A martfüi rém

What a surprise! 9+, this movie is well scripted. sex is Not gratuitous, as each scenes reinforce the whole. better then Hannibal or se7en as it feel real and complicate , lots of psychological revelations by the end, what a great Film.

Set in the 60s. It's a true story of a Hungarian serial killer and the case for finding him. Some is so sad because he seems to be killing some girls who consider him a friend. This one is very well done. Loved it.

Quite a find, this one, shown apparently at the London Film Festival last year, this seems not to have had a theatrical release, outside Hungary. Bleak and disturbing, this is an uncompromising look at what we are told is a true story going back to the late 50s/early60s. There is some attempt to set this horror within the political upsets of the time but I have to say, at least to an outsider, these seem rather unconvincing. Not so the main thrust of this daring film, however, which certainly visits areas not often visited in tales of brutal serial killers. The film begins with great style and carefully composed scenes and ends similarly with beautiful period vehicles and street posters, the rest of the film though is not pretty at all and the harrowing tale is realistically told in dark and subdued lighting with nothing too pretty at all. Very impressive but not an easy watch.

Difficult to watch, but excellent portrait of an era where denial was the best crime policy.

Some scenes are gruesome and disturbing, but crime, specially, serial crime is not glamorous.

Because I think , that is the first Hungarian film I've ever watched ! Definitely , well made : really makes you feel , how claustrophobic and vulnerable people were in this particular time and place .
