Grizzly Man director Werner Herzog is back with another hellishly intense documentary, Encounters at the End of the World, now playing in limited release.

There is a hidden society at the end of the world. One thousand men and women live together under unbelievably close quarters in Antarctica, risking their lives and sanity in search of cutting-edge science.  Now, for the first time, an outsider has been admitted. In his first documentary since GRIZZLY MAN, Werner Herzog, accompanied only by his camerman, traveled to Antarctica, with rare access to the raw beauty and raw humanity of the ultimate Down Under.

Keep in mind, with Werner Herzog narrating, pretty much anything seems hellishly intense.  His voice makes the paint on my walls peel. I’d like to see him make a movie about the mating habits of bunnies.  Oont ven I look een za eyes uff za bunny rabbit I see not za cute oont cuddly pet mit za ears oont za fur, but za cold eendifference, za nosinkness of nature, round pools descending eento sheer BLACKNESS!
