"In a welcome return to cinematic tradition, the film is preceded by gifted Quebec director Pedro Pires's Danse macabre, an eight-minute multiple award-winning work of art based on the journey from life to death and beyond.
It's extraordinary dancer AnneBruce Falconer's idea and her execution, moulded by Robert Lepage and brought to the screen in ravishing detail by Pires. It is a triumph, and worth the price of admission to Antichrist, even if you leave before the main distraction."
