It’s amazing how bad things have gotten. I recall about a year ago I was zipping through my channels on DirecTV (and I didn’t even have the usual “pay” movie channels), and I came upon the Encore movie channel. There was a scene in a movie of a wolfman/wolfmonster graphically raping some young woman, and then slitting her throat, as her helpless boyfriend watches in horror from an adjacent room. Said wolfman then goes to the boyfriend and bloodily rips his testicles off.
You know, I’m not averse to the horror film genre. Used to love the old-time horror films. But somehow, just flipping through channels and running into this, it really hit home how vomitous the whole culture has become. I got rid of my dish after that. I really have zero interest in seeing a single second of anything modern anymore. I’ll just stick to old, vintage films and tv-shows from an America that I love and can morally relate to.

It was a year or so ago when my dish had a few weeks of the old Bond movies. That was fun.
Try the Encore Westerns channel. Lots of classic Western movies going back to the 1940s and up to about the 1990s. ....Much better, IMO, than most of present day movies. John Wayne, Van Cleef, Eastwood, Autry, spaghetti westerns, etc.
You know, I watched the Freddy Kruger series and the first couple of films were cool, but it degenerated into gross gore.
It’s the same with almost all these films; it’s getting more and more and more out of control graphic and I’m tired of it.
