Best Buy did.

Watched Snuff: A Documentary About Killing on Camera yesterday. Pretty good, short documentary about the alleged existence of snuff films, especially the one that allegedly started it all - Snuff (originally Slaughter) from 1976. Also covered flicks like Cannibal Holocaust, Faces of Death, etc. all films where the deaths on screen were fake (trust me, when you see some of the scenes that folks back then were freaking out about, the footage wasn't just painfully obvious, it's almost quaint in comparison to today's horror effects), and alleges that a flick created by the Manson family back in the 60's existed and was real (there was a mention of the Tate-LaBianca murders was filmed by the murderers as well, but the film was confiscated during the trials and will never see the light of day).

A fascinating documentary, and a good subject for Iggy to start a horror thread about.

If you haven't already you should watch The Dark Side Of Porn - Does Snuff Exist? on youtube.

I'll give it a look see, Phedg, thanks!

I'm in a bit of a mood to examine the creepy dark underbelly of society lately, so shit like this'll make me appreciate the light more.

Tim's gonna turn into Nic Cage in '8MM'.

Lincoln Lawyer

Liked it quite a lot. Very solid and competent little thriller. Definitely a dying breed at the multiplexes nowadays. Fine performances across the board, especially Phillipe did surprise me. And Cranston automatically makes shit better. Science and Methamatics!

And now I want a spin off where asshole McConaughey and Breaking Bads Saul start up a law firm together. Emmys galore!

Better Cage than Machine, Matt.

Nah, I've always poked around the dark side every once in awhile (comes from my days as a horror geek, and hanging with some folks of questionable moral values in college). Can't linger on that shit for long, though, as it'll fuck ya up.

[Matt]

Loved that film. I hope that it becomes a franchise for McConoughey and company.

[Captain Russ]

Better Cage than Machine.

Always take the third option: Stormare.

[Jan]

Loved that film. I hope that it becomes a franchise for McConoughey and company.

I know it´s based on a Connelly book but I wasn´t aware that it is a series? This would definitely be a perfect vehicle for McConaghey (damn you spelling!). And more of those little thrillers in this sandbox are more than fine for me.

[Timothy225]

Dino Velvet for the win! I like the cut of your jib, lad!

[Matt]

Jan: if memory serves, the fifth book in the Mickey Haller series just came out in hardback.

[Jan]

Yeah, a cursory Wiki-search reveals that the fourth (called Fifth Witness) was just released. And apparently the main character Haller is the fictional half-brother of Connellys Harry Bosch. Mind - blown up like a car by Bay.

Connelly, I guess I have to go deeper!

DUE DATE- How does Todd Phillips have a career? This is a serious question.
