Although I'll take your recommendations to heart, I have to completely disagree with your assesment of Begotten. While I do fall in line of the of people who believed it dragged on and on, I also found it's lack of story/dialogue/plot to be incredibly taxing. It's shot as an art film, and it has completely captured the cliche of being an art film. There is no point besides the producers own beliefs, which are never really described in the movie, but written somewhere in the box.
I didn't find it gruesome or disturbing, but rather comical. I watched the whole movie waiting for something to happen and it just never did.
