Like the List. Made me realize how many really great movies were actually" taboo-breakers". Tarnation, Birth, Gummo, in the realm of the senses, the boys in the band come to my mind

apparently aladdin was considered incredibly racist, especially because of the line in the opening song about murdering et cetera, and then "it's barbaric, but hey, it's home."

Great list! I spit on your grave is now on here. I also recommenced Hated, Sick: The Life and Death of Bob Flanagan and That's Just Wrong (also Sex, Blood and Mutilation but sadly not yet on here)

and Jack Smith's Flaming Creatures ("Due to its surreal, graphic depiction of sexuality, the film was seized by the police at its premiere, and was officially determined to be obscene by a New York Criminal Court"-Wikipedia)

you should add Makavejev's Sweet Movie ("coprophilia, emetophilia, fondling, and footage of remains of the Polish Katyn Massacre victims. The film was banned in many countries, or severely cut. It is still banned in many countries to this day.-Wikipedia) and Mysteries of the Organism - juxtaposes orgasms with communists
