HAVE YOU SEEN BEGOTTEN?
I think you might like it. Here’s the trailer.
Since the DVD of Elias Merhige’s amazing film is kind of rare now, I believe, you can watch the whole film here. If you’re feeling like being altered now. Happy Memorial Day.

” . . . makes ‘Eraserhead’ seem like ‘Ernest Saves Christmas'” LOL!
The blurbs alone have persuaded me to give this a viewing. Actually I shouldn’t say “the blurbs alone”–the cast of characters also seemed intriguing:
God Killing Himself
Mother Earth
Son of Earth (Flesh on Bone)
Thanks for sharing, Nick!
I love films that are rituals. ‘Decasia’ has somewhat of a similar quality for me.
love this film but i think it would be hard to watch all the way through on a computer..you may be able to find it on VHS at your local video store (if its still in business)
Begotten is a truly unforgettable viewing experience. It’s really a shame the DVD is hard to find now — this is really effective on the biggest screen at your disposal in the darkest room in your house. Merhige’s short film Din of Celestial Birds is also worth a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhHPLo1ELpg

Love Begotten. Hadn’t heard about Din of Celestial Birds. Thanks, Caketrain!
Had missed out on Decasia, too. Thanks, I!

I agree with this, watching this film on an old shitty VHS tape on a tiny tv at 5 in the morning ended up resulting in my favorite viewing experience of it.
