What to Know

Critics Consensus

A pointless shocker and societal allegory, a film whose imagery is so gruesome as to leave you scarred for life...or rolling your eyes for 100 minutes.

Joseph Jon Lanthier Slant Magazine The rare piece of transgressive art that's more grimly meditative than satirical or allegorical, A Serbian Film's most daring aspect may be the muddle of soul-searching it demands from its audience. Rated: 3/4 May 21, 2011 Full Review Austin Chronicle Rated: 3/5 May 21, 2011 Full Review A.O. Scott New York Times "A Serbian Film" revels in its sheer inventive awfulness and dares the viewer to find a more serious layer of meaning. Rated: 2.5/5 May 12, 2011 Full Review Zoe Rose Smith Zobo With A Shotgun A Serbian Film still rips apart our morals, and deepthroats us with them until we vomit our own regrets. For me it still holds the title as most nasty, disturbing, controversial and fucked-up horror movie to ever exist. Rated: 5/5 Sep 14, 2019 Full Review C.H. Newell Father Son Holy Gore A Serbian Film seems to have more in mind than it conveys on the outer surface. But it remains effective, one gruesome way or another. Rated: 3.5/5 May 7, 2019 Full Review Daniel Green CineVue Any remnants of socio-political commentary from the film's initial scenes are ultimately washed away in a sea of sweat, blood and semen, leaving behind only the broadest, most unsophisticated of allegorical metaphors.

Louis S Disgusting just for the sake of it there’s a scene which involves the r*p* of a newborn baby it’s absolutely disgusting and so disturbing DON’T WATCH THIS it’s traumatic Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/28/24 Full Review Shawn K Wow. You know the saying “You can’t unsee something like this”. This film proves that perfectly. A washed up porn star takes a role in an “art” film. As the scenes of the film progress, things get nastier and nastier. I first saw this years ago. Sometimes I still see the baby scene when I close my eyes. What makes this film really f**ked up is that it doesn’t look like it was filmed with a flip phone. The whole thing was done very well. Watch at your own risk. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/18/24 Full Review Jesús N Había leído muchísimas veces que A Serbian Film era la peor cinta de todos los tiempos. A mí no me lo parece. Sí bien, es escandalosa en cuanto a su propuesta, el hecho de que no sea tan 'realista' amortigua de cierta forma el impacto de algunas imágenes, lo cual podría ayudar al espectador a recordar que se trata solo de un filme; enfermizo, retorcido, violento hasta la médula (casi literalmente) pero al final del día solo un filme. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Audience Member "How about we make a movie where we fuck everything and everyone we see?" Literally one of the worst movies I've ever watched. There's even a scene where a newborn gets raped and for some reason they thought it was ok to put it into the movie. Do not recommend. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/15/24 Full Review Milan D I'm not going to give a longer explanation about this movie because it doesn't deserve it. this movie doesn't deserve a lot of things. It doesn't deserve viewers, it doesn't deserve money, and above all, this film doesn't deserve to exist. in my personal opinion, this movie deserves the same as funny games 1997 and 2007. that it be banned everywhere, that all CD & DVD versions be destroyed and most of all, that all the actors, the crew and the film director find a nearby tree and HANG THEMSELVES. I can't describe what they did here, they insulted everything that is human. and therefore I wish them to burn in hell Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/09/24 Full Review Michael K I watched this because I've read so many reviews claiming this is the most disturbing movie ever made. I feel this was really just a movie made for the shock value. As if the entire goal was to, in fact, make the most disturbing movie ever. Which just made it feel empty. Sure there were a lot of grotesque and "disturbing" scenes but I didn't feel any connection to any of the characters. I didn't really care what happened to any them.
