In "Rotting in the Sun," the director takes on a caricature of himself, portraying a suicidal, self-loathing artist caught in the throes of drug addiction who embarks on a quest for inner peace on a nudist beach. This film certainly doesn't refrain from pushing the boundaries of decency, boldly serving up explicit gay sex, public defecation, and meticulously calibrated jokes to humiliate every single character on screen. While it's the audacious side of the film that initially captivates (or repels) the viewer, its true value lies in its humor – smart, pitch-black, and dry. It’s a pity that it ends so roughly despite having been consistently exhilarating and well-paced for almost two hours.

Whoa! A bizarre movie. Not bad at all, just bizarre. A low budget film that maybe fits in the dark comedy genre. A movie that you think is going one way but a major plot twist suddenly turns things over. It's important to mention that it's very NC-17 classification, with explicit gay sex scenes, so if you're uncomfortable with that, maybe you should avoid it.

Bonkers. Starts of really weird, and with rather bad acting (well, this stays throughout), but then starts going off the rails good. Sebastian Silva is the worst, as he couldn't act to save his life.

Most folks here just use their own names, so it's easy to follow the characterisations as dysfunctional, ketamine-loving, "Sebastián" (Silva) encounters the drowning "influencer" Jordan Firstman in trouble just off a nudist beach. Rescued and grateful, the doggy-paddler invites his new saviour to h More
