First contact with Sade was when I was 14/15. My cousin talked about him and said, I should watch "Salo oder die 120 Tage von Sodom" (or the 120 days of Sodom), which was an indexed movie by that time. Afaik people puked while the one and only possibly public viewing occured at a movie festival. The movie is truly fucked up! Can't recommend it anyone...
