Thanatomorphose

Für mich fast ungenießbar. Keine Handlung, kaum Musik und Dialoge, dafür aber mit einer widerlichen Heldin, die trotzdem noch über sexuelles Verlangen verfügt, obwohl sie langsam verrottet. Glauben Sie mir, von diesem Mädchen würden Sie nicht angeheitert sein wollen! Besonders, wenn sie an ungewöhnlichen Orten "schwabbelt". (27.11.2013)

This is a very intense spectacle, where the moment you understand what the film is actually about, you're just waiting to see how ugly it's going to get. And it gets ugly. Here are scenes that can make your blood boil. It's simply about a man rotting alive. But it can also be taken as a very good metaphor. (10.07.2017)

In a couple of years people will speak about Thanatomorphose as that “disgusting cult movie where the protagonist rots alive”. It is extremely disgusting (really, you should think very well whether you want to see something like this), but, unlike the majority of similar fringe movies, this one wasn’t boring (even though its pace is very slow and hardly anyone speaks), and it also doesn’t feel cheap and gratuitous, it shows not only the physical decay, but also the mental and moral decay. It does have its issues, sure (which are quite loud at times), due mainly to its low budget, but overall it’s very (unpleasantly) impressive. (31.10.2013)
