“This is definitely one of the more disgusting films Iu0026#39;ve watched, and not in a good way. This movie made me physically ill, and though it was mind-bending and beautifully coreographed, the subject matter and the lead charactersu0026#39; inevitable decline into utter insanity that is characteristic of Greenaway films was a bit much for me. Iu0026#39;m saying this and I loved Santa Sangre. Go figure.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA pair of twin brothers (who have different hair color somehow, and as it turns out were originally Siamese twins) become obsessed with the subjects of decay, evolution, and greif when their wives are killed in a car crash at the Zoo. They start conducting utterly repulsive experiments that involve time-elapse films of animals and fruits rotting away. And to top it all off, thereu0026#39;s a plot in all of this, by a couple of poachers posing as zoo staff who plan to make a profit from all this. The rest is just entirely too disgusting/weird/complicated to explain clearly, but I will give you some hints about the ending: It involves a rack. And snails. And floodlights. And a record player.”
