Review of Video Nasties: Moral Panic, Censorship & Videotape (2010) by Nyk P — 27 Nov 2010
The 72 movies that ended up on the DPP's Video Nasties List (the 39 that remained & the 33 that escaped) are a great list for any self respecting horror/exploitation fan to seek out. I've seen about 2/3rd of them & I haven't become a deranged serial killer so I don't know what the DPP was up in arms about.
They even thought they were harmful to dogs! A true witch hunt in the golden age of video where there wasn't much regulation. This is a really good documentary but the true way to see this in The Definitive Guild w/ trailers of all the films & talking heads from Absurd to Zombi.
In this form it's a cult collectors dream.
