    I was severely disturbed by that flick.  The music had this eerie
    "fundamentalist porn" feel to it, and Jeesus came across as a seething
    psychopath who was, luckily, able to restrain himself and gain
    the respect of his contemporaries.  I thought he was going to snap
    at any moment.
    
    Critics have said Pasolini was trying to appease the church, to fool
    them into ignoring subtle heresies, and then to point out ecclesiastic
    sloppiness and hypocrisy later.  By Salo, I guess that was moot.
