"Taxidermia is merely slimy biological vaudeville." - Bill Weber

need to rewatch, remember not being wowed by it but i seem to see people raving about it fairly often, until then: 67

Gleefully disgusting multigenerational tale. Generally, the deliberate obtuseness of a lot of arthouse features can be offputting, but this movie is so utterly fucking gone, that such concerns never enter the picture. It's the rarest of gems: An engrossing gross-out film.

A dismally boring film filled with little more than a series of gross out scenes that should be made by kids on youtube not film directors. There's next to no story and what little there is, is loosely strung together and poorly plotted. There's absolutely nothing going on behind the pretentious facade.

Three stories. Three penises. Three men. Grandpenis, penis, penis. One is a penis, one is a leading penis, and one is a master penis. One desires penis, the other penis, and the third penis. (Fesitval de Penis) And that's just the first 15 minutes.

loved every disgusting, grotesque moment this movie had to offer..and it had quite a few of those :)

No frame wasted.

Weird

This bizarre, scatological, perverse and gruesome Hungarian film is certainly one of a kind. Not recommended if you're the squeamish type.

Original, controversial, explicit & disgustingly beautiful cinamatography... Exactly my kind of movie. (See also 'Ex Drummer'!)

Shocking, absurd and hilarious. At the same time ugly and beautiful. Definitely something you haven't seen before.

Enormously sad and hysterically funny: a brilliant tragicomedy, a severely sarcastic satire and a real fucking punch in the face of respectability.

Hilarious, absurd, funny movie about three generations. Differ positively from mainstream films.

Drop-dead bizarre yet simple and fabulous. Repulsive yet exquisite. Nightmarish yet dreamy. The search for one's self seen as the size of his aims in life.

Whoosh. I'll try again if I'm not sleepy.

When the first scene is a guy with flames coming out of his penis, you know you're in for something special. With scenes that combine necrophilia and bestiality (in honestly a fantastic sequence), gluttony, explicit gore and more vomit than a moleitau - it's unfortunately easy to forget the Hungarian history in the moment, as the true weight of the film comes with hindsight. Not when you're overwhelmed by content that would make the Marquis de Sade smile.

Grotesco, enfermo, etc y refleja a la sociedad contemporánea

Wonderfully obscure film about man's instinctual need to immortalize oneself through passing on a legacy through a son. Food, sex, birth, death and many other human facets are explored... beautiful and disguisting (sometimes simultaneously).

Explicit, gore, ... whatever the adjective may be, this all reflects the stylistic beauty of Taxidermia. ... The style of every different story is amazing. ... The cinematography, the absurdity, and the amazing ending, this film is definitely worth viewing.
