Man Bites Dog
Movie • 1992 • Comedy
ReportThe activities of rampaging, indiscriminate serial killer Ben are recorded by a willingly complicit documentary team, who eventually become his accomplices and active participants. Ben provides casual commentary on the nature of his work and arbitrary musings on topics of interest to him, such as music or the conditions of low-income housing, and even goes so far as to introduce the documentary crew to his family. But their reckless indulgences soon get the better of them.

It becomes gradually apparent throughout the film that the main subject's friends are terrified of his serial killing but are too afraid to do anything about it

There is a very graphic scene where several men rape a naked woman; it starts at roughly 1:05:00 and ends around 1:06:45 (although a very graphic shot of the woman's mutilated corpse is shown immediately afterwards and stays on screen until about 1:07.)

The main character describes how to sink ‘midget’ bodies at the beginning of the movie, and I think it’s mentioned again later on

There is a scene dedicated to the murder of a black night watchman that contains many racist jokes and statements. There is a discussion between Beniot and the film crew about homosexuality in the movie industry that is insensitive but not quite hate speech

This movie is notoriously violent and gory for the sake of its statement on violence in cinema. Numerous people are shot and killed, a woman is disemboweled after being gang raped
