Mysterious Skin may be banned in Australia

Mysterious Skin may be banned in Australia Mysterious Skin, the new film by Gregg Araki, pictured, hasn't generated any controversy anywhere, but it may end up being banned in Australia. "I am very surprised," Araki said. "The fact (is) that the film has opened already in so many other countries with no incident, no problem with censorship or anything." The film, classified R18+, was referred to the Australian Office of Film and Literature Classification after a complaint by federal Attorney General Philip Ruddock with origin of the complaints tracing back to the Australian Family Association.�
