Melancholie der Engel is a 2009 German independent extreme horror film directed, shot, and edited by Marian Dora, who co-wrote the screenplay with Carsten Frank. The film stars Frank and Zenza Raggi as old friends who reunite and return to a house with a dark past. Melancholie der Engel premiered at the Weekend of Fear Festival on 1 May 2009, and polarised critics upon release; some praised Dora's cinematography, but most condemned the film as an exploitative work showing repetitive and meaningless depravity to communicate a nihilistic message. Its depictions of sexual violence and legitimate animal cruelty have garnered widespread controversy. Despite its negative reception, it became a cult film amongst fans of extreme cinema.
