Any opinions Steve.? If your still enjoying , please join in.

Last bit on Holocaust/Ferox, from me, honest. Some experts claim certain animals can't feel terror or peril , so why dont the BBFC take both sides into consideration .

Man Bites Dog and Salo, both passed uncut while Driller Killer cut.
Why do the BBFC usually pass violent 'arthouse ' films uncut.
MBD,containing graphic chid murder while the killer complains that kids are a nuisance to kill and requests help from film crew to hold the kid down had no problem with Ferman, same with Salo, but Driller Killer, also arthouse style film , but advertised to the working class man/woman banned then refused a cert, then passed with cuts, then finally all cuts waived , years after MBD.
MBD was far more violent than Driller yet as Driller was a 'nasty' it took 3 submittions before all cuts were waived.
Is a films likely class of viewer taken in to consideration when its viewed for classification by the BBFC .?

Again I ask outta curiosity as both Angel and Vince ( its ok to call you Vince ?) have well informed knowledge as well as highly respected opinions on censorship and the BBFC and I am asking in genuine interest and not just having a rant at the BBFC .
To get the views of you both is very interesting and educational for me so thanks for your input.

Its been ages since I saw any version of Bloody Moon Vince, was the snakes head snipped off.? I cant remember.

Hey Reaper, your a MOD now, nice one mate.
