Within the horror genre, there is one film whose notoriety extends into legend. Even if you have not seen the film, you damn well know about A Serbian Film. Banned in 46 countries, the 2010 feature is considered one of the most censored movies in history, and it is the basis for director Stephen Biro’s work, A Serbian Documentary. As opening text and voiceover lays the historical groundwork for Serbia, referring to it as a war-torn nation led by a government that crushes human rights. This serves as the inspiration for the ensuing film, with director Srđan Spasojević and co-writer Aleksandar Radivojević claiming that their intention was to reflect the feeling of being fucked from birth to death.
My review of A Serbian Documentary is now available to read at The Geek Show.
