1. It's a Republican S and M flick.

2. Just an over-hyped snuff film.
But as long as there's no sex, the violence is acceptable :). Or so the fundies would have us believe.

3. Something about Gibson
Braveheart was too bloody for me too.

4. Realism Perhaps
Such things were bloody. Suppose MM does a film on the iraq war someday - should he make it realistic or sugar coat the pain and horror that is really going there?

5. The Heinz Ketchup people must have made a fortune off this movie.

7. My FundaMental sister loved it. And this is the sister who
didn't want to get married if it meant a blood test.
Go figure.
She's very conservative.
Joined more of a cult than a church, in my opinion.
They didn't want her to go to my Catholic wedding.
(that was a LONG time ago, but they haven't changed -- Catholics aren't Christians to them...go figure once more)

Anyway, here she comes after watching that movie and asks me about The Stations of the Cross. Whoa?

I told her I could not watch that piece of crap. That it didn't come out of any bible I had ever followed. And I have read the Bible cover to cover at least twice (had to take 9 units of Religion).

Needless to say, that was the end of the conversation.
