"I read this recently — it’s a small and significant book. It’s the autobiographical account of a teenage boy who journeys through the Nazi death camps with his father, desperately clinging to life and each other when humanity has become perversely distorted. It’s almost beyond human and beyond language. When I read it, I wondered how someone would interpret this story if they dug it up in ancient ruins centuries from now. Could it be true? What are we capable of in terms of cruelty and survival?"

1987 | Action, Drama, War
Kubrick's legendary war drama depicting a harsh view of humanity and a study of individual limits. It goes beyond the typical horrors of war films and shook our proverbial souls, like Kubrick was a master of achieving.

This book was sick, twisted, so, so wrong and yet SO good!? By far the darkest series I've ever read, yet I simply can't put it down. Its all here... beyond anything you could imagine... and more.

Die, Monster, Die! - Original Trailer

'Beyond the boundaries of shock', there is only the trailer for Die, Monster, Die! - even if it does give away most of the climax of the movie. Don't go into the greenhouse!

Gripping storytelling. Amazing subject. Access beyond access for most shows like this. Very taut filmmaking for the subject/style. (0 more)

A great documentary series that you WILL talk about and evangelize.

It worked out to be some of the most impressive acting performances of the decade, but beyond that I question what's really there.
