A group of high-society friends are invited to a mansion for dinner and find themselves inexplicably unable to leave, in Luis Buñuel’s daring masterpiece The Exterminating Angel (El ángel exterminador). Made just one year after the director’s international sensation Viridiana, this film, full of eerie comic absurdity, continues Buñuel’s wicked takedown of the rituals and dependencies of the frivolous upper classes.
"An important masterpiece amongst a filmography littered with them, The Exterminating Angel is effectively administrated social satire -- scathing and lethally subversive." - Nicholas Bell, IONCINEMA.com
"A macabre comedy, a mordant view of human nature that suggests we harbor savage instincts and unspeakable secrets." - Roger Ebert. Chicago Sun-Times
