As you say that particular scene (melting Email) was disgusting viewing it as a young one but watching it as an adult I was always amazed that Leon didn't put Emil out of his misery in that "hearllllaarrrp meeeaaah.." scene. He was carrying an assault cannon rifle after all.
'Don't touch me man' - Some mate he was.
The melting guy..
My first viewing of the film, was at roughly age 12 - on a rented VHS tape.
The uncut 'R' version.
Firstly, I was completely traumatized by the Murphy ambush / death scene. The boardroom ED-209 demo / volunteer execution left me in shock. Next - the melting guy.. "hearllllaarrrp meeeaaah.." - it's still disgusting to watch.. but when you're 12 - back in 1987.. it had an impact.
Paul Verhoven has a lot to answer for..
