I'm feeling snotty tonight - please excuse.  

First saw this in a small theatre on the King's Road in the early 
70s; it was outrageous, and made us  fall  off  our  seats.   The
movie  seemed  pale  in  comparison (the surprise - shock?  - was
gone).  

I remember  having  a  similar  reaction  to  Mel  Brooks'  "The
Producers".   Saw  it about the same time, when it was an obscure
B-movie, and the shock- value alone had me rolling in the  aisles
("he  can't do that....").  I still enjoy the movie, but it's not
the same.
