It seems Tookey is still scarred by Crash.

The readers comments are hilarious.

If anything is going to cause people to go out and commit violence it's the comments on there.

That article is about a year too late. Presumably influenced by the recent BBFC research I guess. The comments under the article make me want to bash my head against a wall though, Jesus.


Daily Mail reader's comments = make me commit violent acts

The Human Centipede II = bored my arse off


Now THAT'S research!



Edit: damn, Pete beat me to my witty comment.

It makes you want to weep.

The likes of Tom Six, Eli Roth etc will be jumping for joy at this free advertising as the profits come rolling in again.

RIK RANT MODE LEVEL=EXTREME I ****ing despise that waste of trees, the way they're going we're gonna end up with another V**** N****** scandal on our hands, ****ing cretins! Yeah, HC2 is a vile, sick piece of shit film, but that's exactly what it is a FILM, anyone who is influenced to commit any form of crime from watching something like this was already a danger to society in the first place!
I've been watching horror films or films with extremely graphic content for over 20 years now and not once have I felt the urge to go and rape/torture/maim/kill anybody, sure I've worked with a few people that I've fancied smashing in the face with a hammer, but that's down to them being obnoxious pricks, **** all to do with my choice of entertainment!
This kind of shit really ****ing winds me up, especially when people think that just because I love watching horror/extreme cinema, I'm a (delete where appropriate)weirdo/sick ****er who is going to steal their children and make a casserole out of them.
I watched Die Hard last night, didn't make me want to jump off a building using a fire hose as a bungee rope, I watched Halloween the other week, didn't make me want to stab my sister!
The small minded ****tards that write for that rag probably haven't seen a horror film since Psycho caused all that fuss in the 60's or The Exorcist in the 70's, their idea of entertainment is more than likely sat watching the utter shite that is Downton Abbey with a glass of sherry (just one glass mind, wouldn't want to get frisky, sex is a dirty thing don't forget!) and a cigar, ****ing c***s!
RANT MODE DISABLED=CIG TIME TO CALM THE **** DOWN

Blimey! Here is a bag to breathe into:





Seriously though, I agree with all that.

It does make you want to thump reporters though.

Add to that the fact my ZFE slipcase hasn't arrived yet means I'm in a serious bad mood today, God help anyone else that pisses me off, they may get an axe to the face like I saw in Friday the 13th when I was 11

When I was an apprentice, that rag got me into trouble with a couple of the older guys I worked with, because I used to have to go to the shop for them and I blatantly refused to buy it, even though they were paying, this led to me getting all the crappy jobs that nobody wanted to do for the next week, one of the horrible bastards even complained to my boss saying I refused to do as I was told


I think I need to calm down

If ppl didn't want to watch these films and wasn't a market for them then they wouldn't make them, ppl like them to the extent that most programmes after 9 pm are full of violence that's why people are loving the walking dead series type of tv show that would never had got shown on tv years ago for the gore and violence, lets be honest just the odd clip here and there on the walking dead would have even been censored here if it was in a film in the 80s etc ,

The first season of the Walking Dead was cut by the BBFC for gore
