Salo isn't even top three to me. It's pretty depraved in storyline, but in terms of what you physically see I don't honestly think it's that bad. A lot of scenes like the dogfood with nails in just look so cheap and badly done, by today's standards, that they've lost a lot of their shock value.
The likes of the turtle soup scene in CH are still shocking today, that holds more merit for me, personally.
Freaks is a REALLY odd one, the audios bad in parts as its from the 1930s and some of the characters can't speak all too well. I found the wiki article on the characters infinitely more interesting than the film itself. The films okayish, some terrible moments like Prince Randian crawling through mud with a knife his mouth like a man with no arms or legs is seriously threatening a Strongman LOL!
There's a kind or moral to it in that the 'normal' beautiful woman who tries to con one out money is actually the ugliest at hard. I liked that.
Not so much a horror or truly that disturbing IMO. I love having it in my collection though, I'd have never picked this up otherwise..
