Begotten adalah sebuah film horor eksperimental Amerika tahun 1989 yang ditulis, diproduksi, diedit, dan disutradarai oleh Edmund Elias Merhige. Film ini dibintangi oleh Brian Salsburg, Donna Dempsy, Stephen Charles Barry, dan anggota perusahaan teater Theatreofmaterial milik Merhige. Film ini tidak berisi dialog dan menggunakan gaya yang mirip dengan film bisu awal. Plot misterius dalam film ini diambil dari unsur-unsur berbagai mitos penciptaan. Film dimulai dengan adegan bunuh diri sosok Tuhan yang melahirkan Ibu Pertiwi dan Putra Bumi, kemudian memulai perjalanan kematian dan kelahiran kembali melalui lanskap tandus. Menurut sejarawan seni Scott MacDonald, kualitas alegoris film dan ambiguitas yang disengaja telah mengundang banyak interpretasi tentang film ini.

Begotten pertama kali disusun sebagai karya teater eksperimental dengan tarian dan iringan musik langsung, tetapi Merhige beralih ke film setelah memutuskan bahwa visinya akan terlalu mahal untuk dicapai sebagai produksi untuk penonton langsung. Antonin Artaud dan filsuf Friedrich Nietzsche adalah pengaruh besar pada Begotten, karena Merhige percaya bahwa ide dan teori mereka belum dieksplorasi sepenuhnya dalam film. Gaya visual film ini terinspirasi oleh film dokumenter pendek Blood of the Beasts karya Georges Franju, Seven Samurai karya Akira Kurosawa, The Act of Seeing with One's Own Eyes karya Stan Brakhage, dan film Ekspresionis Jerman The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Syuting Film Begotten dilakukan di New York dan New Jersey yang diperkirakan memakan waktu hingga tiga setengah tahun. Namun, dalam sebuah wawancara, Merhige mengatakan bahwa syuting film ini hanya memakan waktu lima setengah bulan.

Setelah film itu selesai, Merhige menghabiskan dua tahun berikutnya untuk mencari distributor yang mau memasarkannya. Setelah debutnya di Festival Film Dunia Montreal, film tersebut diputar di Festival Film Internasional San Francisco, di mana film tersebut ditonton oleh kritikus film Tom Luddy dan Peter Scarlet. Mereka membawanya ke perhatian sesama kritikus film, Susan Sontag, yang kemudian memberi pujian antusias dan pemutaran pribadi film di rumahnya sendiri berperan penting dalam perilisan akhir film ini. Meskipun sebagian besar diabaikan oleh kritikus film arus utama, film ini mencapai status film kultus dan memengaruhi beberapa pembuat film, seniman visual, dan musisi avant-garde. Kelangkaan film di video rumahan mendorong para penggemarnya untuk menyebarkan salinan bajakan mereka sendiri, sebuah fenomena yang digambarkan sebagai "pemujaan salinan" oleh sarjana studi film Ernest Mathijs. Sebagai bagian pertama dari seri yang direncanakan, Begotten diikuti oleh perilisan Din of Celestial Birds pada tahun 2006, sebuah sekuel pendek dengan teori evolusi sebagai tema dominannya.
