The crazy story about the man in the monkey mask on his odyssey through the torture garden of deviant pleasures continues. In 2551.02 – THE ORGY OF THE DAMNED, director Norbert Pfaffenbichler continues his boundary-pushing saga with an odyssey that delves deep into a grotesque underground universe devoid of taboos, especially those concerning good taste. This sequel, part of a planned trilogy, picks up where its predecessor left off, thrusting audiences into a dystopian world where deviancy and pain reign supreme. The protagonist, a man in a monkey mask, embarks on a perilous journey to rescue an abandoned child, navigating through a maze of perversions and violence. With a distinctive no-budget creativity, Pfaffenbichler revives the punk ethos of true independent cinema, offering a visually arresting experience characterized by its absence of dialogue, bizarre masks, and a society hidden away in an underground realm. The film’s narrative, inspired by Charlie Chaplin's "The Kid," is propelled by silent film aesthetics, blending elements of slapstick violence, twisted sexuality, and dark humor. As the monkey man is pursued by a plague doctor and his minions, he encounters various grotesque figures and experiences moments of unexpected tenderness and eroticism amidst the chaos. The use of industrial and classical music further enriches the film's immersive atmosphere, making it a compelling fusion of horror, erotica, and satire. 2551.02 – THE ORGY OF THE DAMNED has been acclaimed for its innovative staging and its bold exploration of themes related to sexuality, gender, and societal decay. Pfaffenbichler's work challenges viewers with its explicit content and surreal imagery, positioning the film as a unique and provocative entry in contemporary cinema.
