The House that Jack Built

Just watched this movie
Lars did it again, another absolute KINO

I'm unironically thinking it might one of Lars' best films to this day, if not THE best.
The depiction of Hell is unparalleled in film.

Yes, that film is incredible.

Film was good as a dark comedy, and a self examination of the director.
The explanation of the high-pitched ringing in hell was genuinely creepy.

Has a great asf ending but I still like Dogville better. He's just a great director, like if you want mainstream art movies that have that cringe edginess to them and you don't want to go full lynchian, I think lvt's the man. Wish he'd finish kingdom hospital

>The explanation of the high-pitched ringing in hell was genuinely creepy.
can you remind me what it was?

I feel like this is one of those movies that will be considered a masterpiece in the future but won't really be appreciated now
kinda like a space odyssey

>tfw the immortal ferryman lays bare his utter revulsion for you, despite having been witness to all of the most heinous and depraved acts inflicted throughout time

First three quarters are a generic, slightly boring serial killer tale.
The last act is pure distilled kino tho

>generic, slightly boring serial killer tale
But it's so full of symbolism.

>if not THE best
its pretty good but come on

>MUH SYMBOLISM
doesn't make the story good. only serves as something pesuds can point out to make themselves look smart

No other depiction of a serial killer tears into said serial killer so shamelessly and gloriously though.

*blocks your path*

HIT THE ROAD JACK

Who would win a fight?

the dubsman was dead inside, jack was full of life

How gross and scary is this? Wanna watch it but im a pussy

Its not scary and the gore isn't too bad save for a couple shots. Man up.

A straight up fight? Bateman for sure. Jack only ever overpowers women and when he has the advantage in the situation (either through having the right tools or planning). He never kills a man with an axe (albeit a drunk man). That being said, I can definitely see a coked out Bateman being victimized by him.
Pretty much Dex vs Strength here.

Bateman might have the edge when it comes to my physicality but he’s an autistic brainlet.
Jack also has his luck superpower so he’ll come out on top no matter what.

>luck superpower
shit, I forgot about that, he literally CAN keep getting away with it

The SOUNDS of SOULS

Shit you never told me there were titties and babes in this movie, is it kino?

I wouldn't call it fapkino but there are a good few qts throughout

oh there are titties alright
so many they even hit your windshield

Honestly if he just made Dante's Inferno instead it would actually be even beter.

How do I into Von Trier?

Bateman has the edge in pure strength but one punch to the face and he'll freak out.

Be completely fucked in the head.

Start with Dancer in the Dark, it's his most accessible and one of his best. From there move on to Dogville, but make sure you're ready for one long kino. That one will introduce you to his depravity well. Once you're hooked on him, watch Antichrist. It'll be a shock to your system, but you'll be too endeared to him to look away. From there you can move on to Melancholia and the rest. Save Jack for last, though. You'll know why when you see it

it's so entertaining watching plebs ironically enjoy garbage films and call them kino

Why did it get low ratings from critics? Is it because it depicted hell in the Christian/Catholic sense and not the Jewish way?

str*ght wh*te m*le lead with no POCs in sight
also Lars has stated on the record that he's got nazi ancestry and isn't ashamed of that fact

Alrighty then, thanks user.

Don't forget how he "understood" Hitler. He claims that he is only where he is now was because his mother claimed he was Jewish. I believe he is the only Danish film director that does not have Jewish heritage

>he is the only Danish film director that does not have Jewish heritage

No wonder his films lack wit and finesse.

>dude it's like Dante's Inferno LMAO

>MUH STORY
Imagine watching film as a narrative medium

theres a graphic scene of him cutting a tit off
pretty nice

he did it?

billions of damned souls pained screaming in unison will sound like a high pitched ringing/screeching noise

Still waiting on that unrated version, fuckers promised us it in june.
