The director of these wild and crazy fucked up movies can best be described as the next David Lynch
with a little bit of David Cronenberg thrown in for good measure…”
GOREHOUNDS UNITE

“Atanes proudly follows in the footsteps of fellow Spanish surrealist filmmakers Luis Bunuel and
Fernando Arrabal and has crafted a trio of bizarrely demented short films…”
Mike Everleth for BADLIT

“Atanes has a unique and powerful cinematic vision…”
David Carter for FILM FANADDICT

“Certainly the perfect title for those who think they’ve seen it all.”
MONDO DIGITAL

“Definitely not a story collection for everyone. Carlos Atanes makes completely strange scenarios
very interesting with his powerful visuals. While I though this would be some crappy experimental
wannabe art master piece, I must say that I quite enjoyed it. This is the first thing I need to show
to my movie watching buddies…”
Berislav Kucan for EVILDREAD

“Codex Atanicus was a very good experience into the world of bizarre storytelling and surreal imagery
that kept me glued to the screen….”
Anthony Thurber for FILM ARCADE

“Most people will agree that Arantxa Peña steals the show with her introuctuction,
where she even makes drinking a glass of milk erotic, before launching into three short films
by director Atanes, all of which he plays a part in. What the director has done is splice three shorts
into a feature film, one of which should probably not be viewed unless drunk, on drugs or deranged.
It is a little bit Fellini, a little bit Ed Wood, a little bit John Waters and all weird.”
Dale Pierce for (RE) SEARCH MY TRASH

“Come one come all to this twisted festival of fucked up fun!…”
The Angry Princess for HORROR-FANATICS

“If you are a fan of David Lynch, or simply wish to have a new and original cinema experience,
check out Carlos Atanes’ film collection CODEX ATANICUS…”
Nic Brown for BMOVIEMAN

“Die Kurzfilmsammlung CODEX ATANICUS bietet dem Zuschauer experimentelle Filme des
Regisseurs Carlos Atanes, von dem wir in Zukunft mit Sicherheit noch hören werden.
Zarte Gemüter hingegen sollten die Fingerchen von dieser Schreibe lassen…”
Janosch Leuffen for BLAIRWITCH
