I think I'll get my film advise elsewhere.
I'm 33 and my favourite movie is New York Ripper

I mentioned the movie due to its sick nature and peoples attitude to I Spit On Your Grave

I know the movie I mentioned is not quite a AAA title, but it is done in the same vain

What about the Far-Eastern approach to rape in film?

If americans had made the likes of the Rapeman series or Obscene Beast Teacher, we'd all lose our minds.

But coming out of countries where ("used") schoolgirl panties are available to buy in shops?

i dont get those guys at all ..

where else can you get a genre of anime specific to 'tenticle rape' ???


(some) Japanese have a very fucked up approach to sexual equality... it's all about power - but then again - so is rape ..

I have seen I Spit..., and I didn't like it. Not because it involved rape or was to graphic, I just didn't think it was a very good movie. That's my opinion, you are allowed yours. However banning it is not right. For one that makes it 100 times more popular. Who doesn't want to see a movie they're not suppose to. Banning starts you on slippery slop that eventualy gets totally out of control. For example, in England between the early and mid '80s, they where banning horror movies left and right. Video stores got huge fine, distributers had entire stocks of movies(including master copies sometimes) seized and destroyed, and people actualy went to jail just for having certain movies in there stores. Is that what you want here? Because for every horror movie there is someone who finds it offensive.

yes, i know so much is so ordinary, so coarse, and so vulgar. but survival is simply not enough. nowhere near.
what's the point of surviving? survive what? don't you realize you're going to die? f*ck your missions, your crusade.
i demand and expect quality.

I had to "rape" a character in a film last year... and it was a very difficult scene for both the actress and myself. I have no doubt it will be difficult to watch; that was the point, if I'm not mistaken.

Regardless, I'm not in favor of banning films and arresting directors. I own a copy of I SPIT... and it is a brutal film (and certainly not a lot of fun.) But it is an interesting picture... for what it is. And I won't be showing it to any 13 year olds.
