Taxidermia

Hungarian writer and director György Pálfi delivered one of the most disgusting films ever with this grotesque tale of three generations of men. The story starts with sexually starved WWII soldier who manages to impregnate the wife of his superior before getting killed. His son becomes an obese speed eater during the Communist era who becomes father to a taxidermist son that stays true to his genes. While admirable for its bravura of delivering a unique and disturbing tale, the film will shock and disgust anyone who dares to watch it. There's more than meets the eye in this visually dazzling and disturbing film which Pálfi points out in the three generations of the same gene that evolves from one generation to the next. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
