Salo: not all that
I finally got around to watching this today and must confess that I didn't find it as disturbing as I thought I would: am I "conditioned"?
All of the rape and buggery is off-camera, the shit-eating just that and the torture scenes viewed through binoculars. I really didn't rate this film at all: am I missing something? Or am I just so hardened?

It's based on a De Sade novel. Martyr for free speech? Yes. Literary genius? Hardly. An updating of a De Sade novel keeping with the original intent of a De Sade novel is not going to create a masterpiece. The biggest gorehound I know rented this hoping for a taboo thrill, and couldn't even get to the end of it. Taboos are pointless if they're not done in a stimulating fashion.

Ive never seen this. But Ive really wanted to see a film that I actually cant stomach. Ive seen what I think ar some of the goriest like
Guinea Pig Series Cannibal Holocaust Jungle Holocaust Traces Of Death Faces Of Death those sorta films. none gross me out. So im hoping to pick this film up sometime and see what its all about. Is it a decent film though? Or is it just a gore show?

the only entertaining thing I've seen even related to De Sade was the movie Quills.

I've heard of it and read many many reviews.
First I thought it really is a very disturbing piece of film but now I'm really not sure. I guess people react differently to it. As for me, I might watch it but I'm not easily touched when scenes are not 'convincing'. But then again I might not, art?? Naah..

I don't think there IS a film I can't stomache, at least not because of gore. I haven't really been shocked by a movie but I haven't really looked for one to shock me. Faces of Death was boring and so many were fake, anyway watching people really die wasn't fun. I could stand it just fine it was just boring. Guinea Pig was cool but the movie didn't have much substance either. I love gore don't get me wrong but I want the gore to be in either A: a good movie, B: a funny movie, or C: a B movie. I saw Quills a while back, kind of liked it. I think the last movie I couldn't stomache was Exit to Eden or maybe something from Michael Moore.
