It got pulled. But no maliciousness or satire was intended. The movie "The Village", an Amish-type genre was a reflection of the fact you cannot run from human violence.

I think it was good point. There are groups of conservative/traditional people who think they can insulate themselves from the secular world, and save themselves and their families from the bad influences. While I admire their efforts, as long as human nature is weak, there will be sin. If such people are Christian, I think they run the risk of ignoring Our Lord's commission to spread the Gospel to the four corners of the earth.
