It is incredible. And we're still suffering the legacy. David Alton did manage to make one fundamental change - and that was an amendment within the Criminal Justice Bill 1994 that required the BBFC to take into account 'psychological harm'. Boy, these films must be far more dangerous than we first imagined, eh?

If I'm remembering it rightly, there's that astonishing moment in the Video Nasties: Moral Panic, Censorship & Videotape documentary where one MP warns that the films in question were harmful to dogs (?)

I think what makes the documentary so important for future study is that it's a testament to how crazy, how paranoid, how fearful the times were. Even a decade later no one could ever have foreseen a day when Last House on the Left would ever be legally shown in the UK...

He also said he believed that some of them actually killed people in their films...absolute nutcase

You're not mistaken, it was the ironically named Graham Bright, Wes.

That guy is such a jackass. His snug sense of pride is really sickening

But the amazing thing about that documentary is that he still believes he's right.
