I'm surprised to hear that it's banned in Australia - the necrophilious aspect isn't really explicit (certainly not in a Buttgereit full on corpse shagging kind of way). From a UK perspective, I think it'd pass at 18 these days. |
"The OFLC gave BEYOND THE DARKNESS an RC in 1992 after customs forwarded them a seized copy. High-level violence and the necrophilia story line would have to be the reason for this decision.
Joe D'Amato's EMANUELLE IN AMERICA and EMANUELLE AND THE LAST CANNIBALS were both heavily cut by the Australian censors, and his CALIGULA: THE UNTOLD STORY was issued in a soft version on video. There is also a report of ANTHROPOPHAGOUS: THE BEAST being taken by customs."
Took this from refused-classification.com.
On a similar note, Astron-6's Fathers Day got banned recently in Australia.
