I would point out one thing.

Movies are about visuals and images. The audio and dialog are really secondary. To back this statement up I would remind the reader that there were silent movies long before there were talkies.

So with movies like "The Hunt" or TV series like "The Hunters" if you really want to figure out what is the message they are trying to get across, then watch them with the sound turned off. The imagery is the real message. The audio is there to throw you off track, make you laugh, but people sub-consciously pick up on the visual meaning. Therein lies the danger. Taxi Driver anyone?

Big speakers and little amps blew my mind!

  There is one thing I wanted to edit in that post, but AA won't let me.
  
  I got the wrong Jodie Foster movie. I meant "The Accused" not Taxi Driver. Specifically the pool table rape scene. I believe that scene was recreated in real life by real people several times for a number of years after the movie was released.
