You're ?15?, right? I saw it for the first time when I was about 13 or 14, and it was very unsettleing for me.....and I too watched a lot of horror type films...but this for some reason made me all morbid for days after seeing it, still does.

Yeh you're right. I just love the intensity of the first half the second half is good but I don't like it as much as the first. Probably my favorite Vietnam war film.

It's an unsettling movie no matter what age you are...for me, that's what is so good about it.

Just how absurd, overblown the violence is portrayed... very cartoon like (kinda like Natural Born Killers did years later).

You should be able to get it pretty easily from most stores. Try Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk (for PAL format) if all else fails.

But that was the intention I think. I mean, Alex and his friends are having fun through a bit of the old 'Ultra-violence' and via rape - in-out in-out.
Hell, he begins beating the shit out of the writer whilst singing the Gene Kelly sone, "Singing in the rain".
