Robert R. Best Series of Reviews: Calvaire


Robert R. Best has offered to submit a series of film reviews. We, here at the Cadaver Lab, feel lucky to have him send these into us because of his entries into horror literature. Make sure to visit him online at http://robertrbest.synthasite.com/.

Review of Calvaire:

This is a Belgian film from a few years back. It's disturbing, perverse and worth seeing.

Our hero is a low-level singer who is touring the countryside, playing nursing homes and things like that. And we gather that he considers himself better than the sad, lonely people he is performing for.

While on the way to another show, he ends up stranded in a depraved village being terrorized by a depraved innkeeper. And all sorts of nasty things ensue. And his distaste for the sad and lonely quite literally comes back to fuck him in the ass. And crucify him. And force him to wear dresses.

Also features a pig being violated and the strangest dancing you'll ever see. How strange? So strange that I feel compelled to mention it on top of the other things I've listed.

Watch it.

Trust me.
