Ein Serbischer Film

I will just right off the bat state that you, quite simply, cannot unwatch this movie. It's important that everyone realizes that there is no unringing this bell. You will almost certainly wish you could unsee it, and if not or worse, you enjoyed it, you need to be on a government list available to the public. It goes from shady, to dark, to disturbing, to depraved. But then it gets so far beyond that that you may actually find yourself trying to turn it off only to realize it's too late and you forever know what happened in the.. climax... (surely there has to be a better word). Since 2013 when I saw it, I've become a father and eventual single parent to a son. I couldn't imagine seeing this again.

I will say though, that if you are someone who likes really pushing your comfort level and challenging your psyche with incredibly difficult material, then this should be on your list, because after you survive this, you can watch slightly less disturbing, but far better films with the knowledge that at least what you're watching isn't A Serbian Film. In all seriousness, the absolute summit of Mt Heinous here is one of those things that is so horrible we collectively just do not ever think about it for the sake of our own wellbeing. I said on a reddit post that knowing the name of this movie is a legitimate infohazard. I believe that is a completely true statement.

Best of luck if you dare take this film on. I wish I could unsee it, but I also know that I can handle any other work of fiction for having been naively self-inflicted with this... thing.

I liked that I didn't know what was going to happen until the very end. The film presents and gathers together the vile films that a normal person would not watch. I wouldn't recommend it to people who don't exactly want such perversions because it would be traumatic. I also like the development of the several intertwining plots at the same time. This conveys credibility to the story itself, which brings the viewer even more into the story of the main character. This movie mixes sadness and anger in one. At the end of the film, the person watching is confused whether he should be sad for the characters or angry because of all the bad things that have happened and there is a sense of injustice.

Controversial, graphic, violent, unsettling, disturbing, devastating & disgusting but an underrated cinema nonetheless that dares to explore the darkest side of adult industry, there's no denying that A Serbian Film is destined to upset majority of viewers with its gross, sickening & utterly discomforting subject matter which is exactly its motive but looking beyond its on- screen depiction of every taboo, it's also a pretty bold piece of filmmaking.

Set in Serbia, the film tells the story of Milos; a well-past-his-prime porn star who's happily married & has a son but the family is going through financial difficulties. Contacted by one of his former colleagues who has a job offer for him, Milos is introduced to the new director & finally agrees to participate in an "art film" only to discover that he's been drafted into making a pedophilia & necrophilia themed snuff film.

Brilliantly directed, fairly performed, effectively paced, superbly handling the elements of suspense & featuring many deeply disturbing sequences from start to finish, A Serbian Film is certainly not for the faint-hearted or the easily distressed or even a completely normal human being plus its so-called political allegory is nothing but an excuse to justify the pervertedness depicted here as the only reason why this film exists is to shock the viewers in the name of art.

Yet, a story like this needed to surface on the screen not because it has a motive but because it represents a far darker side of world which most people choose to ignore, despite being aware of its existence. On an overall scale, A Serbian Film is an extremely unnerving story about porn industry but is definitely not porn plus it isn't afraid to jump deep into the abyss & bring everything to the surface, which it manages to do in an unflinching manner.

Yes it's going to leave you emotionally scarred & No, you don't have to watch it just for the sake of it. Make your mind multiple times before you hit the play button and for those who think they can handle this stuff, just when you'll be thinking that this sadistic experience is finally over & you're almost out of this dark tunnel, the final line just before the end credits will do enough damage to break all hell loose. Watch it at your own risk.

An ageing porn star is given a chance to do something a little different, a movie that will take him in a whole new direction.

I was warned, I was warned by people who will probably read this review, I said I'd post it after watching it.

Initially there are a few interesting moments, and a few scenes where you're think you're in for something good, sadly as it progresses, all that is wiped, and lost in among a slurry of blood and gore. It simply goes too far, there were some decent ideas, but the realisation was just loathsome.

I wish I hadn't watched it, this has overtaken The Human Centipede as the movie I wish I could unsee. I am struggling to agree with those that class this as an art film, that's a joke, it's purely a sick fest, a movie about exploitation and depravity of the highest order.

I ordered this on dvd, I genuinely plan of chucking the disc at the bottom of a skip, in the hope that nobody picks it up and tries to watch it.

Detestable.

1/10.

I heard about this movie on YouTube it was someone saying don't watch it it's made to disturb you but I didn't listen and I feel like vomiting now please do not watch this just don't I'm literally crying right now.
