The Cremator DVD

Juraj Herz's film The Cremator has been described in many ways - as surrealist-inspired horror, as expressionist fantasy and as a dark and disturbing tale of terror.
This brilliantly chilling film, a mix of Dr. Strangelove and Repulsion, is set in Prague during the Nazi occupation. It tells the story of Karl Kopfrkingl (Hrusinsky), a professional cremator, for whom the political climate allows free rein to his increasingly deranged impulses for the 'salvation of the world'.
