i believe this to be undeniably true.
i have seen several posts to this effect.
the booze analogy is pretty apt too.
again, i'm not saying these films shouldnt be made - or we have to stop everything to consider the tiny minority of damaged people who will use this for negative reinforcement - (they are already fucked ...movies wont push them in a direction they are already headed)
but i do believe that some folks who are into extreme films will eventually become jaded re. material that was origionally found to be cutting edge.
