YMMV / Nekromantik

• Audience-Alienating Premise: It's basically Necrophilia: The Movie.
• Awesome Music: Similar to Riz Ortolani's work on Cannibal Holocaust, the score by Hermann Kopp, Daktari Lorenz, and John Boy Walton is incredibly beautiful out of context, in sharp contrast to the film's ugly subject matter. For a sample, here's the main theme.
• Bile Fascination: The film has a horrible subject matter... but a lot of people want to see how horrible it is.
• Everyone Is Jesus in Purgatory: Gets this a lot. There's a scene where Rob imagines himself wearing a crown of thorns while assembling a crucifix, which bleeds once the Jesus figurine is placed on it.
• Faux Symbolism: A lot of people have seen the film as featuring symbolisms for... something, even though the filmmakers admitted to doing the film mostly just to mess with with overly-strict censorship of West Germany as a Take That!.
• Moral Event Horizon: Rob killing the prostitute. While his necrophilia and him killing a cat, while horrific, could be excused as not directly harming anything alive and done in a fit of angst after Betty leaves him, respectively, killing the prostitute marked the point of no return for him.
• Nausea Fuel: Among other bits of nastiness, the film features footage of an actual rabbit being skinned, sex scenes involving corpses, and culminates in the main character killing himself while ejaculating.
• Signature Scene: It's split between the threesome with Rob, Betty, and the corpse and the rabbit killing.
• Special Effects Failure: The lower half of the cemetery groundkeeper's head that Rob decapitates is a rather obvious mannequin.
• Squick: The premise of the film alone qualifies as this.
• Too Bleak, Stopped Caring: This is a movie where the lead characters are necrophiles doing fucked up things. What did you expect?
