Nekromantik

     Wow, what can one say about Nekromantik? Being a cult movie master, I thought I had seen it all... I was so DEAD wrong. Nekromantik is a story about a little German guy with an unpronounceable name who has a job as part of a cleanup crew for grisly car accidents. 

      One day he happens upon a very very rotted corpse in a ditch and brings a piece of his job home to his necrophiliac girlfriend as a "gift". They proceed to have repeated intercourse with it until the little German guy gets fired from his job and his girlfriend decides that he can no longer provide her with fresh (or not-so-fresh) playthings, so she runs off with their "new friend". 

     Unable to cope with his girlfriend's betrayal, he seeks to satisfy his carnal pleasures among impatient but creative prostitutes, only to find that he cannot achieve any pleasure at all... at least with anything alive. For a cheap foreign horror film, the acting is actually not that bad, and for those who crave shock value, this is definitely the movie for you.  I actually found this movie to be oddly very artistic and had a surprisingly cool original soundtrack.  It isn't for everyone, but what is?  I personally loved it.
