Unquestionably, his masterwork is the very long (7 hours, or so), "Satantango."
Very few works can be compared to it but I'd put Fassbinder's, "Berlin Alexanderplatz," in that select company.
Before you venture into, "Satantango," though, I'd see Susan Sontag's favorite film of his, "Damnation."
For all of them, be prepared for a different world, a different take on film art. He will reward your "work."
I'd wholeheartedly agree with a critic who said that Tarr's films have a way of drawing in the viewer so that he feels like he's in the landscape, alongside the character.
