One of Luis Bunuel's masterworks, The Exterminating Angel is a brilliant surrealist allegory about a group of socialites who, inexplicably find themselves unable to leave their host's house, and gradually degenerate into violence and depravity.
Absurdity is relative; it requires a reality (or something less absurd) to be contrasted with.
In typical fashion, Buñuel offers no explanation, but the way your head spins around this simple premise makes each scene more fun than the last.

A deliciously sardonic black comedy in the best surrealistic tradition of auteur Luis Buñuel.
One of the master director's most concentrated and unambiguous works.
If not necessarily Buñuel’s greatest film, this unclassifiable creation must count as one of the most twisted stunts ever mounted for the screen.
Though less popular than other works, this is one of Bunuel's most philosophically profound and eccentric films, bearing undeniably disturbing effects on the viewers.
A blistering attack on social classes and conventions, The Exterminating Angel may be the best in a long line of Buñuel masterpieces.

Bunuel's ultimate cosmic joke against meaning itself
I watched it and I don't know what it means either, but it's a hell of a movie.

Buñuel faz uma contundente crítica à burguesia através da sátira e do absurdo.
A macabre comedy, a mordant view of human nature that suggests we harbor savage instincts and unspeakable secrets.
Top CriticThe great Spanish director Luis Bunuel traps us in the surrealistic universe of The Exterminating Angel, his most bitter, most brilliant work since Viridiana.
Top CriticMy feeling is that his canvas is too narrow and his social comment too plain to keep our interest fixed upon his people and their barren stewing for an hour and a half.
