Dogtooth

Greek writer and director Giorgos Lanthimos delivered something different and original with this bizarre and perverse black comedy. A married couple have raised three teenage children in absolute seclusion from the outside world, even modified their behavior and psychology in bizarre and disturbing ways. While the story is a bizarre fantasy, it takes a scathing stab at home schooling and parental control gone amok. The film is rare gem which combines black comedy with cautionary morality tale beautifully realized and executed by Lanthimos and his talented talented cast and crew. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
