably since Taxidermia that I've watched such black comedy in a flick.

The drunk Dad is a stand-out when he's seeing the ghosts. Usually a person would be terrified of a ghost, but not this guy. He gets angry, and it's really funny stuff. Throw in very good acting from all the actors, very silly moments, and some nudity and you've already got the ingredients for a very entertaining flick.

Svidd Neger, is a flick for definitely fans of foreign flicks like Taxidermia. And if you're a fan of black comedy mixed with bizarre silly humor, then you should be pleased as well.

I didn't know Norway had this type of cinema in them, but I'm very pleased to have found out. I knew about The Dudesons, but they may be Finnish....nevertheless our brothers to the way North have got some serious talent.

you shouldn't really see this one.

It's weird, maybe the weirdest ever to be made in Norway. But it got humour, edge, unique characters and many suprises (and a bunch of postmodern surrealism). You can never tell what happens next in this movie.

It is not the best movie I've seen this year, but it is absolutely a movie you'll remember. Kinda how The Evil Dead (1982) would look like if David Lynch and Stanley Kubrick had directed it.

If you want to see someone from the north of Norway behave silly you should really see this movie. I'll give it an eight.
