Or is it pretentious arty shite?

What's the verdict?

I love it, yes it is arty and pretentious (but not enough to turn me off, i used to watch a fair bit of arthouse stuff but can't really be arsed so much these days).

It's a unique film that contains enough macabre and gothic touches to be worth recommending.

Here's a trailer, make sure you watch till the end where the horror elements come into play.
It gives a good idea of what to expect.
