i cannot recommend this movie to people enough. i constantly tell people in person that they have to see this movie. you have to watch this movie. i want you to see this movie. if you have not seen dead leaves then you have to see it. dead leaves is the best thing i have ever watched and i am concerned that some of you have not seen it

IMDB
I happened to find this movie by accident doing a search on the German shocker "Nekromantik" on ebay. The storyline sounded interesting enough with elements of "Nekromantik" and "Buio Omega" and other sick, twisted films. As far as I am concerned, this movie was boring, zero atmosphere, decent acting, and way to artsy.
The movie plays very slowly and is only a 70 minute film. Nonetheless, it feels like 2 hours. The story goes nowhere and leads up to a conclusion that I could have guessed even before the opening credits rolled through. The acting was decent, but the actors weren't given many lines to work with. The music was sometimes good with opera here and there but then they would through in some terrible alternative rock music that just makes you want to gag and takes away from the movie. The one thing the movie had going for it was all the poetic narration. It added something original to the movie, but other than that, very disappointing. 4/10

that opinion is OK. at least he saw the movie. if you have not seen the movie then how can you have an opinion on it? you must see Dead Leaves.

i finally watched this a couple weeks ago from your recommendation and i have to say it fucking rocked. my friend and i simply sat in the dark, baked out of our minds, unable to say anything for the 50 minutes of madness that ensued. it doesn't matter that you really have no idea what is going on in the plot, the pure audio-visual assault is all that is required to enjoy the film.

you'd be surprised (or maybe not) at how many people i had to try the trailer on before i even found someone who would be willing to watch the whole thing with me.
