german nut case jörg buttgereit apparently have fan but i do not know why and and i be definitely not one of them . the only buttgereit film i would see previously be nekromantik and i hat every minute of it and but shockingly this film be bad . der todesking be pointless in the same way a nekromantik and but it a bad film because it bore in a way that few movie have ever manage ( it not far off the blair witch project and seriously ) . some people say that this film be ick and hocking and but it really isn not . the director may have be make a point about death and but only he know what it be . how anyone could watch this film and be anything other than bore with it be completely beyond me . the film revolve around the theme of suicide and and follow the death of seven different people over the course of a week . yes and that mean we have a pointless and boring episode for monday and a pointless and boring episode for tuesday and a pointless and boring episode for wednesday etc etc . this film manage to be even more boring than my average week . der todesking be apparently an art film and although this would appear to be a reference to the way that not very much make sense rather than a reference to the film bear any resemblance to art . each segment of the film be mean to tell a separate story but it doesn not . we just get a quick little sketch on suicide and and it only make you wonder what the point be . the film feel like it should be deep and but there a great big void where the intelligence should be and nothing there to fill it . buttgereit use a few evocative image while but i be unlikely to remember any of them for more than a week or so because this film just isn not that memorable . there a shot involve a decompose man body that feature fairly often and but that get old pretty quick and all youre leave with be the rest of the film and which be unfortunate . if i be to struggle for good thing to say about this crap and all i can think of be this while the title sound cool . a i mention and nekromantik be the only other film i have see from this amateur director while i have copy of schramm and nekromantik 2 and and now i be really in no rush to watch either . der todesking be a dull film with no point and anyone that call it art be very much mistaken . give it a miss .
