#Flim antichrist full movie movie#

This is actually where Antichrist improves, as once the non sequitur of a credit sequence is out of the way, the movie takes its head out of its own ass and starts feeding us story in a manner more digestible. The prologue gets the back story out of the way, showing us the tragic death of their child, which is a striking visual despite the presentation boiling down to nothing but a duplicate of Jay ShermanвЂ™s student film from The Critic. It essentially sets the tone for the entire film a pretentious sack of drivel, delusional in its own psychological depth while in reality doing nothing but stringing together clichГ© after clichГ© to the ooohing and aaahing of no one but the Criterion Collection.

The opening pre-credits sequence for Antichrist feels like every art school student film ever made. A foreboding and nigh-supernatural atmosphere envelops them, as вЂњsheвЂќ proceeds to go positively bananas and вЂњheвЂќ finds his life falling into considerable jeopardy. After the tragic death of their infant child, a grieving father played by Willem Dafoe, and identified only as вЂњheвЂќ, joins his distraught wife played by Charlotte Gainsbourg, identified only as вЂњsheвЂќ (you can already tell what kinda film this is gonna be, canвЂ™t you?) and retreats to a cabin deep in the wilderness to work through their angst.
