Kim ki-Duk's "Samaria" movie poster controversy.

Well not surprising for those who know Kim ki-Duk's work, he likes to shock. He won best director at Berlin film festival for Samaria (aka Samaritan Girl) by the way.

Here it goes: (Warning - Somewhat mature)

pretty or not, it's not very controversial to my eyes. Maybe I just don't get offended by exposed boob or naked nuns.

I'm not offended either but I could see that some people would.

Has to be good if it made the nunsploitation website though.

It's not whether shes pretty, It's not just cause shes naked.

It's cause she is naked and wearing the Nun garb. Seems like most have missed this.

Not to mention when you add in the content of the film, her nudity and what she is wearing.

C'mon people, pay attention.

Counter-programming to that Mel Gibson movie.

Now I want to see this movie, so the poster worked for me.

I could see that the near nudity combined with the nun's "coif" would probably be problematic for some people though.
