22/06/2012: Cannibal Holocaust [1980]

So I just finished watching Cannibal Holocaust, and that is one hell of cinematic experience. Cannibal Holocaust is probably one of the most controversial movies ever. Banned at one time or another in some 50 countries, Cannibal Holocaust feature footage so real and disturbing the filmmaker was arrested for murder when it was released. Yet, Cannibal Holocaust is not just mindless violence, it is an important piece of film, and is still significant today as a social commentary on modern society.

30/03/2012: Natural Born Killers [1994]

The Entertainment Weekly's list of the Top 25 most controversial list is an interesting one. One of it's most surprising factors is the number of big name directors and well known movie on the list. From Martin Scorsese, to Stanley Kubric, from Oliver Stone to Mel Gibson the list is filled with well known films. Sitting at number 8 is Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers, the only director to hold two spots on the list.
