• A taxi driver, music composer, regularly commits atrocious murders.

  • His life changes when he meets a deaf dancer.

  • “Out of the world”, an immersive experience, allows Kevin Mischel to give the full measure of his acting talent.

Remember the name of Kevin Mischel, already seen in

Divines

and 

Braqueurs, the series

.

The way in which this comedian becomes a serial killer taxi driver in

Hors du monde

by French director Marc Fouchard allows him to climb an additional level in his career.

"

 He is literally possessed by the character he embodies", notes the director who had already directed him for

Break

, in the press kit.

The main character of the film, a brutal man who takes refuge in his musical compositions, lets himself be bewitched when he meets a deaf dancer (Aurélia Poirier, magnetic).

The relationship between a shy boy, capable of appalling acts of violence, and a young woman who cannot hear the music that is written are not well under way.

Horror cinema fans are familiar with very glaucous portraits of killers, of which

Henry, Portrait of a Serial Killer

(1986) by John McNaughton, is an emblematic example.

Hors du monde

does not reach the virtuosity of this brilliant work and does not pretend to do so. But the choice to deliver a film whose dialogues are reduced to the strict minimum and where the music signed Cyesm plunges the viewer into the head of the killer is very judicious. Marc Fouchard has made the most of reduced means to highlight Kevin Mischel's performance in the skin of an assassin whose humanity he underlines despite the atrocious acts he commits.

This immersive experience naturally takes its place in French horror films that combine genre cinema and auteur films.

Out of the world

is a curiosity, sometimes a little clumsy but always fascinating.
