Film noir usually had good people in them, struggling with adversity, but remaining good, not scum upon scum like in most of hsi works.
I struggled with the Dogs, and it left me physically sick for days, and even today I do not want to think about it. And it is not like I am sensitive.

  but I do know what he means about disturbing. This film was a gut wrenching exploration of violence...and the darkness that lurks in humans.
  As for Film Noir, I think RD sort of kicked the shit out of the genre, made it rude and spawned several subsequent followers....Some were actually pretty good, like 3 Days in the Valley, but others sucked, like Natural Born Killers.
