...Assaulted by such oddities, visitors to the Anthology auditorium will be alternating between exclamations of ?Wow!? and ?Ick.? Some of the movies feature deeds so repellent that the season?s curators feel it necessary to post a warning that this is gross-out stuff, suitable For Disturbed Men Only. Hence, a space will be set aside at Anthology as an ?Inappropriate Date Rescue Station for the comfort and enjoyment of our patrons. ... We have provided an oasis of civility in the lobby where the victims of bad dates can wait for their socially maladjusted partner to leave the theater...

The Italian ring, allegedly led by a man police will identify only as a phone company employee nicknamed Robhy, was selling $60 million-worth of this stuff each year over the Internet using three Italian websites. (Visitors to those sites now see a Guardia di Finanza logo and a message saying they have been shut down.)
