I must be more blasé than you, as it didnt make me squirm as much.
Perhaps its my disconnection with things; perhaps you saying that prepared me for somthing that didnt happen.
Blood and guts dont bother me. A sink full of disgusting half eaten food does.
A quick resynopsis for you:
Wozzek returns from war to become a barber. He has mental problems. Story continues, he kills his wife.
He is in the woods with his lover, next to a lake.
Thus begins the youtube clip (this is the very end of the opera.)

(the lake eats him.)
Ok skip to 2:33 of the next clip

Marie's son (his lover he just killed) is playing with children the next morning. They hear there is a dead body near the lake to go see. He rides off on his hobby horse to go see the body, not knowing its his mother.
I hope it disturbed you.
Imagine this with some NIN/Skinny Puppy and you have the very ember that is sparking my idea.
But it will be somthing bigger, I hope i can have a summary for you in a week.
Thanks again!
