Synopsis
“Subversive” was coined for cinema like this. Sublime — an indelible pileup of grainy grotesqueries reaching toward the heavens. A robed deity commits suicide, bringing forth Mother Earth, who leads her son on a pilgrimage beset by indescribable horrors. “A metaphysical splatter film” ( Premiere ) from director E. Elias Merhige. “Nobody will get through BEGOTTEN without being marked” ( Time Magazine ).
