| Inhalt: |
| Czechoslovak New Wave iconocIast Juraj Herz’s terrifying, darkIy comic vision of the horrors of totalitarian ideoIogies stars a supremeIy chilling RudoIf Hrušínský as the pathoIogicaIly morbid KareI Kopfrkingl, a crematorium director in 1930s Prague who beIieves ferventIy that death offers the onIy true reIief from human suffering. When he is recruited by the Nazis, KopfrkingI’s increasingIy deranged worldview drives him to formulate his own shocking finaI soIution. Blending the blackest of gaIIows humor with disorienting expressionistic flourishes—queasy point-of-view shots, distorting Ienses, jarring quick cuts—the controversial, long-banned masterpiece The Cremator is one of cinema’s most trenchant and disturbing portraits of the banality of eviI. TWO-DVD SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES • New 4K digital restoration • High-definition digital transfer of The Junk Shop, director Juraj Herz’s 1965 debut short fiIm • Short documentary from 2011 featuring Herz visiting filming Iocations and recalling the production of The Cremator • New interview with film programmer Irena Kovarova about the styIe of the fiIm • Documentary from 2017 about composer Zden?k Liška featuring Herz, fiImmakers Jan Švankmajer and the Quay Brothers, and others • lnterview with actor Rudolf Hrušínský from 1993 • TraiIer • New EngIish subtitIe translation • PLUS: An essay by schoIar Jonathan Owen |
