Plot/Synopsis:

The “theatre effect” is often the sign of primitivism in film drama — except when it’s Orson Welles or Federico Fellini.

Satyricon’s sets are spectacular, neo-modernist constructions that combine pictographic art of the past with the angular sensibility of the present. Characters declaim their lines to phantoms beyond the screen or to decadent aristocrats in the burlesques that are frequently featured within the playhouses, feasts, tombs, temples and the other venues that carry the action of this mythical adventure.

‘In Satyricon, I was influenced by the look of frescoes. At the end, these people, whose lives were so real to them, are now only crumbling frescoes.’(Fellini)

Synopsis :

The film begins with the “hero” Encolpio monologuing in front of a fresco, bemoaning his fate.

Encolpio: student, pretty boy bisexual adventurer, and creature of fortune whose present misery is due to the theft of his boy lover Gitone by his friend and fellow student, Ascylitus. We are also introduced to Ascylitus by way of a monologue and quickly learn that he’s no sentimentalist.

Telescoping the narrative within itself, Fellini inserts myths and antic stories like The Matron of Ephesus ( a beautiful widow) or The Minotaur.

Synopsis :
Two brothers, part of a border-recognition treaty detachment after a very long war, confront and deal with the wartime acts of brutality and violence of the older brother. The older brother has been part of this war for 25 years; the younger brother has been studying to become a professor and has been comparatively sheltered from the horrors. The younger brother comes face to face with his older brother’s moral deterioration, and, disturbed by the older brother’s acts of war, eventually persuades (and forces) the older brother to completely atone for those actions. The amount of spookiness achieved with no special effects other than blood, is truly remarkable, and a lesson for Hollywood. And in the end, the viewer is left with an uncertainty as to who must pay for sins, and why, and whether anyone, ever, is truly innocent.

Alice (1988)

Original title: Neco z Alenky
Year: 1988
Runtime: 1 hour, 33 minutes
Country: Czech Republic | Switzerland
Language: English Voiceover by Camilla Power
Subtitles: None.
Genre: Animation | Fantasy | Horror

Director: Jan Svankmajer

Cast: Kristýna Kohoutová

Plot/Synopsis:

Alice (Neco z Alenky) is a 1988 Czech surreal fantasy adventure film by Jan Švankmajer. It retells Lewis Carroll’s first ‘Alice’ book, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, in Svankmajer’s unique style. The film combines live action with stop motion animation.

Alice trapped inside a dollhouse after growing too large to escape.
The visuals are often described as grotesque, perverse, or disturbing, but overall not repulsive. Prominent is the stuffed white rabbit, whose chest is constantly leaking so that he has to keep eating sawdust, and various animated skulls and slabs of raw meat products. As mentioned previously, many of the animated characters are made of surprising household objects. There are a number of visual puns. Scissors and knives are also recurring themes.

The film also intermittently features a jarring device in which a close-up of Alice’s lips appears to deliver narrative sentences describing speech or thoughts, such as “said the White Rabbit”. This occurs frequently throughout the picture. It is considered by some both irritating and indicative of some of Svankmajer’s weaker didactic tendencies.

Little Otik (2000)

Original title: Otesánek
Year: 2000
Runtime: 2 hours, 18 minutes
Country: Czech Republic
Language: Czech
Subtitles: English (hard-subbed)
Genre: Animation / Fantasy / Horror

Director: Jan Svankmajer

Cast: Veronika Zilková, Jan Hartl, Jaroslava Kretschmerová, Pavel Nový, Kristina Adamcová, Dagmar Stríbrná

Plot/Synopsis:

This is Svankmejer’s fourth feature film to date (though to include his shorter pieces the number is closer to thirty – many of which remain banned inside of his own country) and those familiar with the Czech arch-surrealists work will know what to expect.

In Otesánek, which is based on an Eastern European fairy tale, a childless and hopelessly infertile couple, Karel and Bozena buy a property in the countryside and whilst working in the garden Karel unearths an oddly shaped tree stump. With a little attention, he fashions the stump into a near human form and presents it to his melancholy wife. To his horror, she is delighted with the gift and takes to treating it as her own son.

Driven to distraction by her desire for a child, Bozena feigns pregnancy with the aid of nine numbered cushions of increasing size and the ‘child’ is eventually brought back to their town house. This is much to the protest of Karel – who fears that neighbours and colleagues will think the woman and himself insane and begins to regret creating the object. ‘Little Otik’, as the stump is named, comes to life – much to the further horror and disbelief of Karel who walks in on his wife suckling the stump, and begins to behave like a human baby. A very hungry human baby – as a few of the building’s residents and visitors discover in an unpleasant manner…

All the Svankmejer trademarks are here, the exaggerated sound effects, close-ups and obsessions with food and the process of eating, tongues, eyeballs, teeth and a precocious little girl in the form of Alzbetka who knows just how to deal with dirty old men.

Sexykiller (2008)

IMDb URL: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1056416/

Plot: The plot for Sexy Killer (Sexykiller, morirás por ella) revolves around a young woman named Barbra who is easily irritated, which leads to many body’s piling up at the George R. Romero medical school which she attends. It is established in the film’s opening sequence just how psychotic the Barbra character is. The film opens with a scene where the roving camera’s eye scan’s around a girl’s locker room as the ladies of the academy are getting dressed. Humor plays an integral part in the film and during this opening scene is one of many references to other films, most notably Wes Craven’s Scream. In this opening scene there is a killer wearing the same attire as is worn by the killer in Scream.
