Spalovac mrtvol (1969)

[Michel]

Kopfrkingl enjoys his job at a crematorium in Czechoslovakia in the late 1930s. He likes reading the Tibetan book of the dead, and espouses the view that cremation relieves earthly suffering. At a reception, he meets Reineke, with whom he fought for Austria in the first World War. Reineke convinces Kopfrkingl to emphasize his supposedly German heritage, including sending his timid son to the German school. Reineke then suggests that Kopfrkingl's half-Jewish wife is holding back his advancement in his job.

Spalovac mrtvol (1969) - kakva je ovo bolesna filmčina. Za 60-e se svako malo uvjerim da je to uz 70-e i 80-e najbolje razdoblje horora. Spalovac mrtvol je prilično bolestan film o čovjeku koji radi u krematoriju, ali je psihički sjeban u glavi te polako propada. On je i narator u čitavom filmu, čita Tibetansku knjigu mrtvih, počne ubijati svoje prijatelje, bližnje jer je uvjeren da će njihove duše biti njegove. Glavni glumac odličan, uvijek poluosmijeh na licu što ga čini puno strašnijim. Muzika odlična, dosta lijepih nadrealnih scena i prelijepo snimljen.
