Taxidermia sets a benchmark for body horror in the cinema.
August 14, 2009 | Full Review… -
Taxidermia is a brilliant, often grotesquely bizarre allegory on life in Hungary from World War II to the present, a surrealist fantasy exploring the limits of the body and its desires and altogether a darkly funny comedy.

And now a word of advice from your friendly film critic: If you go to see the Hungarian black comedy Taxidermia, don't plan to eat afterward.

Produces nightmarish horror and formal beauty in a surreal, Central European blend.

Jun 18, 2013Just horrible all the way around. You can't even watch a single scene without becoming completely disgusted by what you are viewing.John B Super Reviewer

Nov 02, 2012An interesting film that may be too repulsive but still we never look away. With a memorable direction and camera work, it tells a cynical (and often hilarious) story about three generations of deviant men who are a reflection of Hungary's History since WWII.Carlos M Super Reviewer

Nov 01, 2010Let me tell ya Foreign movies REALLY work up to the point of it! Most of this movie didn?t even fit the title. To start you hear a male voice in (Russian?) which is louder than the translator (part of movie) after an hour & 15-20 minutes is where the Taxidermia part actually comes in. Until this part I was getting bored. Although I will say the movie in a few ways is gross in various ways. Tho? the end is kinda artsy in a ?Bodies? (in Motion)Exibit sort of way. (its in NY city) for me was a waste of my Halloween. C (cause I?m not sure how to rate this one!)Kym (c my community profile) R Super Reviewer

Aug 07, 2010"Taxidermia" follows three generations of some odd men in Hungary. It is a sub-real movie that is extremely well-made; great camera angles, style, acting, music, and effects, however, it is pretty disturbing and gross. Really good film, visually beautiful, stylish, bizarre and disturbing.John M Super Reviewer
