In Reply to: Re: Why do people watch Tarantino? posted by RGA on January 30, 2006 at 22:13:37:
Not a Tarantino film, but a scene in 'Casino' left me replused, the
one where two men were beaten to death or near death with baseball bats and thrown into an open grave. I know there are probably those
who have greater tolerance for that scene and then some who actually
relished it, perhaps due to sadistic tendencies. Some of the Mafia
tortute-violence stuff can be a bit heavy at times to me. ~AH

That 45 minutes long brutal rape scene's got to be... irresistable to those who feel rapes happen in real life.
True but perhaps we would not let so many criminals off with a light sentence if people knew what a Rape was actually like.The fact that some sicko watchng a movie would get off on that is a non-issue since sicko's don't need much. This is art immitating life not art inspiring life. (though I have not seen Irreversible).
The dangerous thing is that people keep blaming violence on rock bands like marilyn manson or some movie they watched. Marilyn Manson was blamed over and over for the Columbine shootings -- and it turns out the boys never owned any of his music! It's convenient but it's unfair. And while Manson's music is nto at all to my taste -- he seems like a well spoken and quite intelligent individual who promotes THINKING not murdering. Too many illiterate boobs in the Republican party that need to take some English literature courses and understand poetic forms that what is said is not always literal. But that's asking a lot when one considers the Monkey they elected president
