Written & directed by Lars von Trier, the story is narrated in chapters, each covering a depressive stage that gets more n more intense as plot progresses. But as days pass, the husband starts experiencing strange visions while the wife begins to manifest increasingly violent behavior.
The story of Antichrist follows a grieving couple who, following the loss of their only son, retreat to a cabin in the woods in order to recover from the tragedy and repair their broken marriage. The first entry in Lars von Trier’s Depression Trilogy “Antichrist” is an increasingly disturbing but consistently gripping experimental horror that’s unnerving, unsettling & unforgiving in its depiction of grief, pain & despair but it doesn’t dig deep enough into those depressive elements to leave a lasting impression.
