Blog Session 4: THEMED POST (Movies)

Almost every people get shocked when I explain to them that my favorite kinds of movies are the horror and exploitation ones, they think that I love death, bloodbaths and destruction. But what I really love about these films is the criticism of society that they express, through an exaggerated image of social taboos, black humor, and the metaphoric reflection of human weakness. My favorite movies of this category are the Italian film Cannibal Holocaust directed by Ruggero Deodato, which shows us the story of four documentary-makers that abused from indigenous people in order to obtain modified images to be able to sell them easily to the audience. The crew, in a dangerous trip to the jungle, got lost and were searched by an anthropologist. And Nekromantik 2, a German film directed by Jorg Buttgereit (maybe my favorite movie director of all times), who is maybe the first one to show us explicitly a story about necrophilia and love. It contains really shocking images but I suggest you to see it because this movie really achieves a great ambience and story.
