1999
Extreme/Short
This is
a movie in black and white with some very disturbing elements. It’s not very
long and I recommend turning the volume up a bit before watching it. There are
no opening credits but if there were they would have been silent. It take a
while until you realize that there’s actually sound! And once you realize it
and the film starts using it it’s very effective. There are some sequences
close to genius execution of sound/picture combinations.
The plot
revolves around a killer and his victim but it seem to be kind of voluntarily
that the victim agrees to being treated the way that he does. He does not fight
the aggressor and let’s himself get tortured in different ways. A central part
of the film is also a book titled Why God
Permits Evil or something similar in which the antagonist gets ideas for
his methods of torture. This is included in the DVD release by the way!
I don´t
want to get into too many details as it’s a short movie and I feel that some
should be left to be surprised or astonished at when watching the movie. But
even if I can’t be entirely sure it looks like that the violence is done for
real! I can’t think of any other way to express it but if I put it simply I
should plainly say that I love this!
8/10
