bob c Dec 29 Old but excellent. I didn’t give it five because the sound was not so good. But may be that’s my DVD See more Jose R Mar 18 The Damned presents Ingrid Thulin as the ultimate aristocratic villain—cold, calculating, and oozing with the kind of evil that only unchecked greed and power can create. Her performance is a masterclass in moral decay, a chilling reminder that real-life horrors often outpace even the darkest cinema. Visconti’s portrayal of fascism is seductive in its elegance—dark, brutal, and insidious. But today’s version? It’s loud, crass, and completely devoid of any subtlety. In a strange way, the past’s refined malevolence almost seems classy by comparison. How times have changed—and not for the better.

And a bloated, boring failure of a movie that pitches it's pretence of deep significance with screeching, shallow melodrama.

What is the point of all this . See more 02/28/2017 I'd forgotten just how sick and twisted a film The Dammed is. Probably the best account of the moral corruption of Nazism. Seen through a family tearing itself apart. Essential cinema. See more Read all reviews
