Taxidermia Ratings & Reviews
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
And now a word of advice from your friendly film critic: If you go to see the Hungarian black comedy Taxidermia, don't plan to eat afterward.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Taxidermia is a brilliant, often grotesquely bizarre allegory on life in Hungary from World War II to the present, a surrealist fantasy exploring the limits of the body and its desires and altogether a darkly funny comedy.
AV Club
Noel Murray
Taxidermia is frequently funny, for those who can stomach it.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Produces nightmarish horror and formal beauty in a surreal, Central European blend.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Visually dazzling and outlandishly obscene.
Slant Magazine
Bill Weber
Taxidermia is merely slimy biological vaudeville.
Variety
Eddie Cockrell
Taxidermia sets a benchmark for body horror in the cinema.
New York Press
Simon Abrams
Plfi's skill at making something as churlishly repulsive as a scene of self-mummification completely mesmerizing is a testament to his unparalleled dedication to imaginary grotesques.
Village Voice
Ed Gonzalez
All this helps to shape Plfi's crudely bombastic but impressive philosophical view of the body as landscape and art, a source of personal discovery, wonder, and annihilation.
The Hollywood Reporter
Duane Byrge
Tthose who reveled in such cinematic synapses as the eyeball being slit in Un Chien Andalou will gravitate toward this outrageous, and frequently hilarious, piece de film.
ColeSmithey.com
Cole Smithey
Visionary Hungarian director Gyorgy Palfi ("Hukkle") creates a grotesque satire that dissects Hungary's nationalist self identity with a pitch black sense of humor and extended gross-out sequences...
Cinematical
Scott Weinberg
I still have next to no freaking idea what I just sat through, but (despite the surreal ugliness of the thing) I can't say I actually regret watching it.
TheFilmFile.com
Dustin Putman
Nothing if not an intriguing failure. One does not care about what happens so much as one grows increasingly alarmed at where director Gyorgy Palfi will take his film next.
Premiere Magazine
Aaron Hillis
In the grotesque storybook satire Taxidermia, Palfi's so-thought cynicism is merely observing plain (if sickeningly hilarious) truths about our excesses... an intense, disgusting, and probably brilliant experience.

Chris Cabin
Plfi's fascination with the body -- its daily excretions and emanations -- borders on obsession
MovieMartyr.com
Jeremy Heilman
Despite non-stop horror and perversity, nothing in the movie seems gratuitous. Its vision remains so comprehensive and convincing that it justifies everything that it puts you through.
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
Five-star direction, however, can only take you so far if your audience have followed their stomach contents out of the building.
