Viewing Notes

Germany!

So amusing that the other Jason at IFS programmed a double feature of both Nekromantik movies was too irresistible to pass up. Despite the late start Friday evening.

Nice way to cross off this movie from my unseen list even tho I’ve owned a grey market dvd for ages. And it’s easily accessible via streaming now. My how things have changed for one of the more notorious extreme horror films.

Everything is quite entertaining in a gross out, dark comedy way (I’ve seen the infamous ejaculation scene a few times already) but the animal violence is unnecessary. I get why it’s in there but just doesn’t add anything.
