religious satire

His surrealist masterpieces like 'Viridiana' and 'The Exterminating Angel' use grotesque imagery and dark humor to deconstruct Catholic hypocrisy and religious authority.

His provocative films, particularly 'The Canterbury Tales' and 'Salò', blend religious imagery with transgressive content to critique institutional power and dogma.

His comedies 'Dogma' and 'Clerks II' use irreverent humor and pop culture to satirize Christian doctrine, clergy, and religious zealotry with witty dialogue and absurdist scenarios.
