If you want a movie to remind you of how your life doesn't suck as much as some people, this is of course the movie for you. It's based off a book which supposedly is even nastier than the film, which is sort of hard to believe. This movie is about four fascist libertines in 1944 Italy who were just hanging around being bored, so they come up with the idea that they should kidnap a bunch of adolescents, and torture them physically, mentally, and sexually for about four months. Highlight scenes include some of the teens being anal raped, and forced to give handjobs, a couple of the teens having to eat bread with nails in them, and one of the female teens having to eat the Duke's shit with a spoon. Oh and there's a big feast of all the teenagers eating shit. Yummy. At the film the teenagers who disobeyed the libertines at some point during their four month torture have their eye's gouged out, they get scalped, burned, raped, and finally killed. Then in the last scene two of the guards who are watching decide to dance a waltz together.
This was the directors last film because he was later run over by his own car. Some people think the government did it because of how fucked up this movie is. Of course it was banned in most countries but in some countries you can get the movie uncut but just try having the dignity to go up to the counter and say you wanna buy the movie. Even in the most fucked up porn stores will say you're a sick man for wanting to see it. People are still on the fence on whether or not it's an artistic masterpiece, or just a plain sick, sick movie. Either way if you watch the movie and are not affected by it, you have mental issues.
In 1994 an undercover cop rented the movie from a gay bookstore, then later arrested the owners for "pandering"

it sucked it was just a bunch of people having sex and shitting on each other
not worth watching even for movie sadists
The book is worse.
Written by Marquis De Sade, discovered written on a roll of toilet paper in the bastille during the french revolution. The only book ever to ruin my night's sleep.
was it based on a ture story ?
Me and my brother started that movie at a party at our house once.
That was three years ago, and we haven't had a party since.
I like sick movies, or movies with a bit of kink, but I've never got round to seeing this one.
A friend of mine said he felt depressed for about a week after seeing it and didn't even go to work.
I read about this, but couldn't be fucked seeing it.
Is there a link to a video of it? (full movie)
already seen "Cannibal Holocaust", I might as well just go all the way and see this.
I tried looking around for some juicy bits on Youtube but I couldn't find any.

oh sweden you cheeky bastards
Cannibal Holocaust is like teletubbies compared to this
I'm thinking this movie, Cannibal Holocaust and Men Behind The Sun are probably the most disturbing movies of the exploitation genre, and overall the most messed up movies made to date.
[QUOTE=GarrysDad;20178556]was it based on a ture story ?[/QUOTE]
No, I believe it's based on a book written by the guy whom "sadism" was named after.

Cannibal Holocaust is Teletubbies compared to anything.
Cannibal Holocaust is Teletubbies compared to Teletubbies.
I'd like to watch this movie. Sounds like an interesting one, like A Clockwork Orange..
Never seen the film but I know the metal band Belphegor made an amazing album inspired by the writings of Marquis de Sade (the author of the book the film is based on)
Read the book for a "Choose a novel to review" assignment for english class, needles to say I failed that assignment. Teachers never looked at me the same ever again
Haven't watched this though, sounds like a blast...
I haven't watched it yet either... I'm probably gonna have to watch it alone; if I asked my gf to watch it with me, she'd probably beat me senseless, call the police and ask for a restraining order :S

its not
its awful
It sounds like "A Clockwork Orange" is like Teletubbies compared to this :v:
How many times worse is it compared to American Psycho? That was a really fucked up movie, though this seems about... 7.534690^5 times worse.
Actually this wasn't that bad. The whole movie is like 15 fucked up commercial breaks for foxy TV pasted together. The part where they're all eating and the cook serves a barbecue full of human feces was fucked up tough. So was the ending were the remaining poeple get multilated... Most of the nasty scenes aren't right in your face so the movie wasn't as fucked up as I first expected. What sucks is that most of the sex scenes are gay; and the abusers are all scary, fuckly and bearded poeple and mainly think about raping the boys in the ass.

That man sure was ahead of its time... even today, almost 200 years after he died, his books are the sickest you can lay your eyes on :/
Can't be more fucked up than Begotten.
[QUOTE=Mac2468;20236006]Can't be more fucked up than Begotten.[/QUOTE]
Yes. It is.
I loved the cinema snob`s review on this. When he showed the shit eating scene I wanted to puke aswell.
[QUOTE=Mac2468;20236006]Can't be more fucked up than Begotten.[/QUOTE]
That movie had me with a :wtc: look, from beggining to end... I was like "[I]What the fuck did I just watch?? O.O[/I]"
But, for the looks of it, this movie sounds even worse than Begotten...
I just read the synopsis of the book on wikipedia, it was fucking horrible
I just watched part of it and I go back on what I said, it's just as bad if not worse than Begotten.
horrible film by a perverted director.
