Freaks was a disturbing early thriller type movie that starred a group of disabled sideshow circus acts who get revenge on their ringleader when his heart gets broken by a trapeze artist. Freaks was banned for 30 years in the UK because it showcased disabled folks. The film is only available to view through a second-recording home-video format that's pretty difficult to find.
