Taxidermia (2006). Existing somewhere between wonderful art-house and disgustingly demented brilliance, this offering from director Gyorgy Palfi was mere genius. Not for everyone, those with steel stomachs might come to love this wicked little tale which spans three generations, an adaptation to three pieces of popular Hungarian literature. The acting was more than solid. The camera work was splendid, and the direction was phenomenal. The vision of this work defies the imagination, with more than memorable images. How some of the more disgusting scenes came to be almost tolerable defies reality. Overall a wonderful time indeed for connoisseur of disturbing cinema. Merci beaucoup.
