Pesthauch der Menschlichkeit

After a long time I had a go at another extreme film for only the most persistent and perverted souls from the well-known director Marian Dora. Those who’ve had some experience with him know what to expect. This time, however, I am not completely satisfied. Dora's peak was Carcinoma, which to date is one of the greatest films of its type ever made, but it was also original, shocking in form and content. Unfortunately, this one didn't really grab me. It's about three characters, a dwarf, an old man and a young girl who take a trip to a lake in the countryside, it all starts innocently. They're all kind of mentally weird, eating various worms and small animals, and this thing goes on for almost 40 minutes, which I honestly didn't enjoy. In the second half, the movie goes into sexploitation where the dwarf gets horny and starts physically, mentally and sexually molesting the young girl, with the grandfather both watching and aiding and abetting. There's not much talking, there's maddeningly annoying music that keeps repeating and Dora focuses on feces rather than gore, and I don't like that either. There is no proper rape and the only thing worth mentioning is the final "Incarnation", a rape by branches, which is probably the craziest scene of the whole film. I found the baby animals impaled on the branches that flashed throughout the film quite perverse and disturbing. Dora is a twisted artist who has a very small fan base and his films are not watchable by a normal sane individual. Definitely a hard film to digest, but it didn't really hit my taste buds with its concept.
