The bizarre sex scenes are never erotic but at the same time there's a level of love to them. That stuff I won't ruin but all the hype you've read is certainly lived up to and von Trier takes on a new form of sexual violence that most people haven't seen. The atmosphere created by von Trier is extremely disturbing and this is before we get to any of the controversial stuff. I do feel disturbed, which is saying quite a bit considering some of the films I've seen in my life. Writing this minutes after finishing the film, my mind is still all over the place on what exactly it was that I watched.

This movie will certainly bring on debate and I'm sure it's going to bring on some strong feelings of hatred among those who see it but at the end of the day there's no doubt that the film will leave people thinking and questioning their own thoughts. You might love him or you might hate him but no matter how you feel you're going to be feeling something, which is a lot more than most directors could have said about their work. The other fifty would each have a different idea on the events in the film and that's probably why von Trier continues to be one of the most interesting directors out there. What the director was trying to say or do with this film is going to be in the mind of the viewer watching and I'm positive you could show this film to a hundred people and fifty would probably walk out. Three of the chapters deal with grief, pain and despair. This film has a prologue, an epilogue and four chapters in between. After the grief sets in the couple head off to a cabin in the woods to try and cure the wife from her state but once there things take a turn for the worse. Antichrist (2009) *** 1/2 (out of 4) Thought provoking but highly controversial film from von Trier has a husband (Willem Dafoe) and wife (Charlotte Gainsbourg) making love while their young son gets out of his crib and falls from a window to his death.
