I've heard a number of people reminiscing how their parents decided to buy a cute cartoon about bunnies for their young kid, but they didn't realize that the movie has a couple of scenes with blood-soaked mutilated corpses on-screen. Bambi has some scenes involving death too, but they're not as graphic.

But it is.

There wasn't the film was a massive success in the UK. Then again going by the Government PSA's from this period, and the fact Jimmy Savile was a national treasure. Traumatizing children was no big deal.

That's not what I'd call it. It was terrifying if you were three or four years old. But to OP's question, no. There was no controversy because people weren't immense pussies a few decades ago.

I think if it came out today no one would care. Violence just wasn't that mainstream.

Which one us more violent really depends on whether you're more afraid of blood, or fire. Generally people are more bothered by blood.

And? Rabbits die in horrible ways all the time. I've been seeing and clearing up dead rabbits since I was three. And shooting them myself since I was ten.
