My brother saw a screening of this film a while ago, and he said it was the most insane mindfuck of a movie he had ever seen. It made him so physically ill and confused that he could not manage to fill out the feedback cards afterwards. Starring Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg, i've really begun looking forward to this movie.
This might be the return of a great movie director, so keep your antennas out for this one!

I always felt that Lars von Trier would be PERFECT for a horror film. And now we have one!
I hope it gets put out in the US soon...

I have a request
If you ever find yourself flipping through DVDs down there in Denmark, and you happen to come across Besat (from 1999), could you let me know? I've been looking for it for ages!

I'm glad to hear i'm not the only one.
As my brother described it, usually when you see a horror film its usually either built on mostly suspense with a little gore, or the other way around. This one just has it all to an insane level. It has that Lars Von Trier unpleasantness, combined with some extreme, yet un-funny gore. Also, the level of suspense is constant, making you feel like you have to shit yourself the entire movie.
And hey, Drunken Mastah, ill keep that one in the back of my head when i go DVD shopping.

i think von trier is a über-pretentious and self-absorbed megalomaniac and this is reflected in his movies. and don't say "oh but he's a genius and his movies are so good".
NO, they are not THAT good and he is NOT a genius.
it's not that i don't like experimental movies, because i most definitely do.
but i think a lot of von trier's stuff seem kinda forced, and i can picture him wanking furiously while writing another experimental "masterpiece".
dogville actually made me vomit in my mouth, and then images of von trier wanking his one inch penis flashed before my eyes.
no, i just don't like him and his movies.

It means utter shit, as shitty as shit gets. Trier is apparently deranged. From interviews the last years his depression has been obvious. Unfortunately it (unlike admired and dedicated Tarkovsky's) doesn't seem creatively productive. Please explain what qualities you see in this movie.

Well... It's a strange movie. It's not as sick as some japanese exploitation stuff, but considering the artsy audience that will see this, it's pretty far out. It's also extremely beautiful at times, visually stunning. I'm not sure what to think about Trier in general (He certainly made some shitty movies), but this is some of his best work alongside The Kingdom (Riget) IMO. I'd advice people to see for themselves, its worth your time even if you hate it.

Everyone should see The Kingdom by the way. Its scary and hilarious, and you will learn a lot about danish culture, including our relationship to Sweden, and how they often (and rightfully so, unfortunately) claim superiority to us.

Denmark is the world's greatest colonial power.
Riget is great but the humour's ultimately tributed to (the SWEDE) Ernst-Hugo Järegård. For the rest, it's a Twin Peaks CC. I like the new-take on Medea, the dreaminess and Tarkovskyesque aesthetics of Element of Crime. Europe is good but then again foremost thanks to Järegård. The 90's feminist melodramas all suck, Dogville revitalized minimal scenography and intelligent critique, though duller I found Manderlay even sharper. Direktören för det hele was funny. Antichrist is a work of a torn-apart depressant. Its aesthetics was beautiful, however unoriginal, stolen from Sokurov rather than Tarkovsky. Russians have filmed this way in almost fifty years, why the great impression now? Trier is a punk and should do punk movies.

''Having tortured her husband, Gainsbourg's madwoman then turns on herself, and, in the scene that so enraged the critics at Cannes earlier in the year, cuts off her clitoris with a pair of rusty scissors - all this in graphic, lingering detail.''

watched it last night. as expected, the cinematography and photography was absolutely beautiful, but the story was a little bit thin and the characters not all that interesting if i'm being honest, especially considering the fact they were the only two in the entire film (over 2 hours)
the violence was nowhere near as bad as made out, but it was VERY explicit... full on penetration (don't very artfully though, which is probably how it passed the censors uncut) and that masturbation scene was pretty much pornography, if it wasn't for those pretty trees in the background. only one scene had me cringing and that involved a penis and some blood... i'll save the rest for your imagination.
definitely not his best work and about a million miles away from riget, but still probably worth watching, if only for the visuals. i doubt i'll watch it again.

After pining it over for 24 hours, I have got to say that this was "quite good", despite the utterly retarded hype and focus on genital mutilation. That was 3 sec of the fucking movie for (anti)christ's sake. At any rate, the cinematography was fucking glorious, I liked how it was broken into chapters, I liked the acting and the minimal cast, i liked the tension that i felt during the majority of this. It was not over 2 hours though... it clocked in at about 1 hour 45 min... at least my version (it has the timecode on top, and the occasional "for promotion only". It didn't seem cut because I saw all the penetration and penor vag action...
At times he tried to do some Lynchian moments. Some he pulled off good, others not so well. Overall 8/10. Good psychological horror.
