Product Description:
A group of bourgeois cosmopolitans are invited to a mansion for dinner and inexplicably find themselves unable to leave, in Luis Buñuel's daring masterpiece The Exterminating Angel. Made just one year after his international sensation Viridiana, this is a furthering of Buñuel's wicked takedown of the rituals and dependencies of the frivolous upper classes, full of eerie and hilarious absurdity.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - One of Bunnuel's Chef-D' oeuvre
I am waiting impatiently for Feb. 2009 to see what Criterion has to offer as far as quality in Bunnuel's tour-de-force, so as to add it to my collection. I have watched this movie since 1959 and never get tired of it. One can really fully appreciate it in its original Spanish version. If anyone has the Criterion version, please come forward!
