This movie is somewhat uncomfortable watch, seems weird, but that is perhaps necessary to gain perspective into how reality can be distorted. In the age of fake news and criminal media, advanced propaganda and lots people living in bubbles, it is perhaps refreshing to understand how weird YOU might look to an outsider. This movie can help with that, among other things. As all great art, it will make you think. Highly original and not easy to forget.

The most twisted and revolting film I have ever seen. This film is sick but an interesting study in human nature and also unfortunately entertaining. ScreenJunkies put this on my radar. I honestly do not know what to say, humans can be this sick and twisted. Just look at what is going on in Burma right now - so yeah, morally evil stuff happens a lot but now the next level horror has found its way into mainstream entertainment over the past ten years or so. Does that mean as a society, we are changing to normalize the horrors of the world as it continues to drop into the lowest common denominator where was I? Whatever. We're finished here.

I came to know about this movie in some website and saw these brilliant reviews people wrote in IMDB. So I started watching this movie with a lot of expectation. After it ended I was like wtf did I just watch. Well if you want to make a movie about unrealistic concept why not make a movie about parents who teach their children to eat shit and drink piss from their childhood? I mean if you want to make a 2 hr movie about all possible psychotic concepts u can come up with thousands of it. Though I can still see some reviewers going to term those concepts as disturbing and thus .. brilliant as well. First of all no justification was given why the parents kept those children confined inside the compound. So I guess they were nutjobs. And the children who were violent enough to brutally kill cats, strong enough to pull out their own tooth, rebel enough to have sex with each other, cant overpower and overrule two old people to gain freedom? Salt is telephone and sea is sofa .. really? So the dad had to memorize and call them in two different names in office and home everyday? lol just think about it. Also the parents who didnt give them books, didnt give them education, didnt give them any means of entertainment or bought any toys or games, are kind enough to provide a girl for the boy's sexual pleasure? Oh my god I feel my heads gonna explode stating the loopholes. But u know what its a very nice movie to spoof. That would be hilarious. I sincerely hope the writer and director take a long break and re-evaluate themselves and the primary purpose of movie making before taking the next step. And the positive reviewers should also give one visit to the nearest phychiatrist. (pardon my english)

"Dogtooth" —(Greek: Κυνόδοντας) is a "Un Certain Regard" (which recognises works that are either "innovative or different") prize winner at Cannes Film Festival and an Academy Award nominated 2009 Greek film directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. (only the fifth Greek film so honoured).The movie is made more from concepts than from imagery. Example? Most likely, the scene that makes the biggest impression is the one that best encapsulates the family's strange rituals. To celebrate their parent's wedding anniversary, the two girls perform an awkward, shuffling dance, as invented by two children who have no knowledge of choreography, while their brother accompanies them on guitar. After the younger girl bows out, the rebellious older one begins throwing her body around with bizarre, manic abandon, until her parents object to this display of individuality.The Movie: "Dogtooth" — follows a family so gripped by its patriarchal system that the entire reality and perception of the unit is distorted to horrific proportions. The father (Christos Stergioglou) is lying to himself that, by bringing up his son and two daughter's to be scared of leaving the house, is for their benefit rather than his. This idea is shown to be at its most extreme as all three of the "children" are in their early twenties and have clearly been brought up without a normal education; they believe that outside the house lies danger, that planes going over land in the garden and are in fact toys. They even believe that cats are deadly and end up killing one in fear with a set of hedge shears. The illusion, however, is being stretched by the natural instinct of their age, with the gradual questioning of the twisted father leading to some form of rebellion. The brother (Hristos Passalis), whose sexual demands are met by a paid nurse (Anna Kalaitzidou) who visits on occasions, is not being brought up to replace his father's patriarchal position (in spite of sleeping with his sister when the nurse is found out to be supplying them with sweets and a video), which suggests that this is more than simply the product of a male dominated family unit but the concluding product of a paranoid, power hungry father whose love has twisted into the most perverted kind of over-protection.
