"Antichrist" is a delicate unfolding, with a final reveal of a uniquely unprogressive "truth": the fundamental evil of women. a friend suggested to me that this sexist stance was a commentary by Lars von Trier, who is appalled by frequent accusations of his "anti-women" portrayals; therefore, he is the "antichrist" (as if to say: "you want an antichrist, i'll give you an antichrist"). regardless the reason, the debasement of the ideal of women makes for an unexpected loud answer to a film of quiet mystery. if you choose to look in on this world, beware of graphic, unforgetable violence.

The Seventh Continent (1989)
“The Seventh Continent” does not show torture, blood, or physical violence, and yet its culmination of a family’s descent into final despondency is highly disturbing. the film is a listing of processes – a piling of daily actions that oppresses and destroys their will to continue. take care of yourself on the journey of this brilliant film; its poignant message against bourgeois society is not as important as you.
