So basically you're telling me I'm gonna have to be buying imports of cannibal movies all my life. They don't make it easy, do they? (although that is kinda the point)
What I'd personally do, although I'd pass absolutely any legislation just to relax movie censorship (could be worse I guess, we could be in Singapore or somewhere like that), is demand cuts only to scenes that involve domesticated animals, like dogs and cats etc. That said, whilst I obviously don't encourage animal cruelty, it does seem like a double standard that things like this are cut in films while animals are hunted for sport (and also goaded into terror/fury in events like racing). Eh, what can you do?
To be clear, I meant I blame Mary Whitehouse for the video nasty craze - though I was ignorant of her role or lack thereof in cutting animal cruelty scenes.
