It was banned in Australia for 18 years before being re-submitted for a classification with the Office of Film and Literature (OFLC) in December 1992. It is trying too hard to be shocking. There is a scene where a young man and woman have a mock wedding, and all the other sex slaves are naked with genitalia showing and one of the fascists stops the ceremony to come and grope and kiss the naked bodies of both the men and women. The Criterion Collection edition is flawlessly restored, and a new soundtrack taking the glitches out of it. They had some nice looking nudes; BUT, the story line was so forced and awkward! The writer director deserves some credit for creating this jodorowsky esque sexual dystopia. Boy I should have done some research on this ugly trash.

Salo was probably one of the most distubing films ever made, it was set at the end of the second world war in Italy with the German resistant taking in a handful of slaves. I have spent more than half of my life sick with repressiveness in Theater, Cinema and Culture. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote.
Even the opening captures lack much gravity. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. It seems if one has a good grasp of the socio-economic and political situation of Italy in the 1970's, one has a better handle on what Pasolini was intending. Although this film is not suitable for anyone who is not a fan of hardcore nasty films, it is however a film that should be seen at least once. Film itself is deffinetly for the open minded !! However the coprophilia is very prevalent and repulsive. I consigned it to its proper place ,in the bin. Shocking and pretty disgusting at times, nothing comes close to this, except maybe a Lars Von Trier movie perhaps Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote.
The distributor at the time, Premium Films, appealed the decision to the Classification Review Board in early 1993. So I don't feel so bad about not coming to a conclusion about the movie. A disturbing motion picture for mature audiences who are prepared to view it.. Four corrupted fascist libertines round up 9 teenage boys and girls and subject them to 120 days of sadistic physical, mental and sexual torture. The film was rejected for cinema by the BBFC in 1976 and a private showing of the uncut version at the Old Compton Cinema Club in London's Soho resulted in a police raid and confiscation of the movie. 4 depraved fascists get a collection of young men and women (really, more like girls and boys) and let them know they are totally at the mercy of the situation, and no one will ever know they are there.

Thank you very much The sexual nightmare is not captured enough from the victims point of view and the nihilistic ecstacy not enough from the captors point of view.

I would of like the film if it had not been so disturbing, however the erotic side of the film kind of took that away so it wasn't that bad, it is an adult film and just gives the imagination at the end of the war. It is not pornographic, since there is no excitement at what one sees. I am indifferent to this film. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. One of these is of a young girl stripped nude with hungry rats tied around her genitals; a production photo of this scene serves as the background for one of the menu screens of the Criterion DVD. This is the most disgusting, sordid, sad, weird & extreme film I have ever watched, I couldn’t finish it. And, in listening to the commentary of the second disc, I am not alone.
