I'm not of the belief that sex, in general, is too taboo just that the nudity in this scene was superfluous.
The scene could have been done without the nudity and would have lost nothing. This was supposed to be a young girl being impregnated she would have been a young girl, therefore the scene would have still been disturbing just in suggestion, with or without her exposed breasts.
The choice to show that was what elevated the scene into fanservice territory. It was precisely what was superfluous about the scene.
Again, I'm the last person who is going to complain about seeing breasts I'm just an opponent of trying to attribute artistic merit where it is not warranted.
This was not an instance of sexual expression in high art it was a sex scene in a low budget horror flick. Like I said, the director wanted to show tits, and the audience wanted to SEE tits. Making it out to be more than it was is just reaching. -

All I think that response deserves is this unfortunately:

That being said, I think it would be rated over it's actual rating (4.1) if this scene was replace be something more significant.
It was so out of context with the context of the couple disturbing their peace.
This movie was so bad
even a sex scene couldn't save it -

Well, somebody has the keep the cult alive. What happens when they all turn into adults and there are no more children left? Children are supposed to be the only ones with innocence and adulthood is supposed to be synonymous with wickedness and corruption in these people's minds, right? Making more children obviously prevents this from happening. I don't see how it was pointless or irrelevant to the plot. People just like to complain about anything they can.
