A documentary that reveals what its subjects do in their respective basements.
Leave your thoughts about In the Basement.
| Screen InternationalLee MarshallIt's in more conventional observation and confessions to camera that the film really delivers its strange, melancholic universe. |
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlSeidl's study reminds us, with each new basement, that the places where we're most ourselves might as well have grown off us like the shells of mollusks. |
| Chicago ReaderBen SachsIn the Basement is a brisk, bracing, and often very funny film about the seeds of fascism in contemporary Austrian society. |
| Gay City NewsSteve EricksonThere's a pleasurable quality to [ director Ulrich] Seidl's direction even when what he's filming is repugnant. As with Haneke, it makes his provocations go down easier. |
| NewcityRay PrideCan his fellow Austrians be as strange, as blunt, as unfathomably cruel as lore and legend hold? ... Ja, in almost every successive gesture, statement, offhanded remark... sexual predilection and, especially, in those memorabilia collections. |
| User ReviewSimon DUlrich Seidl seems intent on exposing the Austrian underworld and as a resident of the country, I'm finding his films very informative. This short documentary shows what Austrians do in their cellar, just in case you missed the Josef Fritzl saga. |
| User ReviewTor MUlrich Seidl has done some great films. Some of them documentaries. His films are often weird, quirky and provoking and this one is following his known track. We meet people that have some rather weird hobbies. They perform them in basements and we join in. There is nazi-fans, SM-fans and a lady that keeps creepy, real looking infant dolls on boxes down there. I don't know how Seidl found these people, and even more fascinating is why they tell their stories in front of cameras. Most of the people here are really something else and often they show stuff that's not commonly accepted. The main problem here is that this film seem too far out to be a documentary. His other fictional films seem more believeable than this stuff. Anyhow, it's an interesting peep into the lives of weirdoes and it will make you cringe and freak you out. 6 out of 10 freaks. |
| User ReviewCharles SAustrians doing weird things in their basements. |
| User ReviewAlain FThis is a glorified freak show for middle class people. |
