A Warning - for this is truly a Necronomicon of film. Chronopolis is the most disturbing movie ever made - like a bad drug trip - true visions of a tormented mental state…its a perfect rendition of a NIGHTMARE beyond anything explainable in human words. Enter this movie and you come back agonized and tainted for the rest of your life. Stop motion animations can be terrifying - especially the Quay brothers and Jan Svankmayer’s work is often truly unsettling and frightening….rotten fungi, broken porcelain puppets decomposed taxadermizied animals etc. always give that’cosy uplifting atmosphere. But you ain’t seen anything yet…here we have Pjotr Kamler’s CHRONOPOLIS...that strange uncanny valley of stuttering stop motion movements is taken to new heights of fear in a completely dissacosiated world. The story as far as we can understand (reading the synopsis online there is no way you can figure this out by watching it) is about immortal beings that live in a gargantuan city were they build useless monuments…one day there is a visitor… thats as far as we can grasp. The soundtrack is amazing, pure electronic frightning madness straight out of a psychosis made by a guy called Luc Ferrari a French Italian pioneer of electro acoustic music. The most fucked up thing is that Chronopolis won BEST CHILDRENS MOVIE at the Italian Fantafestival in 1982. I can only imagine children (and grown ups for that matter) coming out of the cinema traumatized if they watch a few minutes of this. You know what would be fun??! put this on as a homely snuggy christmas movie instead of Home Alone or whatever people watch on Christmas and see what happens as an antropological experiment. Truly an unique film so unique its dangerous to watch. watch it here [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNPfT06MUkU&t=1659s]
