Climax

Climax depicts the unhinged madness that takes over a dance troupe's party after a punchbowl of sangria is spiked with LSD. Beneath strobing lights and pounding music each dancer's psyche begins to crumble, and creeping paranoia gives rise to a hallucinatory nightmare.

Legendary art-house provocateur Gaspar Noé (Love, Enter the Void) delivers an intensely deranged and lurid orgy of sex, drugs, and club music (featuring Cerrone, Daft Punk and Aphex Twin); taking us into the forbidden reaches of heaven and descending deep into hell.

Critic Reviews:

• " Cranking up the decibels, and with nausea-inducing camera work, it's a sensual overload that will have your heart pounding. " – Joseph Walsh

• " Noé has made what might be his most accessible and, yes, tender film to date, teasing the idea of heavenly bliss – before heading straight to hell. " – Hau Chu

• " [Noe's] grandiose and more than a little bit mad. If you think too hard about what Climax means, the film deflates. " – Sheila O'Malley
