The film “The Death King” was directed by Jorg Buttgereit in 1989. It tells the story of a chain letter causing tragedies among its recipients. Seven people who receive the letter end up committing suicide on different days of the week.
Buttgereit’s trademark graphic and unsettling imagery is present throughout the film, including scenes of decomposing bodies and graphic torture involving Nazis and castration.
The movie carries a level of controversy typical of Buttgereit’s work but does not reach the extreme levels of his previous films Nekromantik and Nekromantik 2.
“The Death King” falls within the genres of Horror and Drama. It carries an MPAA rating of NR, suggesting it is not suitable for children.
