24/7 Tempo's Most Controversial Films in History

"Nothing drums up publicity and drives curious viewers into movie theater seats better than a film that's just a little bit controversial. Some films are so controversial that it's become their whole identity, and these are the films that have gone down as the most controversial films of all time. When a film is truly, wildly, sensationally controversial, the buzz around its controversy usually starts to emerge during filming, or perhaps upon its arrival on the film festival circuit. The film might inspire walkouts, and it might prove to be so controversial that major distributors don't want to pick it up, making it hard-to-find. Some of these films were widely released and were very successful at the box office, but others were so off-putting to audiences that they stayed away in droves, relegating the film to videos and DVDs passed among friends. Some of these films are definitely in "watch at your own risk" territory, while others are more thought-provoking." - 247tempo.com
