don't get too excited - the film is nearly impenetrable. The storyline is almost non-existant and there is no dialogue. It is a pretentious story told in a grainy, unfocused manner with long takes that make little or no sense.
It's sort of a tone poem that affects your psyche - it forces you to create the story. The terror all comes from how twisted and creative your own imagination can be. I loved it and feared it, but I can't think of more than 2 or 3 people here who would actually enjoy watching it.
That said- it fucked me up good.
