Product Information
This collection features two gruesome horror films by Spanish director Nacho Cerda: AFTERMATH and GENESIS. AFTERMATH is a short, half-hour film that has a minimal plot but maximizes its opportunities for gore. The soundtrack to the film is entirely made of effects and music, and the handsome 35mm cinematography contrasts sharply with its ultra-realistic depictions of autopsies and necrophilia. A coroner finds himself with a series of corpses upon which autopsies must be performed. After finishing with most of the bodies, he comes to the final one, a beautiful young woman who has died tragically. Her appearance awakens a bizarre desire in him, and the execution of this final autopsy takes a shocking turn from the others. GENESIS concentrates more on an extensive plot and theme, but still carries with it Cerda's taste for disturbing makeup and special effects. Seemingly inspired by the classic Greek tale of Pygmalion, GENESIS concerns a sculptor whose wife has died suddenly in a car accident. Unable to cope with his grief, he begins to create a sculpture in her image. But as his work progresses, the sculpture begins to become flesh and blood, even as its maker's own skin becomes hard and stonelike. Nacho Cerda has garnered a reputation as a cult horror director, and his two major films AFTERMATH and GENESIS prove that he deserves that status.Product Identifiers
