Actual “snuff” films have long been rumored to exist, and Paul von Stoetzel’s documentary Snuff: A Documentary About Killing on Camera sought to answer the question of whether or not they are indeed real.  It’s been out of print for years, but today, thanks to Wild Eye Releasing, it’s now available on both DVD and VOD.  Read on for the details.

From the Press Release:
Wild Eye Releasing has announced the April 21st DVD and VOD release of Snuff: A Documentary About Killing on Camera.  Long out of print and sought after since its initial release, Paul von Stoetzel’s documentary seeks to uncover the “truth” about snuff films and how serial killers and horror classics like Cannibal Holocaust, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre play into the pervasive cultural rumors about these taboo and near-mythical films.

Explore the disturbing urban legend of the “snuff” film, an alleged film where someone is purposely murdered on camera for profit. This compelling documentary features interviews with film professionals, FBI profilers, and academics, who all help examine the myths and evidence of snuff films and their relationship to cult horror movies, serial killers, and pornography in our culture. 

The DVD release of Snuff: A Documentary About Killing on Camera (SRP $12.95) includes a fifth anniversary interview with the director by author/radio host Dave Schrader and the short film “Dinner Date.”
