Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Offers a study of offensive movies - from the popular ""Faces of Death"" to purported snuff films, from classic B-movies such as ""The Tingler"" to controversial films such as ""The Texas Chainsaw Massacre"". Part anthropology, part psychoanalysis, this book vivisects these movies to figure out what is so offensive, obscene, or bizarre about them.
MoreLong description:
Brottman offers a study of movies so offensive, that some are practically unwatchable. From the ever-popular ""Faces of Death"" movies to purported snuff films, from classic B-movies such as ""The Tingler"", to more popular but no less controversial films such as ""The Texas Chainsaw Massacre"", Brottman takes a wide-eyed look at movies most folks watch only through parted fingers. Part anthropology, part psychoanalysis, ""Offensive Films"" vivisects these movies in order to figure out just what about them is so offensive, obscene, or bizarre.
