It's refreshing to hear a well thought out debate after watching that episode.:)
What bothered me most was the blatant hypocrisy; their argument that films like Friday The 13th and I Spit On Your Grave were somehow more morally bankrupt than Halloween and Last House On The Left (the latter two were given favorable reviews). If they wanted to complain about inferior filmmaking or gripe about the same, tired slasher formula being used too often, that would have been reasonable; but their suggestion that these films can have a corrupting effect on the people that watch them is utter rubbish and something I would not have expected from film critics (particularly Roger Ebert).
