Blue Underground just sent over the specs and artwork for their upcoming release of the hilariously controversial flick Snuff and we’ve got the skinny! Guess what? There are actually extras this time!
Look for the Blu-ray and DVD in stores on October 22nd. For those of you who don’t know, Snuff was originally called Slaughter – a lousy film from husband/wife filmmaker team Michael and Roberta Findlay. When Slaughter‘s producers deemed it unreleasable, they shelved it while searching for a way to recoup costs. Finally, producer Allan Shackleton decided to cut the film’s ending off and replace it with a “real” sequence of an actress being brutally murdered behind the scenes. Hence, Snuff.
Synopsis
Deep in South America, a Manson-like cult leader named Satan cavorts with his bevy of beautiful biker-chick followers while compelling them to kill in his name. When sexy American actress Terry London arrives with producer Max Marsh to shoot a new movie there, the creepy cult targets her and her friends with plans of murder, mayhem and the grisly sacrifice of her unborn baby. Is the final bloody massacre only a movie? Or is it the shocking footage of an actual murder committed before the camera?
Originally lensed as THE SLAUGHTER by notorious filmmakers Michael and Roberta Findlay (SHRIEK OF THE MUTILATED, TAKE ME NAKED), the movie sat on the shelf for five years until enterprising producer/distributor Allan Shackleton devised a controversial new ending and released it as SNUFF. Freshly transferred in High Definition from one of the only remaining prints, now the fascinating true story behind this infamous piece of trash cinema can finally be told… by those who survived!
