death
I was happy believing snuff movies were a myth, or extremely rare.
Now I need these bastards dead (extremely painfully if possible, but I’ll take anything that removes them from society).
I already did, of course, but now it’s even more urgent.
Wait I thought to be a true “snuff film” it had to be like an actual scripted narrative film with like “filmmakers” wherein someone is murdered on screen for real, not just home murder movies, am I wrong? If any recorded murder counts then of course there’s snuff films, 3 guys 1 hammer comes to mind, BTK, etc, but I thought it had to be like a proper movie.
If I’m right then this is more of a home movie/blackmail material situation, I don’t think they have like a secret Woody Allen film (though nothing is impossible, he’s in the files, they could.)
No. The term applies to any video footage of somebody actually dying, as opposed to a film where the death is staged.
snuff film
noun
A movie in a purported genre of movies in which an actor is actually murdered or commits suicide
A film that shows, or purports to show, the actual deliberate killing of one of the performers.
Sorry but no, that is the misconception I’m speaking of. Back when this was originally posted months ago it prompted me to look it up, finding the definition, which quite clearly through the use of the words “actor” and “performers” does differentiate it from simple videos of death/murder to mean a scripted work that contains a death/murder. Which makes more sense in the “snuff films are a myth” context, because quite clearly “videos of death” are verifiably real, which would put that entire debate to rest.
Edit: terms and words have multiple definitions, and change over time.
And then they passed this rule that only congress members (personally, no aides) can look at the files, on provided government computers.
They’re on display in the bottom drawer of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying “Beware of the Leopard”.
