The three-decade old film follows the story of a street sweeper named Robert.

However, it explores grotesque themes of necrophilia - sexual acts in involving corpses - much to the disgust of film enthusiasts.

The disgusting mindset is shared with his wife, Betty who also takes part in the disturbing fantasy.

In the end, he ends up getting fired from his job and he takes his own life.

At the time, a representative from the company explained: "Unless we decide to do a cover-mount DVD on a tabloid, which will obviously never happen, who's going to be offended?"

However, fans who watched it seemed to seriously regret going to a screening.

"I think this is the only horror movie I can remember that I regret seeing. It revolves around necrophilia and is basically soft core necrophilia porn," exclaimed one moviegoer on the social media site Reddit.

Although, the film did get its own sequel called Nekromantik 2, which started right where the first film ended.

However, the second film instead focused on a different character, a nurse named Monika.

Another film along the same lines was the 1980 horror flick, Cannibal Holocaust.

It followed a group of people who ventured into the Amazon Rainforest, only to encounter a tribe of cannibals.

Before the release, it's been reported that Director Ruggero Deodato ordered the cast not to make any media appearances a year before the film was released.

This was to give audiences the impression that the actors had really disappeared.

When the film was released, there was such an outcry that authorities seized the film for its depictions of violence, animal cruelty, and sexual assault.

The director was even arrested on charges for murder, as one scene realistically showed an actress being impaled on a wooden stake.

After much speculation, the charges were dropped after three of the stars appeared on Italian television, proving they were alive.

However, actors and the crew were still absolutely disgusted by the fact that a number of animals were killed on set.

These included a pig, a monkey, a turtle, a coati, and a boa,and the movie was still censored on the grounds of cruelty to animals.

Actors could barely finish

Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom followed a similar fate as the other movies.

Pier Paulo Pasolini made the horror flick in 1975 and it has since been described as one of the most disturbing films of all time.

It follows a group of Italian men who kidnapped a number of teenagers.

So disturbing was the themes and dialogue, that actors could barely finish the lines.

Based on the book by Marquis de Sade, it was banned in Italy, , Australia, West Germany, New Zealand and Norway.
