Lars Von Trier is no stranger to controversy. His previous films included a scene involving Willem Defoe’s balls getting crushed causing him to cum blood, Shia Labeouf’s penis and other things cool I guess. Von Trier has been making the rounds with his new film The House That Jack Built based off of the beloved children’s book. The story follows not Jack but Matt Dillon doing sickening things to women and a black guy. The film received a mass walkout at Cannes this past week confirming the French will raise their flag for anything nowadays. If all this wasn’t enough the film will now be screened in the Râpé theater, which will be the first theater to allow rape during the screening. Von Trier stated the following: My film is one that makes the audience feel many emotions. One in particular is rape. I wanted to make the audience feel truly immersed into this film. I showed it to one of my colleagues and he started to force himself on me halfway through. I quite enjoyed it so I wanted to share that experience with everyone. I thank the Râpé theater for this amazing opportunity. Well this sure is an interesting marketing scheme and I will let you guys know how it was.
