Ratings boards, broadcast standards, age barriers: for decades, these were the walls keeping “transgressive” content out of reach. Streaming and the internet tore them down.
In this clip from Deep Cuts — the 75-minute documentary on the 1970s censorship battles that reshaped British horror, featured in The House of Hammer Volume 1 — we explore what’s replaced the old gatekeepers: private platforms setting their own rules, graphic content gone mainstream, and a media landscape with no gatekeepers left at all. The argument: the fight was never really about restriction. It’s about teaching people to think critically about what they consume.
