Disney totally made me into the fan of darkness that I am. They used to make kids films filled with horrific images (the wicked witch in SNOW WHITE, the dargon in SLEEPING BEAUTY) and death (BAMBI's mom).

They were super manipulative films and I loved them for it. These days I keep running into people (my own siblings included) who think a child shouldn't know about death, which I find odd. Oh well, to each his own.

I'm totally not attacking you Urge, I respect your point of view, I simply have the opposite reaction when something pushes my buttons... I LOVE it:D It's what I always hope for in film and so rarely get.

**Fair Warning**you might not want to watch GIALLO or THE TOKAREV;)
