Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Mynameisroman I just remembered this movie and thought i could write a review after seeing this maybe 20 year ago. I know... 20 years? how much could i remember? well, this movie was very disturbing so it left an impression. I'm a fan of splatter movies. When watching Dead Alive i was laughing the whole movie because it was so funny. But this one is different. No Humor here. Its a serious and very sick movie with explicit and disgusting scenes. i watched it on VHS so after maybe 30-45 minutes in i clicked on fast forward and watched the rest of the movie with 3x speed just to get it over with. i will never watch this ever again. The movie just feels too realistic.

Scott LeBrun Robert Schmadtke (Bernd Daktari Lorenz) is a young man working for a street cleaning business. Therefore, he's able to pursue his fetish of fooling around with dead bodies and dead body parts. He takes prizes home to his willing girlfriend Betty (Beatrice Manowski), who shares his passion. However, things start to head South when he brings home an entire corpse that was fished out of a swamp. Soon after, he is fired, and the fed-up Betty decides to leave him - taking the corpse with her. Robert deals with this problem the only way that he knows how.Co-writer / director Jorg Buttgereit - who actually wore a number of hats on this show - deserves at least some respect for committing himself so thoroughly to portraying absolute filth and nastiness on screen. This may be one of the wettest, grossest films that trash fans are likely to see. The filmmaking is crude, and the makeup effects are tacky, but this adds to the admittedly arresting experience. The rather beautiful music makes for the perfect counterpoint to everything happening on screen. Lorenz and Manowski deliver sincere performances, and Buttgereit creates an overwhelmingly sordid atmosphere.Some viewers will be advised to stay FAR away. However, if one dares to immerse themselves in a very oddly romantic and poetic ode to the wonders of necrophilia, they may find the proceedings to their liking.NOT recommended for cat and rabbit lovers.Six out of 10.

yaktheripper The subject matter of "Nekromantic" is disgusting beyond words. It is an illegal and unethical matter and in any case the act of an irrational and insane person. This repulsive subject matter is the meat and potatoes of this film. I won't insult you by suggesting the movie was made from a philosophical or even medical/psychological frame of reference...I highly doubt it was. However, there is emotional investment in the characters involved and the characters are reasonably fleshed out for a B type splatter/exploitation film. It is the life of a couple with unreasonable tastes in their sexual exploits. We get to peek into their lives and watch this grotesque act take place along with the emotional outcome of the deplorable act. The ending, yes...will burn in your brain for a long time. It is, perhaps, the most shockingly disturbing ending ever for a movie. I can still see it and it makes me sick to think about it. This is not high art, make no mistake, but it is a love story with an uncomfortable and unforgettable hook and for what it's worth it's the best of it's class. I recommend this for the person who has seen it all and seeks further shock and disgust.

tequila101 Well were the heck do I begin with this film, i seriously don't know. There were 2 minor things i didn't like about the film but the rest was a disturbing presence of romance, depression, brutality and weirdness of the mysterious beyond.I like how the film's tale is told so simply. All it is, is about a guy and his buddies who find a rotting, charred corpse in a lake. The guy takes it home and him and his wife/girlfriend make love to it. His partner starts taking more interest in the corpse than him and she decides to leave him and run off with a corpse. His insanity gets to him and he goes on a small killing spree and then he commits suicide in the most unnatural way.For a low-budget cult horror, I will say as the story goes it is pretty decent in my book. It's like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Cannibal Holocaust and other films fused together to make this.I don't like the killings of the rabbit & cat. i felt they were'nt needed and it especially made me cover my eyes since it was real. The day dreaming sequences were stupid and to me there wasn't any reason for it, otherwise everything is up to scratch. I find most of the film interesting.The kills are pretty sweet, the rotting corpse is really graphic and it looks great, the music is insanely intriguing and the characters are stupid in the funniest way. The film also has a really disturbing tone. The funniest scene is when a woman is reading to the corpse.I only advise this film to those who have a strong mind. It is also a good thing that you watch 10 or so horror films before this one because if you watch this first you might not want to watch any horror film again. So watch this film in your time wisely. 7.8/10
