Any other fans of this film besides myself?

I found it to be a hilariously subversive, dark film. It's about a serial killer named Benoit who has a film crew following him around and chronicling his daily activities for a documentary they're making. After a while they get sucked into helping Benoit with his crimes, and even start to get into murder themselves.

Although it's supposed to be one of the more disturbing films ever made according to some, I found it to be very funny, although in a morbid, kind of twisted way. Some of Benoit's lines are priceless, though...he ruminates on everything from architecture to relationships to the mating cycles of pigeons in between killing people.

"I buried two Muslims in that wall over there...facing Mecca, of course."

I wasnt impressed with it at all.
The idea sounded cool but this execution didnt do it for me.

It didnt think it was disturbing, not even when


he smothers that kid to death with a pillow.
