Highly Overrated But Still Good

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Now I will admit I am a huge fan of any film deemed disturbing, gross or wrong (my download collection includes all of the Guinea Pig movies, Un Chien Andalou, Nekromantik among many others) and it actually took me a while to hear of Vase de Noces. I eventually heard about it on Listverse on a list of Top Ten Most Disturbing Movies. It was not on the list but someone had suggested it in the comments. On looking it up on IMDb I knew instantly that it must be added to my library of gross movies... After hours battling with The Pirate Bay, Limewire and Youtorrent (I don't pay for anything. Sue me.) I managed to download a full VHSrip of the movie (which I will happily send to anyone who wants it :] message me) and I watched it alone one night... If, like me, you love the grossness of films like this, you will not be disappointed. Otherwise I wouldn't recommend it. I admit it was hard to concentrate on the artiness of the film when man-pig breeding and coprophagia is going on but I did take a few minutes to appreciate the surreal aura of the film. As artsy as it is you gotta admit, somebody's gotta be smoking something to come up with this idea. Then again, this seems like the kind of idea I would come up with... It is definitely an acquired taste and it takes someone with guts of steel to really appreciate it. But I say go for it! It can't be worse than Two Girls One Cup...

"Vase de Noces" is an outstanding flick . Its meaning is obvious: it's an allegory about obsession (not a particular one, provided that the particulars - teaching the pigs good manners, marrying a sow, collecting feces - are totally inane , but any mind-destroying compulsion developed in insulation ) which finally leads the obsessed one to destroy his sick love and finally himself. There is an identification man <-> obsessions and when the objects of the obsession fail, we understand that our hero is necessarily doomed. The fact that it's very graphical and disturbing is functional to the message. It is beautifully shot with great mastership of the medium, the music comment is awesome and Dominique Garny plays "heroically" his role. Now this can sound like a provocation but I think that one of the good things in this movie is that it is never excessive. The same plot in the hands of a less skilled director/actor would result in a mere shocker movie full of bad taste (imagine this movie in "Technicolor" or directed by john waters), not in that lonely descent to hell depicted by this outstanding movie. Its limit is that the story could reach a higher expressive impact if developed by a more creative director - I imagine that some Pasolini or Lynch could do even better than this.And as pointed out before, one who willfully watches a movie called "the pig-f***ing movie" automatically loses his right to complain.One last word to that plethora of Philistines who commented on this thread so far: "when the finger points at the moon, the ... look at the finger" . Please spare us your nonsenses. We already know that feces and pigs are gross, find some other argument or change your schedule.

I approached Vases De Noces with sheer caution, knowing what would lie ahead of me and all the talk surrounding it, it remains as strange, quiet, savage and disgusting. It has scenes that are revolting and ugly, you could beg the film for mercy to end and it still lingers on the screen like smoke. Vases De Noces could be on a category of its own. We see things as bestiality, corophagia, urine-drinking, etc and it does not shy away on what we can do is just stare or just close our eyes. Others have said that it's disgusting, vile, nasty, and sick and I have to agree that the film is not so enjoyable. Sure all of this could make out that Vases De Noces (aka The *beep* movie) is such a wretched film that could leave you nauseated and would make you not look at an animal for a while, why is there a movie like Vases De Noces around? Was it done to just shock, disgust? Or enjoy? I could say the first two, knowing what I would wouldn't see. It is a film that has disappeared from out of thin air, nowhere to be found for someone to see and if they did, they shouldn't. What I found so fascinating is how the farmer lives, he uses hot coals to take baths, prays before he eats, does his business in a portable toilet. Lingers about his farm tending to his chickens or putting dolls on them or just frolicking with his pig.Sure, frolicking with his beloved pig; chasing it around, rolling around the manure,until finally having sex that made me flinch in disgust, it's not too graphic but weirdly well done.Many reviewers have focus on the content and how tedious it is,never noticing how the sky and landscape shows how the post-apocalyptic the world is. After the pig has died and the Farmer burying himself with the pig, it is lurid.There is an amazing long shot of the black and white landscape fading slowly before the Farmer rises from the pigs grave. A strange but funny scene when the farmer eats and feeds his offspring, the little piglets run over to his plate. Refusing their food only to eat his and again and again he puts them back to their plate only to find them going back to his plate. This review will make you think I enjoyed this film,although I can admit that I only enjoyed the cinematography and the isolation of the farmer.Watching this after watching the tedious Nekromantik 2 which went on and went on, I was engulfed from the loneliness of the farmer.Like the first original Nekromantik, the hero kills himself after it's horrific lifestyle in a very enigmatic way.Not much things are explained and I don't mind at all. I settle in giving Vases De Noces three stars out of four or a 6 1/2 out of 10, Not to saying I hated it or loved it, all I could tell you is don't watch it.

A farmer(Dominique Garny)who may be the last man on earth,loves and makes love to a huge sow-pig.When the sow gives birth,he takes the piglets from her to keep her from eating them,and knits cute little infant things for them.When the piglets abandon him for their mother,he executes them by hanging,and the sow shows the first distress she has shown for the whole film."Wedding Trough",more commonly known as "The Pig Fu*king Movie" is certainly one of the sickest films ever made.It's loaded with scenes of implied bestiality,coprophagia and insanity,so fans of unrelentingly grim,experimental transgressions will be satisfied.The action is set on a secluded rural farm and the film is completely devoid of dialogue.Still despite its truly repellent subject matter the action is slow,but the scenes of the farmer sodomizing his swine or eating his own excrement are sick as hell.Give it a look,only if you are into extreme cinema.8 out of 10.
