Well underrated., 28 June 2009
Author: vis666

This film is by far one of the most underrated films I have seen in a while. The story (a man banished from his home town loses his wife to the Black Plague) could have been taken straight out of a Bram Stoker novel and has a very 20's German/Gothic feel to the whole. Adding to that experience is a romantic and yet very menacing string/piano/organ music which is consistent throughout the movie. (There is no spoken dialog in its entirety.) I haven't found a soundtrack on any retail sites yet and that's a real shame seeing it's absolutely beautiful. As far as setting, mis-en-scene and all that concerns (I'm not a professional) to me looked all fantastic and a low budget very well spent. Overall, a DVD every cinephile should consider buying.

8/10 for the movie, 9,5/10 for the music. 9/10 averaged. Kickass work guys!
