der todesking be not one of my favorite jorg buttgereit film but still be an interesting film deal with suicide and it reason and ramification . those look for a gore fest and or exploitation in the style of the nekromantik film or schramm will probably be disappoint . der todesking be definitely an art house style film and so those that need linear and explainable narrative need not apply . the basic concept of der todesking be that there be an episode for each day of the week that revolve around a strange chain letter that apparently cause people to commit suicide and intersperse with scene of a slowly decomposing corpse . there be some very well do and think provoke scene and include the man talk about the problem with his wife and and the concert massacre ( which unfortunately lose some of it power on me and because i be too busy laugh at the scorpion look alike band on stage . ) . but seriously this be a sometimes beautiful ( the scene that show different angle of that huge bridge be particularly effective especially if you understand the significance of the scene and and that the name show be of people that actually commit suicide from jump from the bridge . ) and sometimes confusing and sometimes silly ( the she wolf of the s rip off be pretty amuse ) and sometimes harrow ( i find the scene of the guy talk to the girl in the park about his wife particularly effective ) film that be more of an experience then just entertainment and a many of these art film be mean to be . still and i do not find der todesking to be as strong a nekromantik or schramm and and would probably put it on relatively even foot with nekromantik 2 in term of my personally enjoyment level . definitely worth a look to any buttgereit or art film fan . if you dig this type of film check out subconscious cruelty in my opinion the best art house or horror film that i have see . positive for der todesking .
