Haneke's film is a loathsome experiment in violence. Enter at your own risk.

What happened to the good old fashioned insane killer?

No review available.

...one sequence featuring the manipulation of time by a character undermines everything that came before it...

Sadistic, insufferable, clever, and relentlessly compelling.

Alternately infuriating and harrowing, Michael Haneke's Funny Games is a potent piece of shock cinema that thrives on making the audience uncomfortable.

One of the most gut-wrenching cinematic ordeals in recent memory.

An ersatz nightmare, a pedant's lecture on sadism, and an intellectual's idea of a shock tactic.

Remarkably well-directed and played, the crisp images perfectly framed by cinematographer Jürgen Jürges for maximum effect.

If you want, this is a high-class Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
