So What Happens to Willem Dafoe’s Genitals in Lars Von Trier’s Antichrist, Anyway? -- Vulture -- Entertainment & Culture Blog -- New York Magazine (http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2009/05/so_what_happens_to_willem_dafoes_genitals.html)
So far, no review has gone into gruesome details, though, from what we gather, here's how it goes down, more or less: After knocking him unconscious, Gainsbourg bores a hole in Dafoe's leg with a hand drill and bolts him to a grindstone to keep him from escaping. Then, she quickly smashes his scrotum with some sort of blunt object (the moment of impact happens slightly below the frame). We don't actually see his testicles become disengaged from this body, though it's apparently implied. Next, she bring him to a climax with her hands and he ejaculates blood (yes, it shows this). But that's not all! Later, in an extreme closeup — lensed by Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle! — Gainsbourg cuts off her own clitoris with a pair of scissors.
