Damn.

Thats exactly what I said after watching this film.

I won't lie to you, I tried to watch it once and was revolted so much I turned the movie off half-way through. The title is pretty self-explanatory.

A young guy named Rob works for a cleaning service who goes out and cleans up dead bodies after accidents. Robs got a sick little hobby, he likes to steal body parts from the scenes and keep them in jars at home. His girlfriend is cool with this and proves herself to be equally, if not more, sick in the brain than he is.


One day, while at work an almost completely decayed body is found in a swamp. So our buddy, the freak, decides he wants to steal the body and take it home. There will be corny upbeat music playing during a scene that will have your inner soul gag in revulsion.

--This was the part of the film where I stopped and walked off in complete disgust the first time-- You will wonder why but you will get no answers.

To Robs surprise, after losing his highly appealing job, he finds that his wacko girlfriend has left him for the corpse. I mean Rob is one ugly dude, but I'm sure most would prefer him to a rotting corpse.

One element missing from the movie was definitely character development, if you can even get past the actions that they perform.

Rob spends the rest of the film having weird dreams, attempting suicide and my all time favorite- bathing with a cats innards. Just when you think the movie has done all it can, the last five minutes will keep you guessing. It will be the most original self-inflicting wound you have ever seen and you might just react with laughter. That's what I did, because honestly, it's just that outrageous.

This is one German film I guarantee will cause a physical reaction from just about anyone.
