The Death King1990

Horror Vault's take

From Jörg Buttgereit, the provocateur behind Nekromantik, comes a deeply unsettling anthology that assigns a different face of violent death and suicide to each day of the week. Across seven vignettes, the film builds a cold, clinical portrait of human suffering stripped of sentimentality or redemption. It is less a conventional horror experience than a confrontational meditation on mortality, despair, and the fragility of the will to live — one that refuses to look away.
