Norbert Pfaffenbichler's 2551 Trilogy
-
£46.00
An epic post-apocalyptic mix of sci-fi / horror / monster action, avant-garde cinema, political nightmare and silent cinema techniques.
Imagine Mad Max run amok in the Mütter Museum: a nightmarish subterranean world of superstition, magic and deformity, ruled by fear and oppression - and "peopled" with a spine-chilling assortment of mutants and masked monstrosities including faceless stormtroopers, parasites, nude figures, taxidermied monkeys, alchemists and other occult horrors. Welcome to the unearthly visions of Austrian artist and director Norbert Pfaffenbichler's "2551 Trilogy," a staggering combination of avant garde cinema, post-apocalyptic sci-fi / horror / monster action, dystopian political nightmare, silent cinema techniques (all 3 features are told without dialogue, with different color tinting), endless subterranean labyrinths (shot in abandoned WW2 bunkers in Vienna), myriad grotesque masks, industrial and death metal music, the Bros. Quay and Jan Švankmajer and Joel-Peter Witkin and David Lynch all mixed together.
