The Most Controversial Films Of All Time: Part III

ahaha, I remember the zombie sex scene in peter jackson's brain dead/dead or alive.

There's one of them in Stink of Flesh.
That's what made it controversial.

I was quite suprised you didn't include Borat. I thought that was quite controversial due to the racism.

Again, Borat is in the minor leagues of controversy.

It came like 3rd on C4's 100 most Controversial films.

I deliberately only included films that I own

maybe you should of titled it, "The Most Controversial Films That I Own".

Channel 4 likes to be mainstream, those programmes that they produce are so closed in and rushed. Also, the films that I have listed are the most controversial films of all time by MASS opinion, the vast majority of them were banned. The reason that I own them all is because of their reputation.

Borat sparked a little racial controversy upon its release, but now? It's dead in the water. White Chicks is more racist than that. If Borat was banned and was a lot more controversial than a weeks worth of media attention, perhaps I would have included it alongside my analyses of films that have been shocking the world for, for the most part, over 30 years.

It came third, because it's a comedy, and comedies are overrated.

And why should he? :rolleyes:

it came third because it was direspectful to countrys and a lot of other reasons.

he should change it because he made the article based on films he had seen.

Read my response to you above iTech's last post.

I think Trainspotting should of been included too.

as soon as i saw the thread title i though 'a clockwork orange'

Trainspotting is controversial, but not controversial enough to make my list.

These films were controversial because they we deviant from the norms of the times. For example, The Exorcist was once banned for its use of religious practices, the inclusion of young children as a main part of the story line (and and 'evil' one I might ad) and the horror was considered psychological (which at the time, movies were considered physiological). The Exorcist is no longer banned because we have grown desensitized to its style, this is the main reason why many films today are not considered controversial. I feel that such films as The Number 23, Underworld and various marvel films could be considered controversial for their unique take on the beliefs and childhood 'idols' of the audience, although I wouldn't include then in this category primarily because these styles of films are different from the ones in the list (horror) and it would be more effective to divide them into genres because there are controversial films in every genre and not just one universal category.
