As a "film" it rates poorly for story and character development. It ranks highly though as an exercise in the obscure, grotesque, and taboo breaking sub-genre of art house gore. This is not high art, but it never intends to be. It is instead a love story of sorts between the living and the dead. It depicts not just the act of "loving" the dead, but shows the extreme psychology and perversion one would have to have to effectively execute the act of necrophilia. The effects are pretty top notch, if sometimes slightly silly, for such a low budget endeavor. Considering this film was made more than 20 years ago in a Germany still divided, this film breaks down walls between decency and perversity long before the Berlin wall ever fell. It is an endurance test of sorts, and will attempt to offend you at nearly every scene. Gore, necromanticism, animal slaughter, abnormal psychology, and an oddly effective and unnerving soundtrack that almost parodies the subject matter at times makes for a unique, if somewhat unsettling excursion in the limits of grotesque and indecent human behavior. This is a Litmus test for true horror geeks only, and not recommended to casual fans of the genre. However, should you have a strong constitution, iron gullet, and curiosity for life's darkest subject matters; then this is a must view.
Well aside from the animal killing abd dirty german pissing I sadly enjoyed this movie... It was everything I expect from German film making lol... so I was not disapointed. I only have to question the sanity of anyone willing to partake in necrophila. But Nekromantick was a good stylish film that delt with some very dark issues... I enjoyed this movie for everything it was and everything it wasn't. I give Nekromantick 9 out 0f 10 just for the led pipe with the condom on it ... nasty ass Nekros
Nekromantik 1-2 are probably my favorite movies of all time. They compete with each other for all-time best endings to any movie. This is a love story, between people and the corpses they have sex with. If you like disturbing twisted movies make sure to check out the Nekromatik series.

Nekromantik 2 I would give a 10, but I don't like this one too much, just random garbage.
I was looking for that one for a long time, and when I got it, I was like "What the...?!" The effects are like in Cannibal Holocaust, so, totally gore and brutal. And slimy. But the scene with the rabbit was like a cherry on a sundae. All in all, you got to have a stomach for this one.
I would have to say this is the most disturbing movie I've ever watched in all the years I've been watching movies. The film is very brutal in the way it presents itself and till the end "which is laughable" is a truly disturbing experience. I'd recommend this to just about anyone thats never seen it but its only to be viewed once and it will stick with ya.
The start of the German gore explosion came with Jorg Buttgereits masterpiece. Truly taboo trashing low budget movie that seeps into your bones and stays with you for ever. Many a nightmare will be driven by this gem of a film.

Boy works for road clean-up service, boy collects body parts in jars, with girl, boy finds body, brings it home to girl. Boy and girl have sex with body. Girl leaves boy, and takes corpse with her. Boy stabs himself to death while having a violent, bloody orgasm.
While this is a film I'm proud to have in my collection, i've watched it maybe twice in ten years. Don't expect to have sex anytime soon after watching. I give it a top rating, as it is as disturbing as it intended to be, the effects are believable, and, yeah. Shocking.
this is probably the worst, most-offensive movie you'll ever see, & imo on par with salo. i saw a bootlegged copy years ago, & all i can say is everything is pushed to the extreme. it's all about sex with the dead, & other taboo subjects. (there's animal mutilation too, so if that offends you stay away.) low-budget, cheap, yet unforgettable in it's graphic indulgence, you'll remember this one whether you like it or not.
