Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom (1975)


An art film by Pier Paolo Pasolini.
Young prisoners are tortured and a woman relates stories of a perverse sexual nature.
I don't know whether to be confused by this or disgusted. It would seem that there is no real plot to this film and the characters don't make a big difference. The height of my disgust was reached at a scene in which a girl is forced to eat poop. Everyone eating poop in the next scene paled in light of the initial shock. The production value was superb, considering the date. I have to rate this poor because I don't think it's worth watching.
