I'm pretty sure if you watch this video all the way through you enter hell at some point.

I was in that church, there is about 70000 human bones, amazing work.

I wish someone would translate this. Beautiful imagery. Thanks for putting this up!

[PolichinelaAzul]

Zdenek Liska's music is beautiful, do not say the same of experiment Rint.

Live must be a terrible experience. Breathing all that death made circus.

[Threetails]

@PolichinelaAzul Yes, Svankmajer's films were never the same after Liska died in 1983. The two worked so well together.

Without an understanding of the language, it's pretty much meaningless (unlike his other works). Is there any translation of the words and song?

[mittROMNEY666]

this is cool but it doesnt have animation. the bones should come to life and dance around the altar. thats sacreligious i know but its what the fans want

[scudder91]

i much prefer this version with the music to the one on the DVD i have.

[ookaninam2013]

@scudder91 i agree. they should have put both versions on the DVD.

[Mannex17]

@scudder91 I really like the DVD version, with the tour guide being so protective of the bones

This is one of my favourite short films and Zdenek Liska's music adds such atmosphere to Jan's work.

[Mllelaurel]

This is extraordinary! Do any of you know who the singer is, and what this music is?
