Lars Von Trier’s ANTICHRIST First Picture

The first picture from Lars Von Trier’s new movie ANTICHRIST, starring Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg, has been released.

Thanks to Empire, we get our first look at a pretty explicit picture.

Lars Von Trier describes Antichrist as a “psychological thriller / horror” film. The story follows a couple mourning the loss of their child, who retreats to a cabin in the woods, where they soon encounter strange, terrifying occurrences. Other sources also add that Wilem Dafoe’s character is a therapist helping his wife deal with her grief, and that when the grief runs wild, things start to get weird. And after seeing that picture above, I can definitely believe that.

In fact, I have seen my share of Charlotte Gainsbourg in some weird films like Lemming (which I am still trying to get out of my head), and since I am not usually a big fan of Lars Von Trier either, not sure if I’m looking forward to actually seeing Antichrist.

Thoughts on this?
