Climax is a climax

Rating: 10/10 (9 March 2019)

It's pretty sad, that only a couple of theatres in Germany showed this film. For me it was the most excellent and entertaining movie experience in 2018. Choreography, camera, music, lighting and story meshed in perfect harmony to drag you into a thrilling horror-trip. It actually feels like you are tripping along, knowing things will get worse and more intense with no chance of coming down. Each of the characters can be found at any party in real life and their feelings are portrayed in an authentic way. The fact that the actors are more professional dancers than actors plus the short script make it so realistic. Especially the camera seems to move like it's intoxicated as we know from 'Enter the Void'. The soundtrack is well chosen, with songs which makes you wanna dance, but also get more and more terrifying. The songs recorded on vinyl and the volume decreasing when we move away from the speakers add to the atmosphere. All in all this film is disturbing, a classic NoÃ©. Not as morally shocking as 'Seul contre tous' or 'Irreversible', thus way scarier. It was a pleasure to watch such a piece of cinematic perfection. Can't wait for the BluRay to come out!
