Peter Brunner directs Lucifer, an experimental art house film in the Alps. A mother lives with her mentally challenged son in a small wooden hut. When the area where her house stands is about to be sold in order to create a ski resort, the story drifts into cruelty. There are films that make you wonder, why did they do that? What is the purpose? Are few. This is one of them. What was this rubbish I watched? It's not scary, it doesn't make any sense, it's horrible. The film certainly left me with unanswered questions and the plot is a bit weak. Luzifer offers complex images but it also lacks a similarly substantive philosophy or greater statement. It did not go at all where I expected, or really wanted, it to go. The pacing was too slow, too draggy for me. Couldn't you take out at least one of those damn drones with a club?
