Todd Browning's FREAKS!
 
This movie was great. Is it true that there really were so-called 'freaks' in the film? I hate to use the word 'freaks' in that sense, but can't find a better word.

Anyone seen photos of modern day 'freaks'? Post 'em here!

Freaks is a spectacular classic, and one of the greatest and most shocking films of all time.

Yes it's true that all of the "freaks" were disabled human beings.

No I will not post pictures of modern day "freaks".
You obviously did not get anything besides a dull unconsious entertainment out of the movie.

I've never seen this, but I'd like too.

Another great Todd Browing shock classic with a real twist. The twisted ending is unbelivable especially from a film from 1932!! Todd Browing was quite an innovator. TCM will air this classic on Friday November 17th (latenight hours). Something to check out if you haven't seen it yet.:cool:

Not only is it a great film, but it should be quite safe from the remake monster currently terrorizing our beloved films. I can't imagine that any studio would hold casting calls for "freaks" these days.

No, they'll remake it. They'll just use shitty looking CGI for the freaks.

When they spoofed that scene on southpark, it was probably the creepiest thing that show has ever done...
