The Third Part of the Night (Trzecia czesc nocy)

Bleak holocaust drama filmed as an apocalyptic fever dream of doubles, mirrors, laboratories and body horror. Pretty gross!

My cat loved the close-ups of lice. Me, not so much. Not the towering masterpiece that POSSESSION is, but it works in the same, "I'm not sure exactly what's happening on the surface here, but the way it's making me feel is communicating exactly what I need to know" kind of…

The material is much more disturbing when read between lines. There is an asphyxiating aura of war claustrophobia like almost anything seen in the history of world cinema; tension abounds; the underground operations may disturb the characters' motivations permanently if…
