DVD Reviews of Santa Sangre 2-DVD Special Edition
DVD Review: Bless This Movie 'Holy Movie'
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie is in my top 10 of all time. It is a beautiful combination of horror, drama, brutality, humor, unforgettable imagery, and the absurd. The acting can be flat at times, but this masterpiece makes up for it in it's epic mind boggling journey. This movie contains my second most favorite movie murder. My first being the brutally stabbed and hung girl or first victim in Dario Argento's 'Susperia'. Filmed in mexico to my knowledge, sleazy under belly of the culture as well as morbid latin american catholicism are used beautifully as a back drop to this bizarre story of Fenix. Fenix was raised in his younger years in show business under a circus tent, by his turbulent parents. His mother is a dominant mother with extreme religion who worships a saint the catholic church refuses to recognize. This unconventional saint is that of a young girl, clad in girl school uniform, who's images and statues represent her with no arms. There is quite a story behind that. Fenix's father is the ring master of the circus and is the big and burly mexican alpha male. He is macho, he drinks and womanizes. All three, mother, father and son are performers in the show. In a way Fenix's real family, when his parents are lost in their dysfunctional dramas, are the circus clowns who seem to always be there to offer unconditional nurturing love. This part of the story ends in tragedy, but the story really begins years later as we find Fenix all grown up and in an insane asylum. I won't say more because I dare wouldn't want to spoil any of the weird and absurd surprises, except to expect alot of murder, bizarre tonal changes, humor, and even a little romance. The music score is remarkable. It sets the tone all the way. From sad accordion circus music to dramatic samba and horns the later which work perfectly during the most violent and serious parts of the film. If you like cinema that is a little more of the odd, you will love Santa Sangre.
Description of Santa Sangre 2-DVD Special Edition
The ultimate version of Santa Sangre on DVD. This all-region NTSC format DVD (playable in the USA) is a 2-disc edition with a wealth of extras. Synopsis: A young man is confined in a mental hospital. Through a flashback we see that he was traumatized as a child, when he and his family were circus performers: he saw his father cut off the arms of his mother, a religious fanatic and leader of the heretical church of Santa Sangre ("Holy Blood"), and then commit suicide. Back in the present, he escapes and rejoins his surviving and armless mother. Against his will, he "becomes her arms" and the two undertake a grisly campaign of murder and revenge.
