Leaving aside how you would acquire it. Just assume that you have a dvd or have the file on your hard drive;

would you actually watch it?

A snuff movie is a motion picture genre that depicts the actual death or murder of a person or people, without the aid of special effects, for the express purpose of distribution and entertainment or financial exploitation. For-profit snuff films are generally regarded as an urban legend, whose persistence demonstrates more about our anxieties than the reality of such films being made. Some filmed records of executions and murders exist but have not been made or released for commercial purposes.

No.

[MTVN]

Yeah, out of curiosity, if I have just happened to acquired it already it isnt like I'm putting money in the producers hands just by watching it

[Niall]

God no. I can barely handle a horror film. D;

[Smithy]

No, I heard about that 3 guys one hammer thing and just the details made me feel sick, how anyone could watch it ;/

[Josy]

No I wouldn't.

[GypsyGoth]

Nope, I won't even watch those youtube type vids of people dying or getting badly hurt.

[Lee.]

No definitely not! I don't really understand how someone could tbh

[Zippy]

Im not sure I could. It may stick in my head.

Last year my mate had these horror files that were of real nasty stuff like accidents. He had a very short(like 30 secs) file supposedly depicting a Russian beheading. I couldnt face the screen and had him describe what was happening instead! he's from Lithuania so could understand Russian. He said it was very real. Gulp!

yeah, it's pretty sickening, I can't watch things like saw or hostel but knowing that it was real and actually happened to the person for real would be vile.

Oh I wouldnt watch that, but I wouldnt really want to watch that if it wasnt real either.

Oh I can watch any horror film. Because I know its fake and can rationalise it in my head.

But if it were real its a whole new ball game. Thats real suffering and real crime. And real blood! Ew

I don't understand why anyone would willingly pay money to go and see a film where someone is chopped up violently like in Saw or Hostel. It makes me feel sick.

Can't remember the guysname, but there was a British hostage being held in Iraq (may have been Afghan) and they eventually filmed him being beheaded with rather a blunt knife.. It was all over the internet ad I never understood how people could watch it?!
Surely that kind of **** could affect you for the rest of your life??

yeah, I think you'd have to be a bit heartless to watch one without being distraught afterwards, I know I'd have problems getting it out of my head if I did.

[Zippy]

I recently found a site that has lots of GIFs of people having nasty accidents or shooting themselves in the head!

You have to grab them fast as they get removed quick!

This. You dont need to look to hard to find such images so I would'nt go out of my way to acquire a snuff movie.

[_Seth]

I honestly don't know... maybe. It would have to be with someone else and not be a really nasty scene...

any thing with torture in it, I can't bear(eventhough I know it's not real!)

[Zippy]

I might watch it with squinted eyes. Thats a good trick to soften the effect. But if they were screaming or crying...forget it!

[MTVN]

I remember there was a thread a couple of weeks ago of really sick accidents and stuff and one was a clip of a guy shooting himself in the head in the police interview room, it is pretty weird knowing you just watched someone end their life. There's that clip of Saddam Hussein getting hung as well, that's all over the web

I'm the same way. I've never watched a proper horror film before and I don't intend to start now.

I'm the same.. I'm ok with blood/gore/violence... but scenes of torture or extreme cruelty makes be squirm!
