I admire and detest this film at the same time. And I will never watch it again.

In its histrionic dream logic, the movie says as much about Eastern Europe as Twilight does about the Pacific Northwest. Frankly, you'd be better off self-abusing.

"A Serbian Film" revels in its sheer inventive awfulness and dares the viewer to find a more serious layer of meaning.

A sordid welter of sexual sadism, incestuous necrophilia and 'snuff movie' nihilism.
