A German teen teetering on the brink of sanity has been doing casual drugs and soon experiences mental wtfery of the time-bending sort.

It all starts when she sees some deformed fetuses earlier in the day and a version of one of them soon plonks itself in front of her refrigerator, before setting up base in her room. Guess it’s a good thing she hadn’t seen some of the movies on here instead of just a deformed fetus.

Fantastic film depicting the horrors of mental illness. Excellent story and special effects. I love the song “Grey Sedan” by Wild Style Lion featuring Kim Gordon that plays over the closing credits. I really like this film. 5 stars.

Another outstanding German film that deals with mental illness is “The White Sound” (2001) starring Daniel Bruhl and directed by Hans Weingartner, his directorial debut. I searched for years online to find a version with English subtitles and finally found one on You Tube on the Zac Waddington channel (the channel has a picture of a purple smurf). Hans Weingartner has made 5 other movies with mental illness as the focus and I can’t find any of them online or even to buy. One of his films that I am dying to see is called “Hut in the Woods” (German title “Die Summe meiner einzelnen Teile”) (2011).

Hey admin
You wrote the best movie comment of all time!
“Guess it’s a good thing she hadn’t
seen some of the movies on here
instead of just a deformed fetus.”

I’ll bet your viewers are thinking,
after 5 years, EUM (born Eamonn Caleb Javier)
must be rolling in the cash, so how
do I get myself some of that cash?
(hint: by writing movie reviews)

(trans How to Write a Movie Review Like a Pro)

1. Common Movie Review Mistakes To Avoid

Avoid writing in the 1st person:
“I like the movie a lot”
“I admired the lead character”
Avoid general statements:
“a fantastic movie”
“beautiful set”
“excellent acting”

2. Useful Tips You Should Consider

Watch the film at least two times
Watch the movie not as a moviegoer
but with an analytic mindset of a
pro movie reviewer

That’s all you need to start you on
the road to a fast paced, glamorous, high
paying world of writing movie reviews!
Zorte on!
(trans Good luck!)

I am writing you from germany and i have to say that in the land of great directors like Joerg Buttgereit or Helge Schneider and FX “professionals” like Olaf Ittenbach and this guy called Schnaas it takes a lot more than some foetus video watch app to “catch” a psychosis.
If you want to loose your mind just visit an average german techno party.
That should do the trick. 😀
