We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

What's there to say about Salò that hasn't already been said? Is it disgusting? Yes. Are most of the events on screen unsimulated? Also yes. Will it make you throw your popcorn at the screen and hate whoever recommended it to you? Probably, yes. Should you still watch it? Well if you're interested in the history of transgressive and taboo cinema, or just really like to torture your eyeballs with movies that'd ruin worst enemies' days, absolutely.
