    I was talking about gratuitously violent films. When there's a valid reason for showing gore then I have no problem with it, but showing someone in agony for entertainment purposes just seems wrong.

      Ah, sorry I got the wrong end of the stick I thought you meant any gore
      I agree.
      I feel it's all down to intent. I think two films could show, for example a torture scene, they could show the same thing happening in the same detail, but if one is for a reason then okay, ( within reason, a Serbian film took it too far) but one is just saying hey, look at this person getting tortured then I agree with you. Films like grotesque or the August underground films are just plain wrong.

        Maybe I only feel this way because I've had to sit through them.
        I had a friend who was into that kind of stuff and always brought them round.I tried to show him eternal sunshine of a spotless mind to show him that not all films have to be Gore-soaked, he fake slept the whole way through it...........we don't speak now
