Slipbox Dogtooth (Limited Edition Full Slip Blu-ray) [Korea]

I saw the listing yesterday when I placed my order for The Grey at Novamedia. Just a day earlier I received the regular German keep case... lol, talk about timing. :wacky:
I will pass on this, because I agree with @Raggle Fraggle! - those skinny slips just don't offer enough for $28. Also, this is a title we will most likely see in the next winter sale. I can hardly believe it will sell out soon.
 
I'm not sure even if i buy it, that i'll ever open it to watch this film again. But i guess some people will.

What's next Korea? The Human Centipede? A Serbian Film? :whistle::p

Haha. Well, neither Dogtooth nor Serbian Film were masterpieces. I thought they were both good. Equally good in their own way, but only good; not great.

A Serbian Film is a piece of extremely bad film making and torture porn pretending it's some sort of commentary of Serbian society. Dogtooth actually has craft. There are no redeeming qualities in A Serbian Film.

I don't see it as porn. I saw it as a film about a sad and cruel world. It's sad but true, good doesn't always win.

I don't doubt they had that message in mind, I'm just talking strictly in terms of film making, A Serbian Film is God awful (acting, direction, editing). The only reason thsr movie is well known is because of its shocking content.

Definitely not torture porn. And it's not extremely bad film making. actually, it sounds like it achieved what it meant to because it seems like you are disgusted by that film. May be i'm wrong but regardless, Dogtooth doesnt have better acting or direction. May be editing. It is a bit more...fluid? Again, they are not great pieces of art but neither are they "bad film making".

some French stuff like "Martyrs", "Haute Tension", "Irreversible" or "A l'interieur". IMO they all deserve a special treatment....:D
Martyrs and Irreversible are on my watch list. Havent seen them yet. I shall add the other 2 to my list as well :)

Just in case anyone wonders, there are no special finish on the slipbox at all :(

Well, seeing as how Dogtooth was nominated for an oscar, I, and many would very very much disagree with that.
Maybe I was too harsh on Serbian Film; I guess it tries to be something smart, but fails. It did make me laugh quite a few times (especially the eye, um, penetration) so i don't regret seeing it.

Yea that's fine to disagree as these are opinions. But saying a film nominated for an Oscar and judging it purely on that is not saying much. Because i could say the same thing for Fifty Shades of Grey :LOL: Or Transformers :p.
