LA RECENSIONE

"The outrageousness of this review is that the quotes are mine, the rest unquoted is from the film."

I am here as a contestant and I come to destroy it as per the rule, so as not to be destroyed by it.
"The rule... destruction. Always back to square one."

A facial reconstruction? Oh yes, an Italian-style facial reconstruction.
Research on facial reconstruction in Italy has progressed a lot. In Italy?!?
"I love you, I love you, I love you... I told you to go get a facial reconstruction"...

Trallallà... "and trallallero."

"Pasolini is a" joker: ambiguity of good...

The problem of the future is no longer individual. There will be no trace of humanistic culture tomorrow. And men will no longer have problems of conscience...
Ah, because have you had any?
Contradictions are absolutely necessary.
"Damn you and all your ancestors."

It’s no wonder that then during the night I have terrible nightmares, but they are the most sincere thing in my life, I have no other way to face reality.
"The horror."

"Cannibal rituals, coprophagic rituals, suicidal rituals, rituals against everyone": Crimes against humanity? Hurrah! "Let's call them alliances."

"The Germanic fury": Collection of skulls of Jewish Bolshevik commissioners for scientific research at the University of Strasbourg. "Strasbourg, eh"...

A button? No, nothing at all. So shhhh, don’t tell anyone. "Keep quiet and behave, please."

"DING dong, DING dong, DING dong," omnipresent like God and His truth.

I feel the urgent desire for a cream puff. "The usual sadists, also diabetic, small dick anyway."

Speak up, you boor! ... those pigs, "those"...

"Inferior ones! Keep consenting to the slaughter"...
Tremble with joy, tremble.
But by now... "It enters your ass, but not your head."

 "The impossibility of preserving the cannibal me from the cannibal world."

 "Porcile takes no prisoners. It condemns everyone... There is no hope in this pigsty where everyone eats everything."
