Group builds porn dossier
PA .Wellington The group, Women Against Pornography, is building a file listing video tapes which it describes as pornographic and which are legally available in Wellington. The group said it would make descriptions of the content of the films to women throughout New Zealand so that they could take action in theirwiown areas. ’t The title and advertising
of videos and films were frequently not indicative of their content, a spokeswoman said. A case in point was the recently released “Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” which focused primarily on .the "terror of one woman trapped in a room with her torturers.” The spokeswoman said the group was angry that the Chief Censor had passed the film for viewing in New Zealand.
