Rohtenburg

Just when you thought you had seen, read, heard some of the most fucked up things in the world, I present Rohtenburg:

BERLIN (Reuters) "The movie tells the tale of fictional American criminal psychology student Katie (Keri Russell) who is drawn in by the bizarre case of a Meiwes-like character called Oliver Hartwin.

The cannibal plot of the movie, seen in a preview on Tuesday, is almost identical to real-life events. It also shows a younger Hartwin as a loner forced by a domineering mother to wear Lederhosen at school. Like Meiwes, he dreams up an imaginary friend.

Later, as a computer repairman, Meiwes's career, he is drawn to the "Cannibal Cantina" Web site in his search for a willing victim, who he finds in Simon Grombek.

"I want you to bite off my thing. Are your teeth strong enough?" Grombek asks in one of the movie's more startling lines."

"Meiwes severed his victim's penis and they both tried to eat it, initially raw then fried. The bizarre scene is also part of the movie, Hartwin serving up the dish for a candlelit knife-and-fork meal for himself and a weakening Grombek."

Speaking of bizarre German things:
A year or so ago I read a news article about a German couple that didn't know about sex. They went to a fertility clinic because they weren't having any babies, the doctor asked them how often they had sex, and they went "Huh???"

Serious.
