Hi,

Lately, it seems like every single TV show or movie is gore + sex or sexual innuendo. When you watch shows in sequence (like on Netflix or Prime)it's much easier to see the manipulation, NLP programming or (in this case) sex + gore... They are teaching an entire generation to be aroused by killing..

I've noticed on the kids video games that it is kill, kill, kill and a sexy whore or two tossed in. Seriously, not just dressed slutty but whores ..:-) If the killer is a female then she is probably a lesbian..

Good discussion, and I feel it's my duty to add another aspect
: about gore that I've come across. I've only seen a clip of
: "Crash" (1996), but ... I've posted someone's
: review from Rotten Tomatoes
: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1076271_crash below.

: (should not be posting at all - working on an essential doc at

: the moment - should finish today, or tomorrow with a final
: proof read! We'll see how many more breaks I take! :-)

: "After surviving a brutal car wreck, commercial director
: James Ballard finds himself slowly drawn to a mysterious
: subculture of people who have transformed automobile
: accidents into erotic events. Like the J.G. Ballard novel
: that inspired it, David Cronenberg's study of the sexual
: dimension of man's relationship to technology was a magnet
: for controversy, drawing a NC-17 rating and criticism from
: several sources, including studio owner Ted Turner, who
: attempted to prevent the film's American release. But
: though some have leveled charges of pornography, James'
: descent into this fetishistic underworld is approached with
: cold, scientific detachment. Characters like Vaughn, the
: charismatic group leader who stages recreations of
: celebrity car crashes, seem more like driven researchers
: than sexual renegades, which is undoubtedly part of the
: film's point. This impression is reinforced by the pristine
: cinematography by Peter Suschitzsky, which proves
: particularly haunting during a crucial accident scene, and
: Howard Shore's superb score. Far from exploitative, Crash
: in fact proves less transgressive than the original novel,
: but is still undoubtedly not for all tastes. ~ Judd Blaise,
