Description

From the murky depths can come the most extraordinary things...

Profoundly Disturbing examines the startling and controversial movies that have -- unexpectedly and often unintentionally -- revolutionized the way that all movies would be made. These milestone films pioneered new cinematographic techniques, subversive narrative structuring, and guerrilla marketing strategies that would change the face of mainstream cinema. Most importantly, they expanded what could be shown on screen and introduced us to a new, darker side of the cinema. Joe Bob Briggs, dubbed "the aficionado of trash" by The Wall Street Journal, uncovers fifteen of the twentieth century's most seminal cult movies, revealing the fascinating stories behind their making, complemented by "For Further Disturbance" sections with recommendations for hundreds of related movies. Profoundly Disturbing finds order amidst the chaos of bizarre cinema and provides a guide that's essential for all movie-lovers, especially those who think they've seen everything.
