South African enfant terrible filmmaker and artiste-cineaste Manus Oosthuizen meets with Rotten Tomatoes-approved indie film critic Babette Cruickshank in an Echo Park sound studio. With key members of Manus's crew joining, they record an audio commentary track for his new elegiac feature documentary Razzennest. But the session goes down a different path... cazzart! The ultimate elevation of arthouse horror, just not as you might expect.

Amazing on several levels. ... Brings a horrific audio drama into cinema without losing any of the power of its images or its audio-only narrative, but also succeeds in exploring the themes of the far more self-consciously artful film-within-a-film.

Morbidly Beautiful

RAZZENNEST is an utterly original auditory experiment that works as sharp satire, hilarious meta-commentary, and absolute nightmare fuel. It's so singularly odd (in the best way) that it's impossible to capture its magic through a simple review.

Rated: 4/5

This movie incorporates Swedish words in ridiculous contexts that almost make it seem like you are walking through the aisles of IKEA and reading the funny-sounding Swedish names of the household items.

Rated: 7/10

A clever and scary satire.

Projected Figures

Johannes Grenzfurthner’s feature is all at once metacinematic satire, psychogeographical experiment and fanciful ghost story rooted in real history

Razzenest is a clever detour from the formulaic horror tropes. Tension rises slowly but steady in an inventive story that shows us how the worst of people rises up to the surface when things get awry.

This was ridiculous. People left behind the golden age of the radio for a reason; a moving picture is much more entertaining. I would say this should have been an audiobook, not a movie, but there's too much happening in a confused mess of yelling and foreign language for even that to work.

Just terrible. Not a fan of this audio horror. It's interesting but nowhere near a real movie. What's up with the decisions in this to only out subtitles to every 3rd sentence when the possessed are speaking German! And the subtitles that do show up, make no sense whatsoever and you can't follow what's going on, actual video would have helped this out. masking Threshold is at least followable and much more interesting, but again, this audio only movies, nope

The images are quite arresting, but the acting is the worst in the history of history.
