My problem with someone saying that Triumph is a Mondo is that it trivializes the subject matter. Mondo movies on the whole are exploitation movies and made to titillate its audience,and also there not renowned for there historical accuracy especially when we know that alot of footage is fake or staged or manipulated.I can't even call Triumph a documentary,where's the political balance,where's an opposing view,there is'nt. As far as Im concerned its propaganda.Rant Over.
By the way i won't be buying the blu ray.
