@BowsacNoodle @Stagg_3751 Gore is a cheap way to make your work seem transgressive, edgy, or adult. Adding in sexuality and making everything feel icky and perverse appeals to people who only understand adulthood as "Ah now I can indulge in vices."

There is a reason I refuse to watch The Boys and it's not because I'm particularly squeamish, I just find that level of subversion and nihilism to be off-putting. I felt the same way about the Final Destination and Saw films. Although I do admit to watching the Making Of of the former because I think practical effects are cool.
