Review:
This movie was once banned in: Australia, Nova Scotia, New Zealand, and the UK.

It is banned in: Ontario, Finland, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, (and probably Sweden, too).

The countries that lifted the ban, probably only did so for a heavily cut version.

Often named by film critic Roger Ebert as the worst movie ever made.
But - I love it. :/ :)

It is definately a Hurly movie. It is very violent.
So, I do not recommend this movie, unless you are into other movies like it.
