lars von trier seem to be able to make just two kind of movie represent awful one and excellent one . epidemic have be schedule in order to obtain money for another movie lars intend to ask money for two different movie and to use almost all of the money to realize the first one ( europe ) and leave few dollar to realize the second one ( epidemic ) . epidemic have no script and no actor and almost no director . it just a funny joke . it can be amuse if you be really involve with lars and niels and and his wife and otherwise it make no sense . i rate one star just because it be not possible to write rating do not apply . if you be interested in lars von trier visual and poetic art and try to consider before the more recent ( and in some way and more accessible ) work like break the wave and dancer in the dark and and dogville . europa can be the following step and and if you like it and maybe idioterne and forbrydelsens element can be the follow one . the tv series riget i and ii be really enjoyable and be an all audience product lars say it make them just for money . obviously and theyre not a mixture of e. r. and twin peak and a someone say . the style of epidemic be very similar to that of riget and but the plot be meaningless . from a certain point of view and epidemic be like an home make movie represent it can be funny accord to the one who make it and and maybe it can be appreciate by their friend and but shouldn not be program on the big screen ( . unless someone have give you some money to make it . ) .
