Synopsis

In Schlingensief’s alternative vision of German reunification, a group of East German emigrants encounter a West German family of psychotic butchers. As the film’s tagline suggests: ‘They came as friends and became sausage!’

MUBI's take

Notorious troublemaker Christoph Schlingensief flexes his anarchic muscle in The German Chainsaw Massacre. Part of his German trilogy, this brash provocation distills the gory elements of grindhouse cinema with avant-garde techniques into a mischievous political satire of apocalyptic proportions.
