	Description:		Welcome friends to a discussion about a very serious subject: Censorship. So the concept this week was to give an overview of how censorship has impacted the horror genre in the past and how it continues to loom over the film industry today. To frame our topic we conduct the podcast with the recently banned in the UK title Grotesque playing along in the background. The show swings between our personal stances on censorship to on point remarks about the film as it plays to demonstrate the issues at hand while attempting to validate an art form for it's potential merits and the perceived threat it may hold. It's not a simple issue but we think the format allowed for some good insights to get across. Whether you consider yourself a proponent of regulating content or stand in vehement opposition, on thing is certain - censorship remains a contentious and troublesome issue. Some upcoming event films are discussed being Avatar (2009) and The Wolfman (2010), and oh yes...the Aussie film pick of the week is the 1984 opus Razorback.
