Ultimate notorious film collection
 
Before I get innundated with links to previous threads where this has been asked already, I'll be up front: I don't have time to search. I know you lot like a debate or an evolving list, so here's one:

I have a fairly reasonable collection of films, collected mainly by accident over the years:

I Spit on Your Grave
Last House on the Left
Cannibal Ferox
Cannibal Holocaust
Anthropophagus
Wu Shu (Run & Kill)
Men Behind the Sun (waiting for delivery)
Driller Killer
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Story of Ricky
Salo
Irreversible
Baise Moi

There's a few which I know I want and which I'm looking for on Ebay:

The Burning Moon
Paura nella città dei morti viventi (City of the Living Dead; Lucio Fulci)
Za ginipiggu / Guineapig series

As you can probably see, I'm trying to collect "controversial" / "notorious" films. Italian horror and Hong Kong Category III seem to be the ones to seek but I'm open to suggestion.

The purpose of this thread then is to harvest the titles that I might want to look for.

Recommendations duly invited and gratefully received...

Thriller: A Cruel Picture (aka They Call Her One Eye) was pretty controversial for the violence and hardcore porn scenes. Not a bad movie but not the greatest by any means. I own this one.

I think Caligula was another one I don't see mentioned that garnered a lot of guff. I didn't like the film personally but others think it's a classic.

Based on what you have I would suggest you get Thriller but make sure to get the uncut version because the other is hacked up horribly. Only controversial Swedish movie I think I've seen. http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=RYK030349


By the way, I've heard Mother's Day is pretty bad but haven't seen it. Been meaning to check it out. Freaks was pretty good too but it's old and some people just don't like older controversial films because they don't pack the same punch now as they did.

You need to get yourself a copy of Maniac and The Beyond.

no, ignore any reccomendations of The Beyond, that movie was terrible. There are plenty of good Italian horror movies with scenes similar to the ones in The Beyond, but done a lot better (like the eye gouge scene) that you don't need to see that piece of shit movie

Whatever the Beyond is a fuckin' amazing film.

Stuart Gordon's From Beyond and Fulci's Zombi 2 were both better than The Beyond (Fulci did Zombi 2 a few years before The Beyond and it was still a better flick). I didn't hate The Beyond, it just wasn't as good as a few others I've seen.

"Night Of The Demon"? What is that one about? That's not the lame ass movie, albeit with a tad of violence, about some Yeti, who in the end, just wanted his kid back?

As in Zombie/Zombe Flesh Eaters?

I thought the Beyond was way better than Zombie. Zombie was cool but kinda dull in places.
