Novecento/YMMV

• Complete Monster: Attila.
• Genius Bonus: This film, suffice to say, will make much better sense if you have a cursory knowledge of Italian history, years 1900 to 1945.
• Moral Event Horizon: Attila gets several. He goes from headbutting a kitten to death, to raping a young boy and smashing apart his head against a wall, to gleefully executing local communists.
• Narm: In one scene a peasant cuts his ear off. It's meant to be horrifying, but a combination of Special Effects Failure and the fact that the peasant doesn't so much as blink spoils it. Also, the aforementioned splattering of the little boy's head against a wall. It too, is meant to be horrifying, but it splatters just like a watermelon.
• Needs More Love
• Special Effects Failure: The aforementioned ear-cutting and head-splattering. Also, the scenes with snow. It resembles shaving cream.
• Squick: One scene features a pig being gutted. Another features a man masturbating a horse's anus to try and get it to defecate so he can throw its feces at Attila.
  • Ew. That's actually more insulting to the person who throws the shit, than to the recipient.
