Double feature day.

I'm going to give you two films today. Both are fairly short, about a half hour long each. This is the AFTERMATH/ GENESIS double feature from film maker, Nacho Cerda.

 I'll focus on each film one at a time. So here is AFTERMATH first.

 Here it is on YouTube.

I must be quite frank about this film. It's pretty hardcore. A very nasty and bloody film. If you are the squeamish type, pass on this film and go straight to GENESIS. Avoid AFTERMATH at all costs.

I'll try to keep the pics as clean as possible but this AFTERMATH, so there will be gory pictures here. It is a very messed up film. The guy above is a morgue attendant who prepares the bodies of the dead, which are usually horribly maimed accident victims.

This creep, who never speaks, takes his job to a new level though.

When he gets the body of a dead woman, he begins to live out his fantasies and "has his way" with the corpse, taking pictures along the way.

I think you know what I am implying. AFTERMATH is truly heinous and horrific. It will only appeal to extreme gorehounds and people who are used to this kind of film. It is made for a very small fringe audience. So be warned. That's what I am saying.

Now lets move to to GENESIS.

Here it is on YouTube as well.

GENESIS takes a totally different direction from AFTERMATH and is far more suitable for general horror audiences. It tells the story of a sculptor who loses his wife. He begins to sculpt her likeness out of clay.

But as the story progresses, the art begins to bleed.

All the while, the artist begins to dry and crackle, breaking out in grey patches. The end is becoming the beginning and the beginning is becoming the end. It's actually pretty interesting to watch.

Spanish director, Nacho Cerda is responsible for both films and are actually considered pieces of a trilogy, with his short film, AWAKENING.

His films, even with the disturbing content, show an understanding of the film medium and both are shot very well. GENESIS comes off more like a piece of art in of itself while AFTERMATH seems to have been made to see how envelopes it could push in a half hour time limit.
