Das Verlangen der Maria D. & Pesthauch der Menschlichkeit

[Thorsten Hanisch]

Deutschlands berüchtigster Regisseur schlägt dieses Mal gleich im Doppelpack zu.

Mediabook mit beiden Filmen erscheint am 18. Dezember, also das ideale Weihnachtsgeschenk um der Verwandschaft die Kotze aus dem Gesicht zu treiben.

(sorry für die barsche Formulierung, aber ich hab gerade 2 Reviews gelesen und.....UUUUUUUARGH!)

EDIT:

Abartig und höchstwahrscheinlich strafrechtlich relevant. Einzig und allein gut dafür in einer merkwürdigen Film-Nerd-Runde den neuesten heftig-kranken Film gesehen zu haben.

Oh my, Marian Dora is back at it again with two new movies, both of which I saw back-to-back at the BUT Film Festival during their world premiere. We first watched Das Verlangen Der Maria D. which I honestly quite enjoyed, but then… then it was time for Pesthauch Der Menschlichkeit. Which would translate to Plague Of Humanity, and yeah, that sounds about right.

First of all, fuck this guy. The movie opens with a bunch of animal cruelty. Sure, “they’re just insects”, but still. It serves no purpose besides shock value and it’s just like, dude it’s 2020, we’re not doing this anymore. (According to the credits this was shot in 2017, but that makes no difference, obviously).

So, we follow three characters, they’re just on a journey through nature, I guess. An older man, a young girl and a little person. The man seems to be guiding them, documenting on what they’re doing , he’s the only one that speaks. But as the movie progresses, the little guy keeps getting more and more aggressive towards the girl, which climaxes in something close to rivalling the worst of Melancholie Der Engel. This movie is vile. It’s Dora at his best/worst. It’s a constant build-up to this absolutely despicable, depraved, disgusting… throw in a few more D’s of Dora and you get the picture. Not since Melancholie have I felt as uncomfortable during his work.

It’s much smaller in scale though, so don’t expect like a Melancholie follow-up. But in tone, yeah, pretty much. Pee poop gore cadavers, everything. Nihilistic, misogynistic, I felt bad and ugh walking out after the screening ended. Btw did I mention fuck this guy? Either he’s really good with editing and special effects or they actually fucked up this little piglet(s) towards the end. Like, that was fucked up, really, and how they intercut it with what’s happening to the girl, in combination with the music, the editing, oh my he sure know how to create this absolutely horrible, miserable, dismal (I’m just going through lists on synonyms.com by now, but it’s just hard to put to words this feeling he creates) atmosphere. But yeah, fuck this guy.

That’s about it for now, I guess. Bye.


Edit: Feel free to check out this video I made a little while back where I talk about all of Dora’s features up till these new ones, to get a little context to the man’s work if you’re not familiar!
