So, as you might’ve guessed, Antichrist is one of those love-it-or-hate-it movies.

But that’s not all! Later, in an extreme closeup - lensed by Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle! - Gainsbourg cuts off her own clitoris with a pair of scissors. Next, she brings him to a climax with her hands and he ejaculates blood (yes, it’s shown). We don’t actually see his testicles become disengaged from this body, though it’s apparently implied. Then, she smashes his scrotum with some sort of blunt object (the moment of impact happens slightly below the frame). So far, no review has gone into gruesome details, though, from what we gather, here’s how it goes down, more or less: After knocking him unconscious, Gainsbourg bores a hole in Dafoe’s leg with a hand drill and bolts him to a grindstone to keep him from escaping. Are you sure you actually want to read this? Really? Really? Okay! We suppose the following could technically be considered a spoiler, though we can’t imagine anyone would want to be taken by surprise by something like this in a movie theater. So what does she do, exactly? Read on only if you want to skip lunch and cross your legs for the rest of the day! Why? The movie features graphic sex and a talking fox, but most controversial, apparently, are a pair of vivid scenes in which Gainsbourg’s character, who’s off her meds, commits acts of unprintable violence on the couples’ genitals (raves Variety: “ finds a way to impale him that Hollywood’s leading torture-porn experts will kick themselves over not having dreamed up first”).

The director’s Antichrist - starring Charlotte Gainsbourg and Willem Dafoe as a husband and wife grieving the death of their young son - made its debut at the film festival yesterday, earning loud boos and baffled reviews. Leave it to Lars von Trier to spoil a perfectly pleasant Sunday evening at Cannes with graphically depicted sexual mutilation.
