From the website:
These are movies about which you could say, “That’s Not Entertainment.” They’re not “rides” or “diversions.” They are galvanizing experiences that place squarely in your face all the stuff Hollywood usually presumes you go to the movies to get away from. Films that rearrange your head, that challenge your bedrock ideas about life and love and the big sleep. Consciousness-expanders, in other words, but rarely in a pleasant way. Thank God for them.
After looking at the movies on this list, I really don’t think the word ‘dangerous’ applies. Maybe ‘shocking’ or possibly ‘outrageous’, but how exactly are they dangerous? Then again, I don’t look at movies like ‘diversions’, as Premiere says: movies to me aren’t just empty entertainment. I’m not saying that this is a bad list – I like quite a few movies here – I just think that the name’s a little decieving.
