The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.
The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.
This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.
If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.
IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

Plot – Spoilers:
Angst is one of those movies you look at the year it was made in, 1983, and take in a sharp breath because apart from the obvious things – the clothes, hairstyles, cars and tone of the film – everything about it seems so current. Unfortunately for us, Director Gerald Kargl didn’t make another film after this.
It begins with a man holding a gun walking down a street with purpose in his face but not in his legs as he tries to enter several homes before eventually finding an open gate. He shoots the old lady who answers the door and is subsequently arrested. Through a series of vintage photos we discover a childhood of abuse and trauma and pick up a little later when he’s released from prison.
Earlier, when asked his motives for murdering the old woman, he replied, “I only had this feeling, that something needs to happen.” This brilliantly eerie single line encapsulates the acts that follow his release.
Angst was based on Austrian serial killer Werner Kniesek whose versions of the killings were more drawn out and elaborate.
This is a movie riddled with fascinating shots and camera trickery but is also memorable for Erwin Leder’s performance – him crawling while clutching on to the girl rather than dragging her is one that stood out for me.
Very good movie! Based on the story of the Austrian Massmurder Werner Kniesek. Heavily underrated!
let’s be honest – the dog was the real star of the movie. the girl’s death scene was pretty cool.
movie fucking sucked wtf why do yall fw the gayest shit movies on here buncha faggots
Excellent film. I saw this a long time before I knew about EUM. Watching films you haven’t seen in a long time is almost like watching a film you’ve never seen. I liked it back then and I like it now. 4 stars.
what the dog doin ?
my favourite ever ever ever. the camera is alive!!! so gorgeous with the blue hues i love you kargl i love you leder. so realistic and disturbing it means so much to me
Don’t forget to make some hot dogs to eat while watching this
10/10
so beautiful and cool!!! a new favourite!! erwin leder is handsome in this
This is one i think about often. Great movie
Holy molyyyyy
This film is as effed up as any I’ve seen in a while….in very good way! Leder is excellent in the lead role. Ahhh, poor Man, things don’t always go as well as we imagine. Favorite scene: the trunk. LMFAO.
My favorite
THIS SHIT ROCKS LIKE VOMIT!!!! 4.2/5
As has been said by others and Admin, the camera angles and close ups of the serial killers face is cinematography at its finest. This and the near absence of dialogue, relying on the killers inner monologue, draw you into the film and put you into the mind of the killer. The lead actor giving a brilliant performance as the deranged killer. A great film, 4.5/5 pairs of false teeth.
Showed compulsion towards murder is like a drug addicted person or a person pursuing sex, penetrative, exhausting, and euphoric. The unnamed murderer’s German accent is subliminally out of place because the setting is in Austria. His more rigid German becomes Viennese when talking with the gentlemen outside the gas station-café, helps establish that the inner dialogue is in fact a madman putting on a mask to fit in
Most disturbing thing about the movie is the sausage eating scene.. so disgusting, close-up, loud open-mouth chewing. It ruins the whole movie.
absolute
The dog tho lol. Worth watching, his thoughts are primarily dictated into a well-executed script, and you almost feel emotionally drawn to his patheticism regarding societal dysfunctions.
this is the epitome
dis is good! fuck ytou
great movie 10/10
Absolutely beautiful cinematography! ♥
before watching recommendation! (no spoilers)
this upload is the international cut which i strongly think is worse than the director’s cut. the biggest difference is this has extra 7min 40sec prologue in the beginning. to get the better director’s cut “true” experience skip to 7:40 where you blue and black credits start the movie.
Fantastic picture.
And for 1983 miles ahead of its time.. wonderful camera work and quite believable scenes. Just goes to show Euro cinema has and will always be miles ahead of USA and UK film making .
By absolute Grosse miles !
Lighting is this so damn engrossing
Awesome Flick.
I would love to see something so extreme and putrid made in today’s world.
Not the best film I have seen but not the worst either. The highlight was the dog following the guy around, it was almost comical. I almost felt sorry for him and all the work he did to load the bodies into the trunk of the car only to come unstuck by going to that cafe. Not a really effed up film but it had its moments and I quite liked it. Cheers.
Saw this on youtube a while ago, but it did not include the intro. Great film and genuinely scary. I read the director had trouble getting this distributed due to the disturbing content, and perhaps because it was ‘based on true events’ that happened not so long before it was made.
