It's just how much is shown. I can't think of a single scene from an Argento film that is 'evil' in anyway. But the 'New Born Porn' in A Serbian Film was just point blanck mean spirited and intended for nothing more than to lead the movie and the director into scandal. At least Argento is artsy and has a deffinitive styilistic spin on his produce.
interesting, your wrong, but very interesting.

Stendahl syndrome. Repeated (graphic) sexual assaults.

Opera. Repeted kidnapping of title character who is forced to watch people being graphically murdered.

I suppose if argento had someone scewing a child that would be ok because his films are 'artsy'

My problem is evil is such a broad term that is open to interpretation. BIRTH OF A NATION is a totally evil film and I was shown that in film school.

I would agree serbian film wasn't very good, but labelling it as evil is very simplistic.
