Mondo movies

[Pete]

I got given a copy of the Mondo movie ADDIO ULTIMO UOMO and, having heard it described in one review as a 'circumcisionathon', I'm not sure I want to watch it.

A film with lots of cuts then?

Sounds like uncomfortable viewing. I'm not sure I would want to watch it either!

Here is what one of the reviews on the IMDB says

The next time someone asks you what the most repellent film you've ever seen is. It's this. You've probably not seen it (especially if your in the UK) but it doesn't matter, just lie to them & describe the most vile things you can see done to the human body. It's all here for your enjoyment.(castration, male & female circumcision, body piercing, sex, punishment, animal slaughter etc..) It's all real too, so all you Fulci, Deodato fans will probably lap it up. The thing is, it's really interesting, so it's perhaps wrong of me to say its all a sick excuse for entertainment.

Hardly a glowing endorsement but, from the content, I'm not sure why he says Deodato and Fulci fans would 'lap it up'. I can't see a correlation between their films and castration/female genital mutilation!

Well you know how it is, Nos - If your a fan of horror movies then that means you also get off on real life violence and mutilation.

Not only do horror fans enjoy watching it, but they are much more likely to go out and do it for real!

They are.


I have loads of body parts in my basement from people I've tortured and killed.

I thought I was the only one who did that. It's probably more common than you think.
