Please do not send Jaime this film as it is filthy, vile, sick and distasteful. It contains ejaculating, eviscerated corpses and a strange epileptic effusing a wombat out of his mouth. Like the movie Pi it is a stylistic rip-off of David Lynch's equally repugnant film Eraserhead. Please avoid all three and seek a professional therapist instead.

i remember when i sent you a copy of it a few years ago you said, "whoever made that movie with the hooded thing beating to death the quivering mud-baby, should be killed.

he wasn't killed, just recently he made shadow of the vampire, which was not very good.

no lynch rip-off. when begotten was made ereaserhead was not yet known.

I rented Begotten and copied it. Are you sure it predates Eraserhead? Lynch made that in 1975. Begotten is a striking, unforgettable film - there are just times I don't wish to be struck and things I'd like to forget, that's all. I'm no great moralist, but am an expert upon derangement! Like my avatar?

i just looked up Begotten on imdb, they list it as released in 1991, i think it was made in 1984, or 1985, and not released till 1991. EREASERHEAD was made in 1977, and like lynch, laid around ignored for about 10 years. if my time tables are right, and they might not be, it's doubtful that the makers of Begotten saw, or heard of Ereaserhead before they embarked on their filming extravaganza.
