Review: Criterion's 'Antichrist' Blu-Ray

Posted: 04 Nov 2010 02:05 PM PDT

While Danish director Lars von Triers films dwell outside the mainstream realm, the topics he explores are as commonplace as they come. Its his stance on these matters that challenges the viewer, causing them to see things from a viewpoint that is both so ugly and far removed from traditional thinking that it becomes almost as alien as it is difficult to comprehend. Antichrist, the autuers latest, follows this formula closely, yet also has the distinction of overloading those who dare watch the now infamous film youve seen worse, trust me with so many gloomy viewpoints and surreal images that the film could, and has, appeared to some as being about nothing. In a way, it is; the state of despair and madness that She (Charlotte Gainsbourg) exists in is so deep that her depression is nothingness, an emotional state where the darkness is so consuming that nobody can relate to where she is mentally or physically.
