Fun the first couple of times
It gets old pretty quickly but it is quite an icebreaker. I first played it at a local munch and it was a lot of fun but the novelty wears off after a while. This is not a game to play with your aunt or anyone who clutches their pearls on the regular unless those pearls are anal beads, and then all bets are off. It's dirty, graphic, full of sexual situations, and lots of things that will offend the average citizen. This game is only for the immature or dirty-minded (in a good way.) I mentioned it to my psychiatrist and she immediately bought a deck and played it with her friends and family then bought all the extensions. The cool kids (my psychiatrist and those like her) play it at the psychiatry practice meetings sometimes.

But how many times can you really answer a question with, "A 3-ft long black double-sided dildo" before it gets old?

1975 | Drama, Horror, War

"I didn’t know there were films that represented the things represented in this film. I didn’t know you could do that. People didn’t think you could do that when this film came out. I always ask myself: how macabre can we go, how graphic can we go, how dark can we go. And the commitment of these actors to the horror that they’re subjected to in this film—you can’t fake that stuff; it’s happening. This nudity is happening, this scatological stuff . . . I don’t know how much of that stuff was happening, but it’s just pure terror and pure excess. There’s also something unwittingly seductive about the beautiful, heightened elements of the film. There aren’t many films that communicate the dangers and trespasses of fascism better than this one. The terror is not in some externalized war story, it’s something that is very domestic and very tangible. You can’t forget a film like Salò, and the shock and the horror of it make such an effective medium for its serious political themes. I think it kind of shares that with Assassination Nation."
