Four fascist libertines round up 9 teenages boys and girls and subject them to 120 days of physical, mental and sexual torture

Set in the Nazi-controlled, northern Italian state of Salo in 1944, four dignitaries round up sixteen perfect specimens of youth and take them together with guards, servants and studs to a palace near Marzabotto. In addition, there are four middle-aged women: three of whom recount arousing stories whilst the fourth accompanies on the piano. The story is largely taken up with their recounting the stories of Dante and De Sade: the Circle of Manias, the Circle of Shit and the Circle of Blood. Following this, the youths are executed whilst each libertine takes his turn as voyeur.

Never has a film had more questions than Salo - The 120 Days of Sodom. People hear about how disgusting it is and, of course, interest is peaked. The best way to introduce Salo is to quote the back sleeve of the Criterion disc: "A loose adaptation of the Marquis De Sade's The 120 Days of Sodom. Pier Paolo Pasolini's Salo is perhaps the most disturbing and disgusting film ever made. It is also one of the most important, offering a blistering critique of fascism and idealism that suggests moral redemption may be nothing but a myth, Criterion presents Salo in its uncut, uncensored version." The following review will contain spoilers for the film. It is also presented in an uncut, uncensored version to give everyone a feel for what exactly is disturbing and disgusting in Salo.

Its an italian movie!

if it's only the ****s, i can stand, but it's much worse than ****s. so I gave up, and don't regret though it is said as a "classic" movie...

As to the scene eating shit, yeah..I did see that....but if you consider the shit as chocolate icecream, then you won't feel too sick....yep....it's quite graphic and disturbing....
