I don't see how a few people can watch it and decide for the rest of the british public whether or not it is suitable for them.
Suggesting it is harmful and may have a negative effect on us is terrible because the last time I heard, not everyone who watches a sick film looks at it and decides "hey, i'm gonna go out and do that."
I could understand if it was real life obviously, but the film is clearly fake and if a person watches it who is sick enough to get off on it, then that person will find a way to watch it whether it is banned or not. Probably more so because it is.
I sat through A Serbian Film and felt physically sick but that's what sets me (and the majority of the british public) apart from the sickos who will sit there and enjoy it. It's not because we enjoy watching them but it's like a rollercoaster, there's kudos that goes with "oh yeah, I'm man enough to watch that."

Agreed, no matter how sick it is censorship shouldnt still be happening with films, what right does the BBFC have to tell people what they can and cant watch
