Antichrist (2009)

We’re doubling down this week on selections for our overarching year’s theme called “A DREARY YEAR OF LARS VON TRIER”. By the end of what is already a complete shithole year, we will have discussed a dozen movies by the dreary Danish auteur Lars von Trier. We’re now over halfway there. Today’s film discussion is one of his most notorious and amongst the smallest casts we’ve ever discussed for a movie. It only stars Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg (and somebody’s little German kid) as “He and She” who are struggling to cope with the loss of their child who crawled out the window while they were love tunneling. “He” decides to dedicate psychiatric techniques upon his wife and go out to a secluded cabin in the woods called Eden. It’s there when the nature of evil, and the evil of nature, unravel all around them. Hold onto your dicks and clits, folks. Von Trier’s psychological horror ‘ANTICHRIST” from 2009 lives up to its brutal reputation. Don’t mind the stillborn fawn and the fox eating itself. They will check up on us later. They say this was the talk of Cannes that year. When are we gonna get to go to Cannes? Do I gotta cum blood to get into a prestigious film festival or what?
