Here at Interference, extreme cinema is our forte - and as far as transgressive and taboo cinema goes, this double bill surely sits atop the pile.
We are proud to present Jörg Buttgereit's cult classics Nekromantik and Nekromantik 2 in all their uncut glory on the big screen!
Banned in the UK for 27 years and only granted a BBFC rating in 2014 - Nekromantik is hailed as one of the most extreme and subversive films to emerge from the German underground horror scene. An uncompromising portrayal of love, sex and death - these films are guaranteed to stick with you forever!
As usual we will be playing a selection of soundtrack material at the start of the night and in the intermission alongside the Interference Films merch stall, selling a selection of hard to find movies on blu ray and soundtracks on CD and Vinyl.
NEKROMANTIK (1988) Synopsis:
Sharing a mutual fascination for the dead and the macabre, Berlin misfits Betty and Robert are about to broaden their horizons when Rob takes a job as a cleaner at an aftermath clean-up agency. Now, nothing can stop them. And as the obsessed new employee gradually amasses a rich and grotesque collection of severed limbs and human organs right under everyone's noses, the couple's dreams will finally come true when Rob brings home an unexpected gift to impress his girlfriend: a putrid cadaver that's hers to keep. However, as one thing leads to another and Betty grows increasingly fond of her silent decomposing companion, the question arises. Can Robert handle this bizarre ménage à trois?

NEKROMANTIK 2 (1991) synopsis:
Thinking along the same lines as Rob in Nekromantik (1988), Monika, a young and beautiful Berliner, is leading a double life. By day, she is a solicitous hospital nurse; however, no one knows that Monika roams the city's graveyards at night, searching for fresh cadavers. And when Monika stumbles upon the news of an unfortunate stranger's suicide in the obituaries, things take a grotesquely unexpected turn because, in Monika's eyes, death is not always the end. As the determined woman gets to work and exhumes the cold and pale corpse of the recently deceased man, Monika does the unthinkable: she brings it home right under the nose of her new sweetheart, Mark. But under those volatile circumstances, Monika's unappeased necrophilic obsession threatens to surface, and sooner or later, she will have to make a pivotal decision. Is Monika capable of showing affection to the living, or will she give all her love to what was once alive?
