Reseñas de la crítica

This is an immensely suggestive, disturbing film, as well as a dazzlingly inventive and horribly enjoyable one.

Few movies have shown the capitulation to a totalitarian worldview more mordantly.

The Cremator (1969) constitutes what might be the Czech New Wave's most nihilistic vision... Rarely seen here and still unavailable on video, it's a darkling essay on Mitteleuropan conscience that makes most other Czechs of the day look like garden parties.

The cremator is a dark, smiling figure who could have come from a fairy tale, and everyone knows that beneath the deceptively innocuous surface of most fairy tales lies a desire to control human nature with fascism.
