Snuff Films
You ever seen someone die on camera?
A snuff film is a recording of the actual murder of human being that is subsequently passed around for entertainment purposes. Suicides and accidents don’t count. According to the MPAA, the FCC, the FBI and the ever-lovin’ Snopes.com, there’s no such thing as a snuff film. Yes, this includes Faces of Death Anything you think might count is faked, falsified, or not made for that purpose, such as those tasteless videos you find on shock sites.
This is a lie.
There are, as best as anyone can tell, between 30-40 snuff films floating around out there. The earliest is a silent film on decaying nitrate celluloid, simply titled La mort d’une fille, and bears the date of 1896.
The latest, judging by the hairstyles and the presence of a “Frankie Says Relax” t-shirt, was probably made in 1983 or 1984 and is on Betamax.
The films vary in violence, but they all include seemingly ritualized sex, followed by the slaying of a girl with dirty blonde hair and piercing blue eyes who appears to be around 19 years old.
That’s right…every film has the exact same girl in it.

Interesting stuff, nice detail with the French version although the dating could be dubious.
I’m reminded of the “Moonlight Films” pasta…easily my all-time fave.

Oooh, Mindfuck.
But… why is it the same girl every time?

Does anyone remember that Nicholas Cage movie called “8mm”? … this is almost exactly like that movie. Except, in the movie, the real girl was the blond, and she only died once. However, they did pass around a reference where the same girl starred in multiple snuff films…

….This is odd.

Er.. alright. Not really creepy, just weird. How can the blonde girl be in every film, when the first one was of just decaying nitrate celluloid? Does she make a cameo appearance or something?
And @2– it made me lol too. I am now imagining “Relax” playing in the background, whilst the blonde has crazy sex and is then killed.

It is the same girl because snuff films aren’t real and this particular actress is in all of the fake snuff films.

So… she is not human? Or reincarnates into the same body every time?

This one was ultra freaky for me, because I am a dirty blonde with blue eyes, who is nineteen as of this year. :___( but so far no one has approached me about my snuff destiny, I’ll let you guys know when it happens!

Pastas that have that last-line chiller are always the best.
