Nasty Exploitation!

One day while bored at work, aimlessly surfing the net, I stumbled upon a list of movies that had been banned in England in the 80's called The Video Nasties. Intrigued, I rented from Netflix what were supposed to be the most controversial movies on the list, Cannibal Holocaust and I Spit on Your Grave.
From what I read these films were supposed to be the most disturbing, hard to watch pieces of cinema trash ever made, but low and behold, I enjoyed the heck out of them! I started renting more and more of these disgusting gems and they're a surprising lot that have been released on DVD, uncut no less, thanks in part to Something Weird Video and Blue Underground.
Admittedly, some of the movies on the list are beyond terrible and a chore to sit through, but most I've seen have at least some entertainment value to a warped mind like mine.
