Synopsis:
A visionary and bizarre slice of Mexican cinema, 'We Are the Flesh' is an extraordinary and unsettling film experience, a sexually charged and nightmarish journey into an otherworldy dimension of carnal desire and excess, as well as a powerful allegory on the corrupting power of human desire. A young brother and sister, roaming an apocalyptic city, take refuge in the dilapidated lair of a strange hermit. He puts them to work building a bizarre cavernous structure, where he acts out his insane and depraved fantasies. Trapped in this maddening womb-like world under his malign influence, they find themselves sinking into the realms of dark and forbidden behaviour.
Mixing the graphic, powerful imagery of Gaspar Noe's 'Love' and 'Enter the Void' with the surreal, hallucinatory impact of Alejandro Jodorowsky, 'We Are the Flesh' is a bizarre, psychedelic head trip, mixing intense, outrageously explicit imagery with a profound allegory on the nature of existence, to make this an unforgettable, boundary-pushing experience unlike anything you've ever seen.

Ugh! - We Are the Flesh review by Andy g

Spoiler Alert

I'm seen some extreme movies before but this film is wrong on every way. I recommend Cinema Paradiso take this off their list.
