The moment children and then babies where mentioned, it was a sign that this is a much deeper hole. The initial stages where women and teens where mentioned was just the surface of true evil that lies within.
Where at the stage where we entered the unthinkable zone. Somewhere where the human part of a human doesn’t matter and where children and even babies are being dragged down.
Wait I thought to be a true “snuff film” it had to be like an actual scripted narrative film with like “filmmakers” wherein someone is murdered on screen for real, not just home murder movies, am I wrong? If any recorded murder counts then of course there’s snuff films, 3 guys 1 hammer comes to mind, BTK, etc, but I thought it had to be like a proper movie.
If I’m right then this is more of a home movie/blackmail material situation, I don’t think they have like a secret Woody Allen film (though nothing is impossible, he’s in the files, they could.)
A movie in a purported genre of movies in which an actor is actually murdered or commits suicide
A film that shows, or purports to show, the actual deliberate killing of one of the performers.
Sorry but no, that is the misconception I’m speaking of. Back when this was originally posted months ago it prompted me to look it up, finding the definition, which quite clearly through the use of the words “actor” and “performers” does differentiate it from simple videos of death/murder to mean a scripted work that contains a death/murder. Which makes more sense in the “snuff films are a myth” context, because quite clearly “videos of death” are verifiably real, which would put that entire debate to rest.
Slang. a pornographic film that shows an actual murder of one of the performers, as at the end of a sadistic act.
splatter film (a film containing many scenes of violent and gruesome murders.)
It just narrows it further, claiming it has to be pornographic, or multiple murders, or collections like faces of death at the most generous interpretation.
I was happy believing snuff movies were a myth, or extremely rare.
Now I need these bastards dead (extremely painfully if possible, but I’ll take anything that removes them from society).
I already did, of course, but now it’s even more urgent.

No. The term applies to any video footage of somebody actually dying, as opposed to a film where the death is staged.

Dictionary.com disagrees.
Edit: terms and words have multiple definitions, and change over time.
such is the nature of linguistic constructs
Does it though?
