I learned of the breastfeeding/rape scene on a mssg board where we were discussing horror movies. Someone had mentioned that they were really uncomfortable with violence towards children. Specifically the zombie baby in the "Dawn of the Dead" remake...it apparently ruined the movie for the guy...Regardless that a zombie baby is not a child, it's a monster, so I don't get what that gaybo's problem was. For me, the zombie baby is almost my favorite aspect of the new DotD, second only to the opening credits with Cash's 'When the Man Comes Around'... but anyway back on topic. I mentioned that the only frightening, or rather, even remotely pulse quickening part of "Saw" was when the killer's patsy is pointing a gun at the little girls head. Someone then mentioned the breastfeeding/rape scene in the new "Hills Have" Eyes as just being 'too much' for him. So in my mind the scene that played out before I even saw the movie was worse then what was actually in the movie, not only was a woman being raped by some hillbilly mutant... but she's breastfeeding her baby during it. Now as I typed that, it doesn't sound worse then what happens in the movie.
