This movie tends to borough it's way into your mind and stay there, truly one of the most bizzare films I have ever seen in my life. For the longest time, the image of the disembowled god would not leave my mind, no matter how hard I tried. The movie traumatized me, tormented me, and nearly drove me completley insane.........

............and I loved it.

Definatley the best surrealistic/experimental horror film since Eraserhead, Mehrige's Begotten is an uncomfortable, moving, scaring experience. While I too beleive that some of the mutilation at the end seems long and drawn-out, it made the experience even more memorable for me as I felt I was forced to suffer with mother earth and her bastard god-child. When it was over, I felt like I had just narrowly escaped being involved in a car accident, safe yet terrified. I felt as though I had just escaped hell itself.

I think I'll watch it tonight.

I'm lucky that my friend that used to own a video store sold me his copy, for only $6 to boot!!
