Just my opinion.
And wherest movies like CH are some what artsy, ASF is just cruel spirited.

Raping a person young or old is wrong. End of discussion.

How its PRESENTED in the film matters a lot, had the newborn scene in serbian film looked in anyway convincing i would have turned the film off, burned it then spent a lot of time trashing the movie online. As it looked fake, and was presented in a way that reminded me off a friends young son showing me a crayon picture he drew of a man with his head cut off in a jevenile attempt to elicit a shocked reaction I just rolled my eyes and watched it through to the end.

This may not be the right phrase, but I'm looking forward to watching it!
its an excellent disc, with some genuinely well done extras and a great commentary track. Make sure to watch the american nightmares cut as well!

Yes, rape is wrong, but it is how it is depicted in the media that is important.
Wether it look's realistic or not, the raping of a young child is far more dissturbing in my eye's than the rape of a fully grow woman.

Which ones do you have and how do you rate them?
I'll try to make a little list once I know your tastes...

ok, so we differ there I suppose. My problem is I dont see these things in degrees. I've never viewed one rape as being any less wrong than another. I do agree that how its depicted is important, to me serbian film looked fake, and a deliberate attempt to shock me for its own sake. This doesent disturb me, it just makes me sad.

I've not seen ASF but responding to "Mordum" in pretty much the same way.

100% agree with you there, pretty much the same thing, though the end scenes of mordem actually disgusted me a lot more. It didn't look as fake as asf.

The ones that I've sat down to watch and that stick in mind are The Seventh Curse, which is a film that really kicks ass in my opinion, The Bedevilled and Vampire Versus Vampire.

I've also ordered Mr Vampire 2, Mr Vampire 3, Magic Story and The Trail.

Try to get Mr Vampire 4 as well if possible.

I'd also recommend these (for starters) from the Legendary Collection:
Devil Fetus (more serious horror)
Blue Jean Monster, The
Doctor Vampire
Peacock King, The (fantasy)

Magic Story is a movie for kids btw.

Whenever I get a disc with different cuts of the film and a commentary, I tend to watch all versions and listen to the commentary - this will be no exception.

As it is only recently arrived, it should be at the bottom of my priority list but, due to this praise and the recommendations, I may make an exception!
