To give a related example, consider The Exorcist. Whilst the portrayal of the possession is pretty horrific, if you take a step backwards, it doesn't make sense. (The film-makers recognised that and put in a scene in which one of the priests says as much, and then the other replies, "It's to challenge our faith." And then the studio went and cut that scene, so it wasn't present in the original studio cut.)
