Fantastic Planet (1973) [SHADOW BANNED IN THE USA]

Reason for Shadow Ban: "What the hell is this?!" (Didn't know how to market it)
* Very limited release (arthouse and midnight screenings) and outright bans in Conservative markets
* Conter-culture drive-in theaters and movie houses embraced it
* Missed the mainstream cinemas entirely
* Anti-authoritarian themes and strange visuals were deemed "subversive"
* People feared it would be used as a "trip movie" (drop acid/LSD and watch it)
