Not my favorite haneke but it still remains a delight.
I like how it portrays information and the idea of knowing being a vital doom for someone. Its not as effective and I think a lot of the shock isn't as well used as in something like Benny's video, its still decent.
What im liking so far about micheal haneke so far is his portrayal of violence and while yes he is a provocative director i think just the sudden burst of violence and blood with all the silence that comes with it is right up my alley.(Watch my filmography: https://boxd.it/2A45h )

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A creeping psychological thriller that uses mundane domesticity as a pressure cooker, building dread through what is *not* shown as much as what is. It dares to end ambiguously, leaving you uneasy and suspicious, of the film, of the characters, of yourself.
