IFWT #72 - A Serbian Film (2010) [ Ft. Adam(@ajl__66) ]

Well, it’s finally come to this. In Film We Trust, formerly a podcast of repute and family friendly entertainment, is plunging the very depths of depravity and degradation. We’ve covered Taxidermia, Threads, Scum, the French Extremity Movement and even dedicated an entire month to examining the Video Nasty craze. But compared to the movie we’re covering today, these films barely even scratch the surface when it comes to disturbing content. This movie is on a whole other level of violence and bad taste. Or is it? If you haven’t guessed by now, or managed not to catch a glimpse of the title when you clicked on this episode, today we’re discussing A Serbian Film, a movie mentioned in hushed whispers throughout the world of entertainment. But does it deserve its ugly reputation? Has its content been blown out of proportion over the years? Is it meaningful commentary on the abuse of an entire country, or pretentious exploitation masquerading as social allegory? With the help of another guest, Adam, a.k.a., Loon of The Blind Dead (@ajl__66) we attempt to answer these questions, and examine a movie that so many have avoided. Join us, if you dare.
