Der Bunker

Der Bunker

Directed by Nikias Chryssos

A student rents a windowless room in a bunker nestled deep within a forest. Instead of finding tranquility for his studies, the young man (DER SAMURAI's Pit Bukowski) becomes involved in the surreal dramas of his landlord’s family. They include the stern father, his wife (whose swollen leg almost takes a life of its own) and their precocious 8-year-old son Klaus (played by 33 year-old actor, Daniel Fripan). Initially friendly and welcoming, the situation grows increasingly bizarre. A funny, visually arresting and unsettling modern fairy tale, DER BUNKER is a unique vision from bold new talent, Nikias Chryssos.

A student becomes entangled in the bizarre dramas of his landlord's family.

Cast: Pit Bukowski, Daniel Fripan, Oona von Maydell, David Scheller

Oh the horrors of infantilization and enmeshment... depicted in a subtle, yet accurate way.

I know he's not really a child and is in fact older than me, but the slapstick humor-type abuse perpetrated to Klaus almost made me cry at one point. Oy. But it was such a treat to see Pit Bukowski, who was one of my favorite actors on my favorite show, "Das Boot."

This was an unsettling psychological horror, but not in the tradition sense of horror. More like horrific how this man let himself become enmeshed into the bizarre family. This one left me with a lot of questions. How old was the son? Well there be a new son? Very disturbing!

Fantastic!! Really enjoyed it. Not for everyone, but if you like absurdist, surrealist comedy horror that will also break your heart. This is for you.
