Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Banned in China: This film was predictably banned on about half of Europe for about 20 years following its release. Now it has been unbanned pretty much everywhere.
  • Shout-Out: "It has a reputation for being one of the single most vile, depraved, despicable, infamous and controversial films in cinema history." So of course there's a character named after its director in the Japanese all-ages cartoon Girls und Panzer, specifically because of this film.
