Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom update feed
"There has probably never been a more agonizing portrayal of the terror of helplessness than Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom, in which a small cadre of fascist politicians holds 18 teenagers against their will, repeatedly imposing rapacious tortures on them. That Pier Paolo Pasolini and his collaborators made the film so opulent only makes the den of horrors more infernal; it’s brutal and disgusting but also transfixing and seductive. Salò‘s unbounded horrors of abuse include the prisoners b"
“Éste film lo ponen siempre en las listas de películas perturbadoras que dejan traumados de por vida a quienes las ven. Por eso, francamente, odio las listas de películas perturbadoras, porque son decepcionantes y solo dicen basura amarillista, cuando las películas que muestran son solo shock barato para apantallar a gente fácil de impresionar. Y esta película no es la excepción.
No he leído el libro, por lo que no la juzgaré como una adaptación.
Cuando se trata de crear shock, creo que es importante hacer una pregunta: ¿Para qué? Hay quienes solo buscan ser espectaculares, y hay quienes quieren o aparentan dar un mensaje, como "A Clockwork Orange". Pues "Salo" optó por lo segundo. Pier Paolo Pasolini al ser marxista y habiendo vivido la Italia de Mussolini,” read more
" What is it about? In World War II Italy, four fascist libertines round up nine adolescent boys and girls and subject them to one hundred and twenty days of physical, mental and sexual torture."
“In spite of or because of its controversial reputation, I was quite eager to check this movie. On top of that, it had been years since I saw a movie directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. Well, eventually, it definitely deserves its reputation as it was easily one of the most f*cked-up movies I have ever seen and I have seen quite a lot of weird and messed-up flicks. In fact, the sex scenes were not so unbearable but it was the first time I saw a movie dealing with scatology and these scenes were just awful to behold. Later on, it didn't get much better with some horrible torture scenes. Seriously, compared to this movie, such movies like 'Saw' or 'Hostel' were pretty much like a walk in a park. Eventually, what was Pasolini's point? In my opinion, he wanted to show that Fascism was and still is” read more
"30th of November, DVD Pier Paolo Pasolini on tunnettu elokuvistaan, jotka käsittelevät myönteisesti seksuaalisuutta. Ohjaajan joutsenlaulu Sodoman 120 päivää taas kääntää hänen tyylitajunsa päälaelleen ja käy läpi seksuaalisuuden alistavimmat, nöyryyttävimmät ja sadistisimmat osa-alueet. Elokuvana Salò on äärimmäinen satiiri korruptiosta ja alistavasta vallankäytöstä, joka tosin koko kahden tunnin kestonsa ajan vain alleviivaa tätä kyseistä kannanottoa vähän liiank"

"Not to be confused with the Ukrainian/Russian delicacy salo, which is salted pork fat, this film's reputation is well deserved. The only reason that it didn't shock me is that I knew what kind of sick shit to expect. At least it's better than Taxidermia. "
“I thought this movie was deeply disturbing but I found it rather dull, boring and with no disturbing atmosphere at all, movies like Cannibal Holocaust”

“I thought this movie was deeply disturbing but I found it rather dull, boring and with no disturbing atmosphere at all, movies like Cannibal Holocaust had disturbing moments due to the shaky camera effect and the great soundtrack, but this movie with it's lame piano music as the only music in the entire movie had no disturbing atmosphere at all, it seemed there was one act after the other, nothing really unexpected happened-pretty disappointing movie IMO! I've seen worse at a younger age when I rented some extreme sado-maso/fetish movies. as I said before a disturbing movie is in my opinion only created by some intelligent camerawork and a great soundtrack which was here not the case. I found even the Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) more disturbing than this pervert fascist pig flick.” read more
