Joe Bob strikes back again!
In this companion to “Profoundly Disturbing,” Joe Bob Briggs’ expert film criticism and razor wit are put to good use in analyzing some of the most titillating films found in our cultural lexicon.
I’d say this is a slightly weaker volume than its companion, but it was fun to read and I finished it in a few weeks.
The best material is covered in the earlier chapters, watching how Hollywood grappled with sexual content — something viewers wanted and evangelicals despised.
