"I definitely think even watching this today even though it's from 1932 you can argue this movie stand the teat of time. This was phenomenal and definitely somewhere on my top list. The movie does include real sideshow performers and the word freaks how it is represented how it is used pay attention the story the horror the code of the freaks per say. This was so good chefs kiss I am literally going down a rabbit hole looking up this film how it was banned how it actually had scenes of gore but it got cut up how all the extra footage is seemingly lost. Since we are stepping into spooky season perfect excuse to step into this one."
"I know it’s a classic and it’s critical of “human zoo” entertainment, but it also fully leans in to the exploitation. The ending is absolutely chilling and nauseating. It’s certainly not a movie that has dulled with age, but the fact that it does so on the backs of the “freaks” remains upsetting."
