Product Description

Product Description

To secure money for his family, Milos, a retired adult film star, plunges once more into the depths of pornographic production only to realise too late the depraved nature of his new mysterious and menacing director s vision.

The director, Vukmir, and his cohorts will stop at nothing to complete their film and Milos is forced to carry out a series of increasingly depraved acts. He is desperate to escape this living cinematic hell but Milos cannot possibly know what unspeakable horrors Vukmir has in store for him next.

This Special Edition DVD includes an introduction by the director and an exclusive, never seen before, "making of" the infamous baby scene that was banned by British censors.

This is a must-see --Empire

A Serbian Film is amongst the most gripping I have seen in recent times. For fans of extreme cinema, this is essential viewing. --DVD Verdict

Its shock content reaches an almost criminal threshold. --Variety

So, with all the buzz about the movie i decided to give it a chance. I thought I had seen it all, when it comes to extremely dark and disturbing movies, Salo, Men Behind the Sun, Nekromantik, Flower of Flesh and Blood, the August Underground movies, could it get anymore extreme. Having just watched a Serbian Film, lets just say i haven't seen a more disturbing movie to date. Some of the scenes are so graphic and repulsive you just cant believe your eyes, and i had to stop the movie at one point, and that's a first for me. Saying that there is some positivity to this movie as it was a well made piece of cinema. Whether taken as metaphor, social commentary, exploitation or even as dark satire, Srdan Spasojevic's debut is impossible to ignore, and the debates which it has inspired serve as a nice reminder of how films can cause such extreme reactions in audiences and critics - many of whom it has to be said, probably haven't even seen the film in the first place. Set in modern Serbia, the film follows Milos, a retired porn-star now living the family life with a wife and 5-year-old son. In an effort to ensure the financial future of his family, Milos reluctantly accepts a job offer from a mysterious producer named Vukmir to produce "artistic pornography" at an extremely high pay rate. The only catch is that he isn't allowed to know any details of the movie he's in -- he's only asked to show up, act naturally, and have sex. Milos' introduction to the intimidating sunglasses-clad posse hiring him (imagine "high class Euro-thug" and you've got it) is handled well -- decisive camera movements and terse dialogue create an atmosphere of dreadful inevitability without relying on too much stylization. It's in these sequences that the film shows promise, if not complexity.Read more ›

This advertises that the movie is 104 minutes which would make it the uncut version when in actual fact it is 95 minutes meaning it is the cut version!!

This 2010 film, tells the story of an ex porn star who is struggling to provide for his wife and young son. When his female co-star from the past suddenly arrives, she offers him a lucrative film deal financed by the mysterious Vukmir. But without a script to go on, what has he let himself in for?
From the opening scene of a 5 year old boy watching a porn movie featuring his dad, you know this is going to be a difficult watch. Covering unsavoury topics such as graphic depictions of rape, necrophilia, suggested bestiality and child sexual abuse, this was always going to offend. But despite the hype, there is little here that has not already been covered in other films, but what this does is put them all together in a graphic and suggestive manner [however this is the censored version] [lose a *]. However, realism isn’t the name of the game as some of the plot lines are ludicrous and are simply meant to shock which wouldn’t be a bad thing if the film didn’t pretend to make a real social statement [lose a *].
The single disc offers play, scene selection, set up [5.1, 2.0 default] and a film makers insight. Running at 95 minutes, this has 49 edits, although no full scenes are deleted –[having edited many of the scenes involving the children], but it still makes for disturbing viewing. I didn’t pick up on the social statement the filmmaker bleated on about, how everyone prostitutes themselves as wage slaves etc, even he admitted he made the film then looked for the justification for it.

There has been a thing going around about the sheer dreadfulness of this film.
I bought it to see just how shocking it was.
I suspect that some sections had been cut, but there was still lot's of graphic unpleasantness, mainly of a sexually perverse nature, to make it a grim storyline.
In fact the sexual element is very graphically portrayed.
I have seen worse gore.
I guess what sets this apart is the despicable acts the main player is forced while drugged to participate in.
The ending is unexpected and another perverse twist.
You'll either find this disgusting and grossly shocking, or watchable for what it is. Controversial.

Even in it's censored form, A Serbian Film packs a powerful punch.

Without trying to sound like an apologist for censorship, the cut version still works and internet rants against companies putting out censored work should be directed at the censor, not the companies putting out the movies, who have to recoup costs regardless of the BBFCs outcome.

To all the people bleating about how disgusting it is and how it should be banned I say this. You don't have to watch it. This isn't the kind of film, thanks to a combined campaign of open and honest marketing and furiously jerking knees, that anyone will come to without prior warning.

Therefore, if you choose to watch something and then get offended, it's your fault, not the fault of talented filmmakers creating transgressive imagery. Personally, I watched it and got very upset. Upset because the film asked me questions rather than simply throwing the claret around and jiggling breasts in my face.

If only more films were less thought provoking and had more pointless slaughter and more jiggling breasts,we could all sleep at night knowing that no one would be offended or uncomfortable. Fact is, art and creativity shouldn't be subject to censure only classification. I classify this movie as uncompromising, thought provoking, intellegent and extremely troubling.

If you don't like images of sex, violence and sexual violence, just don't watch it. Don't. If you're more tolerant of extreme cinema and taboo images, then A Serbian Film, despite protests from reviewers about it being pure exploitation (an act of cowardice as they try to avoid being seen to praise that which has been universally vilified), is a smart, clever, questioning work that will at least give you plenty of pub debate ammunition.
