My wife and I (and I am not easy to shock) were actually sickened by it, it was so undelightfully twisted.

Perhaps it was that our expectations for it were askew (given that it was an animated picture)… but we found it deeply disturbed in a way that I have not found in more mainstream horrific movies.

The rest of the franchise has been devoted to backlash against this “error” ever since, but as a teenager watching this film, I really felt something different was going on.
