This was posted on the Criterion twitter account. If I'm really off the mark, that's Antichrist. Which makes sense with the whole IFC deal.

I initially didn't think it was Antichrist, but then I remembered the scene where he was into the fox hole, which had pretty claustrophobic camerawork if I'm not mistaken.

That's gotta be Anti-Christ. We shall know in a week and a half.

I had a feeling Anti-Christ might be coming our way based on its availability on Netflix Instant Watch; lots of Criterion's releases of recent films this year (Revanche, Che, Gomorrah, Hunger) have shown up on there prior to their given release dates.

By that logic Brief Interviews with Hideous Men will be coming out from them as well... Which I hope isn't the case.

It was on NetFlix a little before it was actually available on DVD and Blu-ray. I watched it end of February or so.

Put both pictures side by side and I'm not entirely convinced.

Pretty sure the first one is a publicity still, as I don't think there's an actual shot in the movie where she walks past him while he's in the fox hole. Remember, at this point in the movie he's actively hiding from her and she's off in the distance, not silently walking past him.

It is from Antichrist. Here is a screenshot from Netflix (at 1:04:20 in the film). Since the Twitter photo was clearly taken with a camera phone and a very shaky hand, I've adjusted the Netflix screenshot to resemble it a little more closely (yes, I'm bored).

Actually, that's not a publicity shot. It is from the movie, just not the scene you're thinking of (and not the one in the Twitter photo either). That shot occurs at about 0:30:42 in the film (here's another Netflix screenshot).

Guadalcanal has a tropical terrain and the screenshot looks more like a pine forest. Check it out at 1:19 in the trailer of Antichrist.

Wow, okay, well thank you for the detective work, and for clearing that up.

Looks like a scene from Hausu, no?

People are commenting that it is from a film named, House.

Definitely Hausu/House - check out the last but one screengrab on this review. Not an exact match, but enough to confirm I'm sure.

If a Blu-Ray edition of House and a Blu-Ray edition of Antichrist are announced next week I will flip out. Amazing.

Saw House a couple weeks ago-- that screen is def from the film.

I think Criterion will release it in October.

I hope the presence of the M.Hulot's Holiday poster in the store means a blu-ray release will happen this summer. [-o<

Nice to see that Criterion is actually releasing Antichrist. Heard some opposing rumors last year. It was the opening film of an art house cinema in Tallinn last year and most unforgetable cinematic experience I've ever had. Now let's hope they've learned from "A Christmas Tale" and "Summer Hours", and won't forget to announce the Blu-ray...

I think Blu-ray sales have been good for them, hence the increase in releases in both formats.

The Criterion Newsletter alludes to the ANTICHRIST release.

I bet that October will be an all horror month and will have Cronos, House, and Anitchrist.
