# Der Todesking (1989)

1989 · 74 min · Drama, Horror · Germany


## Synopsis

Der Todesking is a 1990 German horror film directed by Jörg Buttgereit. This experimental-style movie, which does not use central characters, explores the topic of suicide and violent death in the form of seven episodes, each one attributed to one day of the week. These episodes are enframed by the vision of a human body, slowly rotting during the course of the movie.
