 Possession must surely rank as one of the most gory and shockingly anarchistic horror (nieje to horor, gnd) films made in the 1980s (which is saying something – this was after all the decade of the video nasty). The film has certainly lost some of the impact which won it instant notoriety on its initial release in 1981 but it remains a palpably bizarre and unsettling cinematic experience, alternating between the patently ridiculous and the down-right disturbing. Possession must surely rank as one of the most gory and shockingly anarchistic horror (nieje to horor, gnd) films made in the 1980s (which is saying something – this was after all the decade of the video nasty).

-Man Bites Dog is a satirical, Belgian, black comedy mockumentary starring Benoît Poelvoorde. Released in 1992, its original French language title is C'est arrivé près de chez vous (It Happened Close to Your House), which derives from the former title of the local daily news report in Belgian newspaper Le Soir.[citation needed] In the film, a crew of filmmakers follow a serial killer, recording his crimes and grotesquely candid commentary for a documentary they are producing. At first dispassionate observers, they find themselves caught up in the increasingly chaotic violence. +Man Bites Dog is a satirical, Belgian, black comedy mockumentary starring Benoît Poelvoorde.
