chris, Southern Comfort had a scene of a pig being slaughtered, very disturbing (even though it happens every day & my stepdad regularly did it for food at our house every year-i never had the heart to be around when this happened though)
animal abuse has been written about a lot in relation to it's role in film (Chas Balun's Deep Red publications wrote a lot about the matter), & it will continue to be a hot topic among genre fans I'm sure...both sides raise interesting & pertinent questions...I'm sure doing a Google search can uncover some articles/threads arguing both sides...
when it comes to "horse tripping", I know they used to do it a lot in westerns domestically & stopped, but other countries often have no such rules unfortunately
