That said am i the only one that doesn't find this film aywhere near as shocking as its rep suggests?
When I watch these films I try put myself in the era they were released and see it through the eyes of someone watching it then. By today's standards it make appear tame but when this was released first I'm sure it was horrifying to people.Very little shocks now because we are used to seeing death on the news and internet.
