Sex, Lies and Video Violence (2000)
Micke is a total film nerd, who would be rather sitting home watching violent action movies than to be outside drinking and hanging out with friends. One night Micke has prepared to have an orgy of violent movies, but something rather strange interrupts his plans. While watching "Die Hard", one of the German terrorists from the film comes out of the television, and this launches a night of violence filled with known characters.

Such a frustrating disappointment
Instant Favorite.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Just saw this movie a couple of hours ago, and damn! It's one of the funniest movies I've seen. It has it all, really twisted characters. Uggla as an psychiatrist is just hilarious. The violent and gory scenes are all well done and it's non stop action from start to end. This film is hard to find though. So if you might find it don't hesitate to watch it, you will be sorry if you don't. Imagine a film with Aliens, German terrorists, ninja turtles, robocop and some other carachters you will recognize from different movies and you have sex, lögner och videovåld. All in all a really entertaining movie and one of the best to come from Sweden. Enjoy
Definetly one of my favorites when it comes to splatter-filled humour, Richard Holm & co show that you don´t need a lot of money to create something wonderfully funny and violent. Spoofing a lot of films along the way, Mikael Beckman has to fight off the Clockwork Orange-gang, Frigga from "Thriller", the Alien-monster, a German terrorist from "Die Hard" and Robocop(superbly played by football expert Tony Johansson). And yes, it IS the genuine Brandon Lee in his last starring appearence.A very hard film to come by, but if you get the chance, don´t miss it!
Take one part "Die Hard", one part "A Clockwork Orange" and one part "Alien" - shazaam, there you have "Sex, Lies & Videoviolence". Probably the coolest actionflick from Scandinavia ever, and definitively the best swedish film since "The Man on the Roof" 1976!Johan Holm and Mike Beck reflects insanity at its peek, and Tony Johansson as RoboCop makes Peter Weller looks like a Teletubbie. Don't miss it!
Sex, Lögner och Videovåld is quite a movie. Yes, the plot is mostly about showing gory effects, but the only way you can actually dislike the movie, is if you take it seriously. Personally, I found it hilarious, and the cameos by a huge bunch of (mostly Swedish) celebrities, makes this a must-see. Besides, this is actually Brandon Lee's last movie, so any fan of his, should see this.
