"Art, or rather the creative forces that drive 'art'--and by art I mean all creative expression including exploitation and horror cinema--needs extremes, and people occasionally need to be upset by extremes in order to move forward. The old, safe world of acceptable art where all facets are known to us and where shocks are contrived and controlled needs the occasional kick in the face to save us from sliding slowly into inertia." --Nigel Wingrove "The Art of the Nasty"
