Antrum: The Deadliest Film Ever Made - I read about this and was instantly interested as I love these type of movies. Antrum is a mocumentary about a movie that is said to make people who watch it die, which is a very interesting concept. So I expected this to be like a mix of John Carpenter’s Cigarette Burns and La rage du Démon. And it was, just it wasn’t as good as either. Antrum starts off with a few interviews before it shows the entire existing movie, and then ends with a few interviews. The interviews isn’t as good as La rage du Demon and the movie itself isn’t nearly as good as John Carpenter’s Cigarette Burns. Sadly, because the potential was here. The “lost movie” from the 70’s however does look very, very good and real, and I love a lot of the occult imagery through the film, but the story just doesn’t hold up. Pacing felt very off too. 6,5/10
I highly recommend John Carpenter’s Cigarette Burns and La rage du Démon btw. Especially the latter. It’s a documentary about a fake film, and it’s so fucking good. An absolute masterpiece of filmmaking.
