I’ve been following the by Australia while it horrifies others..
Friend Cinema Pscyho wrote up an article opposing the ban on the film, but not completely endorsing the scenes of simulated child rape..
I respect his opinion while I do not agree: I for one will not be lining up anywhere to see SERBIAN FILM—and even though I typically am against banning movies, the notion of this film makes me question my long-held views on freedom of expression..
Perhaps I have grown weak in my long years of life.. I have an eight-month-old son now, too.. a wife.. and a family. And my old days of horror movie watching and time wasting are gone.
Nonetheless.. .pushing the envelope is fine with me—and sometimes worth the effort to make a point. But pointless gore in a quest to freak out and disgust an audience — or even make a freaky audience happy with disgusting scenes—isn’t a positive way to pop my culture. I’ll be fine without seeing SERBIAN FILM..
