Directed by Magnus Blomdahl, Revisiting Melancholie der Engel (Sweden - 2017) is a 60-minute documentary film that delves into the brutal and chilling Melacholie der Engel (Germany - 2009) by Marian Dora (Cannibal). Nel film è coinvolto in prima persona anche Marian Dora, un regista che usa diversi pseudonimi e che non ama mostrarsi in pubblico (durante l'intervista il suo viso è costantemente oscurato da pixel).

Revisiting Melancholie der Engel
è principalmente dedicato ad una porzione di nicchia del pubblico horrorofilo, agli appassionati del cinema underground tedesco, in particolare, al titolo estremo dell'anonimo filmmaker verso cui Magnus Blomdahl sembra avere una vera e propria adorazione.
In fact, this documentary contains the cut scenes, all the locations (Marian Dora himself showed them to Magnus Blomdahl for Revisiting Melancholie der Engel) and a general discussion of Melancholie der Engel, extreme horror film thick with atrocities, perversions, depravity and devoid of morality.

The sixty minutes of Revisiting Melancholie der Engel alternano parti dell'intervista a sopralluoghi e a scene tratte dal film del 2009.
