A Serbian Film - Terror sem Limites

Im speechless about this movies. if you are a heavyweight twisted , horror extreme movie fan then this one will blow you off. I have seen some heavy ones but nothing compared to this one. I don't recommend it to anybody. This movie is between the limits of art and twisted mind perversion. You should be aware with whom you watch it, and definitely NOT recommended for kids , i would even say now even for young adults. i hope i will never hit the cinemas. I only recommend this movie for really movie addicts who can might see the good side out of it.There is nothing more to write about it. it went beyond of what i can call a movie. ....... extreme sex contend with extreme violence.

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.

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.

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.

I have never had such a hard time on knowing how to sum up a film. I just cannot really say what is appropriate. To my shock, I actually watched the edited version. Let's start off in order shall we...

In the film's first half one can clearly see that this is a well-made film. It has good cinematography, great music, some actually good acting. It isn't one of those soft and completely mediocre horror films (as in The Roommate or The Stepfather). So by the first half I was actually really invested in the film. It has a very intriguing plot that did bring up good questions. Then the baby rape happened. This is definitely the most disturbing scene in the film and the most shocking I have ever seen. Heck, I watched the edited version which means we don't ACTUALLY see it. But you know what I usually want to see films uncut... but I honestly can't imagine how that scene could affect me more. Which means the film did its job. It actually disturbed me, and that RARELY happens. In fact, I can't remember any film that truly shocked me the way this film did. So yeah, it was effective. Maybe because it was the first truly explicit scene.

The film's actual problems came after that. The editing began to resemble that of a Saw film and because explicit scenes began to occur more and more they made less of an impact. The ending, although still pretty sick and disturbing, didn't have half the effect the first really explicit scenes had (the baby rape and the first torture rape of the protagonist).

Overall, I do want to say that the film did too much in its 2nd half and because of that wasn't as disturbing as it was before, and there was really not that great of a narrative in the 2nd half. But I do think this film shows the amount of content people will be willing to watch and the extreme measures cinema can go to. Yet I can't say I can recommend it to be honest, or even say that it's a GOOD film. But that wasn't the point. It WAS a hard-hitting film many times and is definitely effective. But I do think there's a difference in this and what many people say is so sick The human Centipede. This definitely shows that The human Centipede is nowhere near as shocking as this. While this film may have more going for it in its content than that, The Human Centipede remains a better film, if not only because it resembles an actual film and is something that CAN be watched as a regular film, and also because I found it better executed at the end of the day in its narrative. A Serbian Film may not work even as the sickest entertainment there is simply because it really IS too disturbing, BUT it is definitely an act that brings up debate and for that it was effective. Granted, I probably won't ever see it again or even recommend it.
