Plot



The end of the world is imminent. A man goes into a parallel dimension, a limbo between reality and fantasy where the normal rules of time and space have ceased to apply.Pritchard, Paul [http://www.pulpmovies.com/2010/10/maximum-shame/ "Maximum Shame"] , 'Pulpmovies', October 4, 2010. His wife goes to rescue him.Serrano Cueto, Jos Manuel [http://pasionporelcine.es/blog/maximum-shame-una-partida-de-ajedrez-sado-mental "Maximum Shame: una partida de ajedrez sado-mental"] , 'Pasin por el cine', May 17, 2010. Both will be trapped in a strange and cruel world where a ruthless Queen organizes reality as a mad game of chess, a post-apocalyptic dystopia of domination and subjugation where characters cant eat, speak or move about freely and are periodically viciously attacked.Everleth, Mike [http://www.badlit.com/?p=4542 "Maximum Shame"], 'Bad Lit - The journal of underground film review', June 28, 2010.

Notes



'Maximum Shame' is the third feature movie by Carlos Atanes. It can be framed as the previous ones'FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions' and 'Proxima'within the fantasy genre. Produced completely independently, like all its author's films, it was supposedly inspired by pornographic 70's films. Thereby recovering the underground, transgressive and weird style that characterized Atanes' early work.Fernndez Fidalgo, Paloma [http://almargen.info/2010/06/15/carlos-atanes-cine-distinto "Carlos Atanes, cine distinto"], 'Al margen', June 15, 2010. Shooting, in English, was developed in Spain over just six days, but one scene was made in the UK with British scream queen Eleanor James.[http://www.eleanor-james.com/#/wwweleanor-jamescom/4534045937 Eleanor James] The film was a failure upon release.
