Post misery porn movies. Bonus point if its Eurokino
>>221850510First wank kino
Misery porn to the point of absurdum. And I maintain that this is in fact a pitch black comedy, and an intentional one.
>>221850510
The ending alone BTFO's 99% of misery porn movies in sheer cosmic despair.
>>221850510German anthology movie about suicide throughout a week. One suicide per day.
>>221850510>>221850606>>221850994New French Extremity is amazing lmao
>>221853009Most kino genre of horror. I fucking love horror with zero trace of humor or campiness. Would recommend High Tension and Inside too.
>>221853009>>221852813Is pic rel worth a watch? it caught my eyes
>>221854131Yes, though it's not really a narrative-driven film. It falls more in the "AHHHHH, I'M GOING FUCKING NUTS!!!" category of psychological movies. The plot is very bare-bones - a foreigner travels to the post-collapse eastern bloc and falls in love with a hooker, but he simply has no chance of 'saving' her, and he goes nuts.
>>221850510I think the name was Biutiful or some shit, with Javier Bardem
the Red Riding trilogy is british misery especially the second part
>>221853868The head scene in HT is genuinely sickening. Whole film is worth it for that alone.
>>221856014For me it's also the buzzsaw scene at the end. Just pure unrelenting terror.
>>221854131It's a hard sell, it's more of an arthouse movie than anything.
>>221850510What is Gaspar's problem?
>>221856310He grew up under Videlas brutal regime in the 70s, did a bunch of datura, the French are also a deeply unpleasant people which probably had an affect on him.
>>221856310He grew up watching Taxi Driver and Salo.
>>221856456>did a bunch of daturaThat explains literally everything. Had no idea France or any other country for the matter had a datura scene. I thought that drug was universally considered a nightmare.
>>221856456He has demonic energy.
>>221857226Noe has made some of the most humanist films ever, especially Climax, just all the way diving into the human experience, highest highs and lowest lows.
>>221857341>noe>humanistm8 his claim to fame is a brutal 15 minute long rape scene. He's obviously a misanthropic degenerate.>humanity at its lowest lows.This is always just a cheap excuse to show anything disgusting or disturbing.
>>221857672You sound like a pussy.
>>221850510 (OP)pic related is just endless misery slop against nukes>>221853009>>221853868that's not a genre, there's only like 5 completely unrelated movies in there. it's just something some no name journalist said one time that other academics ran with, my guess is probably because that stuff was coming out around the same time as american "torture porn" and they were ashamed of being associated with it and they wanted to justify their tenurei'm a big retarded gaspar noe fanboy for example and he's never given it any credence. and why would he? none of those filmmakers came from the same circles or anything and they clearly have very different aims. high tension for example is just a dumb slasher with a dumb twist (but does feature a good muse song). comparing it to actual art like irreversible is an insult. but call it "new french extremity" and watch the pseuds flock as if it's now somehow elevated material>>221857226no he doesn't bitch, his material clearly indicates he loves life and has a keen appreciation for true beauty, he just recognizes how horrible it often ends up and thus most of his stuff functions as a cautionary tale, or in the case of vortex, an intimate exploration of a horrible unavoidable, unreconcilable suffering
>>221858015NFE is a cinematic movement, stupid. Nobody said it was a genre.
>>221857341Humanists can be in the service of Lucifer.
>>221858087yeah, lots of people do, like one of the people i replied to >>221853868it's also not a "movement" which implies some unification between its key filmmakers. it's nothing, solely academic/journalistic masturbation
>>221858015"loves life" "true beauty"Retarded fag values.
>>221858139Oh man this guy isn't too bright. I'm praying for you, buddy.
>>221858015Irreversible is exploitation trash, the cinematic equivalent of goatse. I can't image how much of a pretentious fag someone has to be to call it "art".
>>221856310I Stand Alone actually has a happy ending though
>>221858196i'd love to hear anything of substance you have in the tank rather than a petty insult and passive-aggressive presumably insincere religiosity which makes you seem like a real dumb fuck, but okay buddy, you too>>221858225>Irreversible is exploitation trash, the cinematic equivalent of goatsethat's absolutely retarded bait and not worth entertaining>I can't image how much of a pretentious fag someone has to be to call it "art"you can't image it? me neither. it certainly has exploitative factors, but ultimately it's a reflection on time, chance, choices, and a generally sadly sick world. if you think it's just "exploitation trash" you haven't seen many exploitation flicks, or probably much in general.
>>221858421Lmao.
