i once promise never to walk out of any film ( a personal policy that make me suffer through the most different kind of dreck and such a rambo 3 and baise moi and deep impact ) but mr. seidl almost succeed . hundstage be a truly awful experience . anyone who see this movie will think that austrian be a miserable and pathetic bunch of retard . it show a world where love and humanity do not exist and a world where people humiliate each other only for one reason to distract from their own miserable existence . by choose a documentary like style with non professional actor ( most of them look like straight from the imagination of austrian shock cartoonist deix ) director seidl want to make u believe that this be real life in austrian ( european . western . ) suburb . the viewer be confront with depiction of sex orgy and violence against woman and handicapped people and madness and degradation . but this isn not social criticism . this be just pure shock without any aesthetic value . instead you get bad acting and bad cinematography and bad filmmaking . if anybody need a film like this to realize that there be thing wrong in our society then this person must have walk through life with closed eye . this be pseudo social criticism with a sledge hammer . and it look down on people in a disgustingly condescending way . it show ugly people that be not the reason why i hate it . but it depict average people in an ugly and misanthropic way . and this be why this film be truly despicable .
