Bizarre and funny short. Malevolent locations are certainly an interesting idea, and who hasn't had days that felt like this?

A genius and utterly hilarious story of a hostile apartment. Bizarre work in the style of Bunuel and Kafka.

Just a regular Svankmajer's flat. What can go wrong to the main tenant?

A cool little slice of surrealism. Nothing groundbreaking or even memorable, but it's nice while it lasts.

By the book existential crisis stuff. Cool stop motion and imagery.

Mixing silent-film comedy with stop-motion surrealism is a good idea -- makes some of the slapstick gags more surprising (the element of Czech humour)

Solid surreal fun. When he's on Svankmajer can do some great things.

I'm usually a sucker for surrealism so I'm biased, but I enjoy the idea of a psycho apartment. And the end is classy as hell.

Intricately fashioned 13-minute short that is kind of clever and surreal, but this viewer did not find it particularly amusing or interesting.

it isn't really about anything particularly interesting unlike some other svankmajer shorts, but it's stilla pretty amusing account of someone's day just not quite going how they want it too.

Initially revolting, but it quickly gets into its rhythm. Is it an allegory for creative work? Life itself? No, secret police interrogations, imdb tells me.

A man is trapped in an apartment where nothing works the way he expects it to. And then there's the guy stroking a rooster. But really, it's good.

twisted surrealist short takes the feeling of a bad day where nothing goes right and turns it into a scary, harrowing experience. got a bit panicky just watching it unfold.
