Entertainment Reviews:
4 stars out of 5 -- It's melodramatic, explicit, bleak -- and it looks and sounds incredible....A harrowing exploration of gender, grief and the power of nature...
Total Film
The images will singe your eyeballs. Dafoe and Gainsbourg, who won the Best Actress prize at Cannes, fills the screen with ferocity and feeling.
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3/5 --
Yes, Antichrist is harrowing and often shrill, but the horrors all serve the underlying theme that, try as they might, men can never fully understand the inconsolable grief women endure when they lose a child.

The Age (Australia)
A beautiful battery of depraved images and irrational associations, Lars von Trier's two-handed essay in horror is as distracting and deadening as depression itself.

Projected Figures
Rating: 3/4 --
Von Trier, never exactly an optimist, has never been this gloomy and pessimistic. Antichrist is the feel-bad movie of the year.
Miami Herald
Charlotte truly excelled by bringing her usual brand of depressive confusion as a grieving mother in a state of constant anxiety and guilt. She epitomizes the shy "it girl" gone dark. In a way, she became Tiers muse...

Film Threat
Antichrist is deftly made, visually atmospheric and has, at its heart, two of the rawest, bravest performances you will probably ever see. It's also horrible and therein lies the rub, I suppose.

The Spectator
Product Description:
Only two actors, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Willem Defoe, inhabit the space of this supernatural thriller directed by Lars Von Trier. The stars play a couple who attempt to grieve for their dead child by living in seclusion in the middle of a forest. But their story does not end there: in the forest, they encounter pure evil in Satan. With Von Trier at the helm, ANTICHRIST promises to be a challenging, intelligent film that doesn’t adhere to the conventions of cinema or religion.
