Before I saw this movie, I'd heard all about how messed up it is. Don't know what ultimately made me watch it, but I did. Gotta say, I was impressed in a lot of ways. The cinematography is beautiful, the sound design and direction are great, the acting is perfect, and I always artistic style in movies like this, and the plot was pretty good. But don't get me pretty there were some parts I didn't like, hence the sex and violence. The sex gets to be a bit to graphic. I'll about I've never seen real sex between actors in a movie, and I don't need to see it again. The violence, while it's not super frequent, is downright painful to watch, and not in a good way. There's a threshold through which I can stand violence, and Antichrist most definitely crosses that threshold because of how painful it is. Is it a good movie? I'd say so. Will I ever watch it again? Most likely not.
