Baš me veseli da vas obavestim da se jedan od najjačih filmova prošle godine, a svakako najbolji srpski u poslednjih iha-ha, polagano penje i tamo gde mu je mesto – na svetske liste!
Znao sam da je taj film pravi materijal za ukus organizatora najboljeg weirdo-horror-mondo festivala na svetu, montrealske FANTASIA-e, i srećom, Mladen im je poslao screener. Rezultati su: a) poziv na učešće na tom prestižnom festivalu, i b) visoko kotiranje PORNO BANDE na godišnjoj listi selektora i jednog od dvojice glavnih ljudi tog festa, Mitcha Davisa!
Koliki je to car jasno je već i kad vidite da na njegovoj listi nema ni AVATARA ni DISTRIKTA 9 ni ostalih južual saspekta sa generičkih listi. Ali zato, na njegovoj godišnjoj listi nalaze se sledeći filmovi:
11. IN THE LOOP
10. DRAG ME TO HELL
9. THE CLONE RETURNS HOME (Kurôn wa kokyô wo mezasu)
8. ANTICHRIST
7. A SERIOUS MAN
6. INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS
5. THE LIFE AND DEATH OF A PORNO GANG (Zivot i smrt porno bande)
4. ENTER THE VOID (Soudain le vide)
3. PONTYPOOL
2. AMER
1. LOVE EXPOSURE (Ai no mukidashi)

Ako vas zanima obrazloženje, za svaki od tih 11 filmova, pogledajte detalje OVDE; a ako vas mrzi da klikćete, evo šta je Mič reko o BANDI:
5. THE LIFE AND DEATH OF A PORNO GANG (Zivot i smrt porno bande)
Simply put, this is the gutsiest, most shocking film of 2009. It is to Serbian culture what CLOCKWORK ORANGE was to Great Britain. With this film, about a travelling "porno cabaret" who travel from village to village performing unusual live sex acts as a means of sexual confrontation, before taking their disciplines into darker, deadlier places, writer/ director Mladen Djordjevic joins ranks with Gaspar Noé, Lars Von Trier, Takashi Miike and Michael Haneke as one of the most daring and provocative filmmakers working today. You likely haven't heard of this film because, aside from the always-great Raindance Film Festival in the UK, most fests have been too scared to go near it (to be fair, the film does plainly break obscenity codes in many parts of the world)
