Ένα κινηματογραφικό συνεργείο ακολουθεί κατά πόδας έναν κατά συρροή δολοφόνο καθώς εξασκεί την «τέχνη» του. Αυτός σιγά σιγά αρχίζει να εμπλέκει τα μέλη του συνεργείου στις δραστηριότητές του και αυτά αρχίζουν να αναρωτιούνται αν αυτή είναι μία καλή ιδέα ιδιαιτέρως όταν απειλείται και η δική τους ζωή. Μαύρο χιούμορ στα όρια του σαδισμού. Έγινε cult στη Γαλλία κι ανέδειξε το ταλέντο του Μπενουά Πελβούρ, ο οποίος συνυπογράφει τη σκηνοθεσία.

As far as dark satire goes, they don't get much grimmer than this. In this fake documentary a film crew follows a serial killer in order to understand his methodology and the way his mind works. In following him we get to see some gruesome murders, some hilarious dialogue but, more importantly, it also tries to say something. I love the wryness of this kind of humour. It is anything but subtle and it is as dark as it gets. Even though it is rather violent, it never is graphic. The comedy the writers have found in the situations presented to us is simply fantastic.This isn't merely fun though. The further we get in the film the more we see lines crossed as the boundaries between what is right and wrong start to vanish for everyone involved. This is done subtly in the beginning and concludes in a fantastic way.All this is great, but what makes it special is a powerhouse central performance by Benoît Poelvoorde. The matter-of-factness of his violence and the outbursts of anger are fantastic.This is an intriguing and engaging mockumentary and it, for me, ranks as one of the best.
A psychopathic serial killer carries out his business with a film crew behind him documenting everything. It's all fun and games until the crew starts participating. A unique low-budget mockumentary, if not one of the best of its genre.The film is dark, but not, oh-look-how-dark-and-edgy-I-am, dark. It's what films like August Underground failed to be. People tend to think the gorier your scenes are the more shock value you have, along came Man Bites Dog to prove these amateurs wrong. Benoit poelvoorde plays a killer who manages to repel every cliche thrown at his role, he aims his guns at old people because they make easier targets. He's both cruel and efficient, charming, too. He can recite poems, and murdered a cardiac patient by shouting to save his bullets. Fascinating, really.I feel like the three directors Benoit, Remy, and Andre (who, quite interestingly, also star as themselves in this) started filming with only a rough draft, and that the rest was improvised. I'd like to believe that's true because all the actors looked so genuine, the flow of events were so natural it's really hard to tell what was planned and what was not. Regardless of a few goofs which are rather easy to spot (corpses that blink!), Man Bites Dog deserves every bit of its 4.5 rating.Part of Axel's Project
