The House That Jack Built

USA in the 1970s. We follow the highly intelligent Jack over a span of 12 years and are introduced to the murders that define Jack's development as a serial killer. We experience the story from Jack's point of view, while he postulates each murder is an artwork in itself. As the inevitable police intervention is drawing nearer, he is taking greater and greater risks in his attempt to create the ultimate artwork. Along the way we experience Jack's descriptions of his personal condition, problems and thoughts through a recurring conversation with the unknown Verge - a grotesque mixture of sophistry mixed with an almost childlike self-pity and psychopathic explanations. The House That Jack Built is a dark and sinister story, yet presented through a philosophical and occasional humorous tale.

제작에 의의는 있으나 감독의 오만함으로 가득찬 영화. 맷 딜런 연기는 좋았다.

살인을 예술로 승화시키려고 노력했지만 실패한 영화.

라스 폰 트리에 + 사이코패스... 끊임없이 합리화와 영화계 불문율을 깨는 모습들을 보면 어이가 없기도 하지만 연출력과 편집의 리듬은 인정할 수 밖에 없다
