German film director Jorg Buttgereit was born on December 20, 1963. Jörg spent his childhood in Berlin and spent his entire life there.
Buttgerright was born in West Berlin at a time when the Berlin Wall divided the two parts of Germany and Germany was part of an alien bourgeois world. Since childhood, the boy had the opportunity to watch all sorts of horror films with monsters in cinemas, and these first childhood impressions influenced his adult creativity.
Jörg has been experimenting with cinema since 1977. His first project was a parody of television commercials. Several shorts filmed at the time were a disappointing pen break. The first successful short film parodying horror films was called
"Paradise of Horrors" . Filmed in 1984, it was a kind of training before the first feature film, which brought him fame three years later, Necromantic. This scandalously cynical film told about a guy who from work regularly brought various human organs, and once dragged and half-rotten corpse. The spectacle is not for the faint of heart.
Ambiguous assessments were caused by the subsequent film of the director “King of Death”, released in 1990. The grim story of a man who decided to end his life, but before the death of the sender of letters, which provoked readers to also go to the underworld, left a heavy sediment, but made the viewer think about a lot.
In 1991, Jörg shot Necromantic-2, which shocked the audience even more than Necromantic-1, and three years later, fans of this spectacle could “enjoy” the film “Scar” about a taxi pervert, a murderer, madly in love with his neighbor, a sadomasochist prostitute.
In 2009, the comedy Captain Berlin vs. Hitler was released. Jörg’s work was repeatedly criticized and repeatedly banned. However, he has fans who see more than a twisted fantasy in his films. But, as they say, everyone has his own.
