I've just finished watching Video Nasties: Moral Panic, Censorship & Videotape. A really fascinating documentary that is well researched, with excellent interviews, and essential to all film fans. A superb account of a time when a group of idiots tried to, in the words of Roger Waters, "keep our feelings off the street". It is amazing to see Conservative MP Graham Bright not realise that he sounds completely insane over the whole furore surrounding the films.
The film will definitely come in handy as a useful weapon should this BS happen again.
