Description: Pasolini attempted to debunk his popular trilogy of life (The Decameron, The Canterberry Tales, The Arabian Nights) with his film Salo: 120 Days of Sodom. Take a mix of the Marquis de Sade’s book of the same name, a mix of Dante’s Inferno, update to Fascist WWII Italy and you get the acclaimed Italian director’s last film. The story involves a group comprised of the town of Salo’s elite (Banker, Magistrate, etc.) retreating to a chateau in the mountains.
Faced with a new sense of power they have under Mussolini’s social republic, the group round up local teens and perform out depraved fantasies that are told to them by an aging group of whores. Many consider this work to be one of the most disturbing films ever made. Beyond the endless scenes of coprophagy, I found the pacing to be the most unbearable part of this film. Pasolini was stabbed to death after the films completion.
P.S. It’s the sickiest film I ever seen! Asian movies with tortures and blood is nothing in comparrison with this. To be true I didn’t like it, I published it only because it belongs to the WIP genre

I agree with you that this is one sick movie, and Pasolini belonged in a loony bin. It is still a work of art, sick art no doubt, but art nonetheless. I too didn’t like it, but it does belong to the WIP genre.

I am chatting shocking because inside emotional thrillers plus dramas including “Requiem for a Dream”, “Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom” plus “Amores Perros”, videos which when you watched them we won’t like to observe again. I am not interested inside stupid videos like “Saw” or “The Human Centipede” I’ve watched then all.
Thank we

Requiem for a Dream, I have watched quite a few times and
still enjoy it. Films like Salo and A Serbian Film, I only needed to watch once. And didn’t recommend them
to any of my friends. None of my friends have the same film interests so no point. I will watch anything once.

This was The Only Book I have ever bought and went back and got my money back. Now This Film is believed to have been involved in His Murder as he was Murdered shortly afterwards Pasolini was murdered by being run over several times with his own car, dying on 2 November 1975 on the beach at Ostia, near Rome. Pasolini was buried in Casarsa, in his beloved Friuli.
Giuseppe Pelosi, a seventeen-year-old rentboy, was arrested and confessed to murdering Pasolini. Twenty-nine years later, on 7 May 2005, he retracted his confession, which he said was made under the threat of violence to his family. He claimed that three people “with a southern accent” had committed the murder, insulting Pasolini as a “dirty communist”.
Other evidence uncovered in 2005 pointed to Pasolini’s having been murdered by an extortionist. Testimony by Pasolini’s friend Sergio Citti indicated that some of the rolls of film from Salò had been stolen, and that Pasolini had been going to meet with the thieves after a visit to Stockholm, 2 November 1975. Despite the Roman police’s reopening of the murder case following Pelosi’s statement of May 2005, the judges charged with investigating it determined the new elements insufficient for them to continue the inquiry.
I think I`ll will pass by on this One….. It`s like Leni Reifenstahl`s Triumph of The Will. Although certain films are made nevertheless they are best viewed in a collegiate setting……merely as a study of technique.

KUDOS Sorbus49 great putting that out there.
Me, I love this twisted bit of celluloid. So much so in fact, named a band Salo after seeing this for the first time around 86, a beat and warbly multi generation vhs copy, which may be the best way to view this. But, looking forward to the BR, Pasolini is one of my heros.
KUDOS WIP!
Looking forward to hearing again from you soon as well, hope all is in order with you and yours.
