POINT BLANK. (1967) Saw it back then. Now got it on DVD. Brutal for it’s time before the movie industry in 1968 dumped the Hays Code and chose a joke of a ratings system (GMRX) to reign in “violence” on the screen. Instead it unleashed some of the most vile brutal bloody and sex films ever seen.
Some ever reshot scenes to add more blood, guts, most vile cursing, and lots of sex.
As an adult in 1969 I saw a Glen Ford movie HEAVEN WITH A GUN rated “G”. ids were in the audience. Posters still show the “G” on them.
Saw it not long go on the STARZ Westerns channel with added topless nude scenes that would have given it a heavy “R” rating in 1969.
