Hip-Hip-Hip voor de Antikrist

Summary

Book adaptation of the novel Hip-Hip-Hip voor de Antikrist by Heere Heeresma.

To hasten the return of Christ, the world is transformed into a den of iniquity, a modern Sodom and Gomorrah. On the grounds of the psychiatric institution called ‘Hoop doet leven’ (‘Hope brings life’), an aristocratic family with grown children and two servants get up to all sorts of sinful acts and orgiastic meals which are vaguely reminiscent of Marco Ferreri's La grande bouffe (1973).

Thanks to the innocence of the only mentally handicapped character in the story, Loh – played by director Roeland Kerbosch’s brother Michiel – total depravity is avoided and the return is postponed.
