Schramm (1993)
2/10
Usual Buttgereit, appalling and disgusting

Warning: Spoilers
"Schramm" is a movie by German underground filmmaker Jörg Buttgereit and let me start right away with the best thing, probably the only good thing. It only runs for slightly over an hour. Then again, he has also made short films, so maybe not even this is a good aspect. If you know Buttgereit, you know what to expect. Lack of story, bad acting and everything the movie does is follow up on one disgusting scene with the next one. It doesn't matter if it's sexual, violent or sexist. There is nothing wrong with that if you manage to constrict a convincing story about these displays, like Tarantino does for example all the time, but Buttgereit does not and he simply has no talent as a filmmaker at all. This is a repulsive film from start to finish. It is kinda interesting to see some cast members' names, such as Xaver Schwarzenberger or lead actor Florian Koerner von Gustorf and what direction their careers took in the 20 years after this film here. Quite a good chance that this is the worst career effort by many people in here. Unless they starred in other Buttgereit films. Highly not recommended.
