FACES OF DEATH IS A SHAM So I'm watching this documentary on Friday night called "The Dark Side of Porn: Does Snuff Exist?" The title was amusing, to the say the least, suggesting a light side of porn. In any case, its a short clip, about 45 minutes, so I delve in and about halfway through, the director of Faces of Death is interviewed and he announced most of the scenes are completely staged. Although some of the clips are real situations, all of the up close action is scripted. Real video of people out on ledges or otherwise are merely spliced with other video of actors on crudely shot film to make it look real.



Persuaded to have believed its real when I was in high school, some of those scenes have echoed in my mind ever since and terrified me. Bravo, Faces of Death, you son of a bitch. Bravo.  ¶ 8:54 AM
