Synopsis:
"Creation, God and Mother Earth get the gore treatment in director E. Elias Merhige's probative and highly controversial film. Teeming with surrealistic images and chronicled without dialogue, the allegorical story opens with a white-robed deity disemboweling himself. From the entrails emanates a new spirit who impregnates herself from the carcass -- but calamity awaits her and her offspring. Definitely not for the squeamish."

"Scariest movie that was ever made in the history of Movies"

"This might sound dumb, but I actually have not seen the whole movie, but I have seen parts of it. The scariest part of the movie is when GOD is killing himself. The bizarre-looking bloody, robed man disemboweling himself scares the pejeebees out of me. I am absolutely terrified of this movie. Begotten is a wild-fire for grotesque and disgusting horror. Due to the content of this movie, it was not able to be put in theaters. In fact, it was banned in Singapore!

I found out about this movie while I was searching for Marilyn Manson music videos on YouTube. Someone had posted a video that was all black and white, and the video said Begotten on it. somehow, the video was related to what I was looking for. Being very curious, I clicked on it, and I noticed that the video had been flagged, so I looked up "Begotten" on YouTube, and I saw more black and white pictures that looked distorted. I clicked on the trailer, and as soon as I clicked on the link, the horror started. It started off with very mysterious, scary music playing in the background. I heard the man with the deep voice saying cocky things like, "It will invade your sub-conscious mind", and "You will not walk out of the theater without being marked"...

I suddenly became intrigued, and looked for more videos of "Begotten", but I underestimated how bad the movie really was. I looked up the extended trailer, and the first thing I saw was a half-naked man lying on the ground, jerking his arms and legs back-and-fourth. I know now that that was really Stephen Charles Barry. So anyway, I saw that, but before I knew it, I saw a robed mystery-man gently placing a rope around Stephen's neck, and then the man began to pull him threw the forest. Then I saw the beginning part where a bloody-robed GOD was literally throwing his internal organs on the floor. At that point, I was scared out of my mind, and the movie had invaded my sub conscious like the man in the trailer had said. I was shaking like a puppy that fell through the ice in winter time.

There were some parts that I saw that I did not understand. That movie was a big WTF. Because of the picture quality, I couldn't really see what was happening in a way I could understand. So I had to guess. I remember robed-people at night carrying a beaten person through the hills on rope. I remember a very dirty man up close with his mouth open wide, and eyes closed, and his hands were shaking fast. I really don't know what E.Elias Merhige was thinking when he made the movie, but I am now afraid to go to sleep at night, because I am afraid that the images from "Begotten" will haunt me. Erhhh... I don't know what that part was with Donna Dempsey. The part where she's standing next to a casket, but the casket slowly disappears. When I saw that part, I was like,"WTF" Begotten will change you in a way that you and I can't even imagine. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!"
