This will be followed by several pathetic bandwagon jumping moralists, using the death of two people to agitate for the censorship and banning of "evil" films, music, art etc. You think it won't happen? It has already in recent times, and "new" Labour Christian and Islamic moralists are equally as pathetic and beyond contempt as Conservative ones.
Getting back to BWP, I think I must have had an "American" reaction to it - I thought the principals involved so ghastly and
whiny, that I was actually willing them to be offed. The ending smacked to me at the time of the infamous BBC "Ghostwatch" broadcast, a view I'm still inclined to hold now. I also still believe that the basic structure and concept of the film has borrowed a lot from "Cannibal Holocaust" - forget the sleaze aspect of "C.H." for a moment, and try to remember the structure of it.
