Kafkaesque

From the novella that we’ve read (Metamorphosis), and the Movie that we watched I would say that to describe something as Kafkaesque is to say it is strange and unusual. I would also guess that it was/is fantastical. In the way that Kafka make you believe that the man has very well turned into a bug, the term must refer to something that one would normally think impossible.
The movie “Kafka” I now see as very Kafkaesque because of the strangeness of the entire predicament. The fact that they were trying to create a better human, one that was more efficient is not a bad idea but the way that they were trying to achieve this was a bit fantastical.
After looking up the definition of Kafkaesque I found that it also includes a constant sense of danger. (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Kafkaesque) “Kafka” definitely displayed this characteristic through the crazy, sickly man that did the attacking throughout the movie. This was also through the constant state of alert that Kafka was in. Also from this definition that I found, I understand that Kafka also applies dehumanization to his works. Dehumanization is seen in the movie through the slave like nature of the sick man.
