A thoroughly offensive and often hilarious punk requiem about rape, murder, violence, kinky sex, drugs, destruction, bad manners and rock 'n' roll -- not necessarily in that order.

Hard to watch, and even harder to enjoy unless the music and almost pathological eccentricity takes your fancy.

Women, gays and old people get a pretty rough ride, though given the film's minuscule target audience it shouldn't really bother them.

A violent and self-conscious exercise in punk nihilism.

Peters out in mass murder and visual gross-out.

Bizarre, horribly violent and frequently brilliant black comedy from Belgium.

Visually exhilarating but also purposefully - and pointlessly - outrageous. Not for the faint hearted.

The film, so desperate in its attempts to shock the viewer through showing the dark side of humanity, is crippled by the fact that the characters are so thinly drawn they have no depth to them.

This grungy anti-musical will offend just about everyone with its attitude towards women, gays, kids, and the elderly.

A punk film in more ways than one, Ex Drummer is sordid, relentlessly nihilistic and extremely violent, but it's also impressively directed and unlike anything else you'll see this year.

Because of the continuous barrage of swear words, bloody violence and explicit sex, distribution beyond its home country will be difficult, but industry professionals should all note the director's name, however: M-O-R-T-I-E-R.
