Midnight Express/YMMV

Adaptation Displacement: The film these days is better known than the book.
Complete Monster: The Turkish Prison officials.
Crowning Music of Awesome: Giorgio Moroder's theme (used in Coast to Coast AM) and his haunting electronic score. It was the first 100% electronic score to be awarded an Acadamy Award.
High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Very. The torture scenes are very brutal (considering that this is not a horror film), the desolate atmosphere of Turkish prison life, and all of the scenes in the prison's insane asylum. Also see the Nausea Fuel section.
Nausea Fuel: In a fit of rage, Billy bites off a piece of Rifki's tongue in a kiss, and spits it out onto the ground.
Unfortunate Implications: all over the place.
Values Dissonance
