01
Dance with the Devil
Why this pick
De la Iglesia again combines sacrilegious excess, violent comic-book momentum, lurid crime and gleefully disreputable characters in a feverish road-movie nightmare.

02
The Last Circus
Why this pick
Its grotesque, emotionally volatile spectacle shares the original’s love of Spanish pop-cultural chaos, pitch-black jokes, operatic violence and damaged outsiders.
03
Mutant Action
Why this pick
A punkish earlier blast from the same director: a deranged criminal plot, abrasive satire, exaggerated production design and relentless anarchic energy.
04
Cemetery Man
Why this pick
This macabre Italian oddity pairs undead horror with deadpan absurdity, romantic morbidity and stylishly surreal escalation rather than straight scares.
05
The Similars
Why this pick
A rain-soaked, pressure-cooker mystery with heightened performances and an increasingly bizarre premise; it has the same affectionate appetite for pulp, dread and absurdity.

01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
The story revolves around a Basque Roman Catholic priest dedicated to committing as many sins as possible, a death metal salesman from Carabanchel, and the Italian host of a TV show on the occult. These go on a literal "trip" through Christmas-time Madrid to hunt for and prevent the reincarnation of the Antichrist.
