It's mainly just gross (feces-eating) and a little violent (rape, and some razor blade eating), but not that gory, actually. I would say it's actually much tamer than stuff that's common today, but I think it just has that rap of being so boundary-breaking and controversial. But Pasolini meant to make a movie that unflinchingly reflected life in the fascist Republic of Salo (that he lived in as a young man), so it's supposed to be offensive. But I didn't find it hard to stomach at all. <br /><br />Here's the fourfour commentary/liveblogging-ish for the Criterion re-release - not too terribly spoilery, plotwise (although the plot is pretty simple, honestly), but might give you an idea of whether you want to watch or not: http://fourfour.typepad.com/fourfour/2008/09/gabe-and-rich-w.html<br /><br />If you do watch it, let me know what you think.kathyeffingjacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13513149945814702143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-68113612587183868232010-07-02T19:14:07.022-05:002010-07-02T19:14:07.022-05:00I'll second the recommendation for Tokyo Zombi...I'll second the recommendation for Tokyo Zombie - it's pretty funny.<br /><br />I've been wracking my brain all week for the most fucked up movies I've seen (since that's also my husband's favorite kind of movie, and I've been known to watch them with him, when I can stand them). Actually one of my favorite movies that many consider fucked up is Pier Paolo Pasolini's Salo. If you haven't seen it, you might want to check it out. And then my other two recs are Miike films that you've probably already seen: The Audition (which I managed to watch) and Ichi the Killer (which my husband watched, but I couldn't stomach). I don't see fourfour.typepad.com in your blogroll, so I'll recommend that, too, as Rich likes similar films and reviews them from time to time. (Like Human Centipede.)<br /><br />Also, not super fucked up, but a great zombie movie some friends of ours made: Sick and the Dead.kathyeffingjacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13513149945814702143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-11974303780645757742010-07-01T08:52:40.625-05:002010-07-01T08:52:40.625-05:00I just hated the two main characters really.

I can see how some people wouldn't like Lost in Translation since it doesn't really have a solid plotline.<br /><br />@MissTat: Since I made it through Girl Next Door, that's one I want to see sometime. I like Ellen Page a lot. I'm glad you like the post! :D<br /><br />@T, the Bee: that's cool! I'm moving to Texas in August, I think Austin is only like a two hour or hour and a half drive, so I bet I'll be there a few times. You'll have to tell me cool things to do! It's so lame but I haven't seen a Clockwork Orange! I started it a few years ago but never finished. I'll have to look up Hard Core Logo.<br /><br />@casey aimee: I think my brother has seen Feed and told me it was gross... yay! I wanna see it :><br /><br />@Kim: I have never seen Hostel... I tried watching it once when I was 15 and stopped it pretty quick. But by now I have gotten so desensitized I don't know if it would be bad at all. I love Suicide Club! And the sequel, Noriko's Dinner Table! I think there is supposed to be a third one at some point... idk it's been a while since I've looked up stuff about it. I've never heard of Tokyo Zombie, it looks cool though!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04115089023525905294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-61841981342426428272010-06-28T18:38:00.469-05:002010-06-28T18:38:00.469-05:00I feel sad, I haven't seen any of these.

Only one I saw randomly in the horror section a loooong time ago that I recall being kind of fucked up was this pos film called Bleeders..<br /><br />Hm, as for any japanese films, if you haven't seen Suicide Club or Tokyo Zombie, I recommend those. ^^Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14313860931358634659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-25376894964755287832010-06-28T17:43:21.023-05:002010-06-28T17:43:21.023-05:00I read your blurb about searching for the most fuc...I read your blurb about searching for the most fucked up movies and was going to recommend Martyrs, but then saw that you've already seen it. :p<br />Feed is another disgusting/strange one, if you haven't seen it already.casey aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11987930277490469835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-611175366092283222010-06-28T17:20:47.266-05:002010-06-28T17:20:47.266-05:00I live in Austin! ^_^ I think it's a pretty da...I live in Austin! ^_^ I think it's a pretty damned good film festival as well... the indie scene here is great for a number of things! My favorite movie ever is A Clockwork Orange... so your movie reviews are right up my alley! I look forward to seeing more! I love the woman from splice... even with all that makeup she's so elegant. I definitely want to watch these now so I can give educated feedback. ^_^ Actually, I recently watched Hard Core Logo... based on your movie likes you may like this one, too. (Sort of mockumentary style, but pretty awesome Canadian film) I LOVE this movie!!!!!T, the Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14505361142909978984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-31290721327785014592010-06-28T15:12:02.360-05:002010-06-28T15:12:02.360-05:00Have you watched An American Crime?

Fantastic Fest will be the coolest weekend of all time, you should come! <3<br /><br />@KittenMittens: Cube was the shit! I love Battle Royale, that's been one of my favorite movies since I was 13 or 14 :)<br /><br />@KinkyKambria: I felt so dirty and disgusting watching it... it really is life changing in a way. Those are images you can never bleach from your brain.<br /><br />@HeavenNRJ: When I was reading about the real life court case quite a while ago, I just had to stop. It is so horrible, it really makes you lose faith in humanity. I have seen the Japanese Ring, but it's one of the only movies (actually, I think it's THE only movie) that I like the remake better. And I've seen all the Japanese Grudge flicks, even the crappy made for tv ones :D They had two different ones come out last summer but idk when they will be available in America. The Grudge movies terrify me, I love them.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04115089023525905294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-7090618232995213692010-06-28T01:58:22.735-05:002010-06-28T01:58:22.735-05:00Love Cube too!

Oh my, ...Love Cube too! Gotta see that Splice! :) <br /><br />Oh my, you seriously intrigued me with The Girl Next Door. I probably won't watch it, just will read about it. :)<br /><br />Deadgirl had a couple of crazy moments, but wasn't scary at all. :) And I managed to watch it alone! Btw, Shiloh Fernandez (and Noah Segan to some extent) saved the movie. lol<br /><br />Have you seen Japanese "versions" (in reality - original scripts) of The Ring, The Grudge? I tried to watch, but couldn't make it... firstly because I was alone when I wanted to watch these, and secondly because these movies are much more disturbing than Hollywood versions. :) It was long time ago though, maybe it's not that scary, huh? :)HeavenNRJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13494662450383915740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-36566309627389631862010-06-28T00:52:25.723-05:002010-06-28T00:52:25.723-05:00Yeah.
