Doc Of The Dead (2014)

What a piece of shit this is! Doc Of The Dead is supposed to be an in depth documentary on zombie films and the zombie obsessed phenomena that has taken over America.

 The lame-brains behind this crap-fest attempts to go back in history and look at the origins of the zombie film. Well they do go back and look at stuff like White Zombie and even a bit of the 50's stuff like Invisible Invaders then of course it brings us to the George A. Romero flesh eating zombies of modern day. What it fails to do is mention any of the rare cult films in the genre. No mention of people like Lucio Fulci or the Tombs Of The Blind Dead or Let Sleeping Corpses Lie. Instead it sticks with the oh so familiar Hollywood zombie films that the teens at the local mall probably have saved on their cellphones and the retarded zombie-loving youth who go on zombie-walks and do zombie car washes. God help us! As if this wasn't all bad enough Doc Of The Dead is jam packed with the worst music I have ever heard in my life. We get a bunch of shitty songs and really awful comedy segments with typical zombie film cliches. How about you show some cool scenes from the few good zombie films there are out there?

Personally I think the zombie genre as a whole is complete shit. Of course there are some great movies in the genre, like Romero's films and some of the splattery 80's stuff like Re-Animator but no other genre has ever spawned so much crap. Any dick-head with a camera chooses to make a zombie flick as their first feature. All they need is a cellphone and few equally retarded friends. Even the slasher genre has not spawned as much embarrassing shit.

The thing I found most interesting about this thing was that all of the old timers like Romero and Tom Savini are on the same page as me. They don't understand this obsession with zombies and these are the few guys who did it right. What is a zombie fan anyway? Is it someone who likes horror movies? Of course not! They are dumb teeny-boppers who discovered The Walking Dead on television and delved into some of the modern crap like Shaun Of The Dead or worse yet these crappy cgi infested zombie movies that they shit out every other day into our equally crappy multiplexes.

Wash off your zombie makeup, take that dumb bumper sticker off of your car and throw away your zombie survival guide. For anyone who are into the classic zombie films from the good ole days, don't waste your time with Doc Of The Dead.

Beautiful Darling (2010)

This not so amazing documentary takes us thru the short life and times of Andy Warhol "superstar" Candy Darling.

Loosing his/her life at 30 years old to cancer Candy Darling lead an interesting life to say the least. This transgendered barbie doll thought of herself as a sex symbol and a superstar but the reality of Candy Darling's short life was a bit of a downer. Having songs written about her by Lou Reed and being a staple player in Andy Warhol's factory of freaks, Candy lead a fast paced life of sex, drugs and what she thought was stardom. In the end she left this world a cult icon at most.

The documentary itself is average to say the least. The most interesting parts include interviews Warhol himself and Paul Morrissey, director of cult classics such as Andy Warhol's Frankenstein, Andy Warhol's Bad and many more. We also have interviews with punk rock legend Jane County and John Waters.

I suppose the biggest fan base for this movie would be drag queens and Warhol fanatics. For me personally the life of Candy Darling is not quite interesting enough for a full length documentary. However if you are really into chicks with dicks and Andy's speed-freaks then this one might be worth looking at. Look for a really cool scene at the factory with Dennis Hopper.

Cropsey (2009)

Around my parts in Long Island there is a right of passage that all teenagers must go thru to prove they are tough. It involves going to Kings Park abandoned insane asylum and exploring the creepy buildings. Apparently the teens of Staten Island have the same test of manhood. The only difference is that their abandoned loony-bin has a bad-ass urban legend behind it. That is the legend of Cropsey!

 When I learned that the teenagers of Staten Island have a similar favorite pass time I was naturally interested. When I learned of the infamous serial killer "Cropsey" who dwells in the underground tunnels of the abandoned buildings and snatches young kiddies off of the streets to cut them up, I was even more intrigued.

When I hear the name Cropsey the first thing that comes to mind is the gory 80's Slasher film The Burning. Well just like the stalk & slash 80's classic Cropsey is a fictional character. He doesn't exist. However they say all legends have some truth behind it and I guess it has never been more evident then in this case. It just so happens that there was a homeless sadistic killer who lives on the grounds of the psyche buildings and kidnapped young children off of the streets and butchered them. His name is Andre Rand.

This documentary explores the abandoned loony-bins of Staten Island as well as the urban legend of Cropsey. It eventually leads us to Andre Rand and does its best to make sense out of what really went on. Andre Rand was a strange individual who prayed on the mentally retarded. Having an odd connection with the mentally disabled from his younger years when he worked as an orderly in the nut-house, he felt a strange compulsion to kill these children.

The documentary itself is a bit of a mess and like many of the murder victims there is never really any closure. At times it gets confusing and a bit hard to follow. The information is hard to process as the narrator jumps back and forth in year. I wouldn't necessarily say Cropsey is a bad movie but it certainly isn't very good either. The subject matter is interesting enough but the clumsy approach and anticlimactic ending left a bad taste in my mouth.

The film makers behind this thing would go on to do a much better documentary in 2014 called Killer Legends which looks at some of the world most grotesque urban legends and searches for the true events that may have inspired them. I would say skip Cropsey and take a look at the later film for a much more coherent and better made doc.

 

Bettie Page Reveals All (2012)

Okay all you perverts & Bettie lovers, here's the one we've all been waiting for. This is possibly the best Bettie Page movie to date and as the title says Bettie Page does reveal it all.

 Over the years I have collected quite a bit of Bettie Page movies, stag films and documentaries including the infamous Irving Klaw bondage stags and the slightly less raunchy Bunny Yeager stuff but this one offers up the all the grit and dirt and of course plenty of NAKED BETTIE PAGE! Yowza! In this documentary we have an in depth interview with the queen of bondage. She tells her insane life of sexual abuse, partying, modeling and even her decent into madness, where she spent nearly ten years in a mental institution for repeatedly stabbing her landlord. In one of the most memorable moments Bettie recalls an abduction in New York City where six men held her captive and forced her to preform oral sex on each and every one of them. This is pretty intense stuff. I guess its almost reasonable that she went bat-shit crazy and took a knife to someone. She was also molested from childhood by her pedophile father who apparently would have intercourse with chickens and other farm animals.

   While all these filthy stories from the past is interesting and all the thing that makes this one so special, or at least for all us perverts is the previously unseen nudie pictures of Bettie. According to the documentary Bettie Page hated two things. That was cigarettes and alcohol. Only once in her life has she been drunk and she was taken advantage of to the max. When some sleazy cameramen gave Bettie a bit too much booze they convinced her to take the only pictures of her career that she would regret. Bettie Page drunkenly lay spread-eagle and bares it all. If for no other reason this one is worth owning for the stills of Bettie Page and her hairy beaver. Aside from these gloriously trashy pictures Bettie Page Reveals All also sports a huge amount of naked cheese-cake photos and films of the worlds favorite pin-up model.

This is a must see for anyone who loves Bettie! If you don't love Bettie you might be another weirdo who digs farm animals or something. See this... You wont regret it!

From One Second To The Next (2013)

In this short film Werner Herzog takes the boring subject and turns it into a heart wrenching look at reality. This 34 minute documentary looks at people who's lives are forever destroyed due to cellphone texting while driving. I personally can't think of a subject that is more lame. However when Herzog gets behind something it can get a tear from the most jaded of viewers. As we all know the cellphone-youth or internet-babies as I like to call them can not wipe their own ass without the companionship of their cellular device. This one shows them for the scum they truly are. Well okay maybe that wasn't Herzog's exact message but thats how I see it.

Only worth looking at for Herzog completists. Warning this one plays like an afternoon television  tearjerker for bleeding-heart housewives.

Into The Abyss (2011)

Werner Herzog takes a look at Michael Perry on Death Row in Texas. It also looks at Perry's accomplices and the victims families. In true Herzog fashion this downbeat documentary follows the broken lives of the criminals and the victims with beautiful camera work and gut wrenching interviews.

 Michael Perry is set to die in eight days for the triple murder of an innocent family. In his last days Perry copes with the fact that he will most likely be executed. While Herzog and most others in the film make it clear that they are not in favor of capitol punishment, we do hear from the victims family members who feel justice is being served. Into The Abyss shows us how capital punishment affects everyone involved from the victims to the priest and even the executioners.

Aside from the heavy capital punishment theme that runs through most of the movie, we get the whole back story on the crimes committed and even the actual crime scene videos are displayed for us. After Perry and his friends executed a family for nothing more then a car that they wanted to steal, they got into a bloody shootout with Texas police. The apprehension scene was something out of a Bonnie & Clyde movie. Cars and buildings filled with bullet holes, a police officer run over by a car and of course the criminals took many bullets themselves. Its just amazing they survived the shootout.

This one is a good watch for anyone who is into true crime and can stand the dark side of human nature. Its also got that Herzogian artsy flow to it but I warn you, Into The Abyss is a sad movie and it packs an emotional punch. Bring your tissues.

Cinemania (2002)

This interesting documentary follows the lives of New York City's cine-maniacs. With a compulsion to see as many films as possible on the big screen every day, it is hard to find time for work, family, friends and even cleaning ones house.

Some of the people in the film see up to six movies a day in the theater. Always on the run to the next film with no time to even use the bathroom its amazing to see how cinema has affected these people into a neurotic state of living. Everyone in the film is unemployed and living off of disability or some form of service, some have been arrested for their neurotic behavior for violence against annoying theater goers and one man in particular even chooses a diet that constipates him. I mean who wants to leave a movie to take a dump anyway? One woman has gone to see a movie every day for over 50 years and saved every stub for every movie she has been too. She was banned from one particular theater for strangling a employee who ripped her stub in half. While most of the people in this film are into movies that I couldn't give a shit about their lives are interesting none the less. This is with the exception of my favorite guy Harvey. Harvey will go and see anything. He digs 50's monster movies and trashy films from the 70's. I would like to go to a movie with him and watch something. He also knows the runtime to every film he has ever seen and thats just nutty.

The thing I found most interesting about these people is that almost all of them are against seeing a movie in any other format then film. They do not watch VHS or DVD. Its strictly film screenings. While I do understand this I find it amazing that they don't feel the need to own copies of their favorite movies and I can't help but wonder what they are doing now considering almost all theaters have transferred over to digital. I feel their pain.

 

Serial Killers (1994)

This tape is a bit of a mystery. I picked it up in the dollar bin at the local video store not really expecting much. When it turned out to be a decent documentary I was honestly surprised. However I wasn't really able to find any information on this thing at all. In fact I'm not even sure it was actually made in 1994. I'm just going by the copyright on the back of the tape and we all know that really doesn't mean shit.The documentary itself has no credits, so it offers no clues to the writer, director or narrator. On the other hand this generically titled VHS isn't exactly worth making a life time search to find its origins.

Aside from being a total mystery this has to be the fastest paced documentary ever made and thats what I liked about it. It opens up with Charles Starkweather and zips forward with a very fast speaking narrator. Before you can say "sociopath" we are on to the Green River Killer. This one covers so many of America's most infamous serial killers, one at a time. We get a bit of back story on each of the psychos and then of course a lesson on the true crimes they have committed. Being a bit of a serial killer buff I tended to fill in the blanks on my own because at times this movie is to fast for its own good. By the time it got to Edmond Kemper, I felt that it only covered the loony for about five minutes. How can you only spend 5 min. on a guy like Ed Kemper? There is so much to say about him. Anyway this was a pretty good find considering it was only a buck. Worth a watch for serial killer and true crime buffs just for the fun speed of it all but don't expect to learn anything new. It really keeps each maniac pretty brief. On the other hand if you don't know much about these people it would probably serve as a great introduction to each of them.

Hey Is Dee Dee Home (2002)

Hey! Is Dee Dee Home? was never intended to be a feature film. The director Lech Kowalski who was responsible for punk cult classics such as D.O.A. and Story Of A Junkie was finishing up his Johnny Thunders documentary, Born To Lose : The Last Rock & Roll Movie when he realized he had enough Dee Dee Ramone interview footage for a 64 minute film.

 Well thats exactly what you get with this one. Left over scraps from another film, which tells the life story of Dee Dee Ramone. Personally I always enjoyed Dee Dee Ramone interviews. I find the punk rock burn-out to be extremely interesting and entertaining, so this movie is actually pretty cool for a guy like me. However, I could see how most people would really not be into this thing... even Ramones fans. During the filming of this Dee Dee was apparently clean from heroin. He spends most of the films running time talking about his life long struggle with the drug and the insanity that it has brought to his life. The rest of the interviews are pretty much about Johnny Thunders, which makes sense because the footage was of course taken for a Thunders documentary. Dee Dee would die of a heroin overdose a year or two after these interviews and Lech Kowalski cashed in on the punk icons death by releasing the footage as a feature.

The thing that I find most interesting about this movie is that it really shows how strange Dee Dee is. I mean we all know hes weird but this movie places us in a room with him for just over an hour and he almost seems insane. First off he looks like Christopher Lloyd here, with a shaved head and his big ears. He spends much of the movie talking about his tattoos and scars but then he gets real weird and starts talking about haunted apartments and Satan and stuff like that. Its a weird movie about a weird guy. Probably not a very big fan base for this one. I would only recommend it to people who are really interested in Dee Dee Ramone.

  

Video Nasties : The Definitive Guide (2010)

Pretty great documentary here on the Video Nasties, UK ban list. However the DVD is even better then the actual movie. The Sevrin 3 disc set comes complete with of course the 73 minute documentary but then two extra discs of trailers for every movie on the Video Nasties list. Not only do we get the trailer but a short spoken review on each of the films. Needless to say it takes quite a long time to get through all of the material on this set.

Video Nasties : The Definitive Guide is hosted by a British hottie named Emily Booth who has a couple of credits to her name, none of which I ever really want to see. Pretty much all of it looks like modern digitalized shit. Anyway aside from the sexy brunette Emily Booth we have lots of informative British folk shedding lite on what it was like to be an unfortunate victim of the UK censors. The documentary sports interviews with the fascist scum who helped ban the nasty horror gems as well as the genre fans who defend the films. Shit-Bag Mary Whitehouse and her moronic Christian drones appear in old stock footage shedding their bullshit views on the video tapes. Its pretty funny to watch these human rectum's speak now-a-days. They just look like fools.

  There really isn't anything that this movie leaves out. They take a subject that isn't all that vast in the first place and cover just about ever square inch of it. For this reason I find it strange that they made a sequel to this movie. I can't fathom what they possibly left out of the first film. Either way I will eventually get around to watching the sequel, if for nothing else, the trailers! Personally having a life long obsession with trashy trailers I put this 3 disc set in the ranks of trailer compilations like Mad Rons Prevues From Hell  and Grindhouse Horrors this thing sports close to 80 trailers. Woo-Fucking-Hoo!

I would recommend the Definitive Guide to anyone who is interested in collecting the Video Nasties tapes or just interested in the subject and more so anyone who really digs horror and exploitation trailers. There are so many good ones on here. There were even a few British trailers that I have never seen before including one or two rare English television spots. Check this one out and lose your moral fiber for good. That is of course if you horror-loving, sickos have an morality left to lose. To avoid fainting. Keep repeating, It's only a movie... Only a movie...

Graphic Sexual Horror (2009)

A friend of mine recently brought this warped documentary to an all night festival of cult film debauchery and I am glad he did because I probably would have never sought this movie out on my own.

Graphic Sexual Horror takes a look into the sick and deranged world of insex.com a brutal S&M website that was pulled by the government for reasons that don't make much sense. As usual Big Brother has the last word as they poke their nose into so called free Americans business.

I am not defending the creators of insex.com or anybody who worked for the website because I believe they are all a bunch of depraved degenerates with a very strange idea of what is sexy. I just don't think that Uncle Sam should be able to tell me what I am allowed to spank one to. Oh and speaking of spankings, there is plenty of that to go around. Women are basically stripped, bound and tortured for sometimes six hours at a time. Of course they were payed with large sums of money and this of course makes it all okay. Right?

The founder of insex.com is nothing more then a deranged pervert, living out his morbid sexual fantasies and throwing lots of money around. He openly admits that he has been inspired by the "work" of serial killers and it seems obvious that if this man did not have the chance to live out these disgusting role playing fantasies that he would probably be tyingng girls up in his basements and torturing them to death.

Personally I find these images to be anything but sexy and I don't really understand what happens to a person to make them become so demented that the only way they can get their rocks off is to put a girl in a cage and drop her in a tank of water filled with leeches. Well I guess everyone has the right to live their own life and if these people are all consenting adults it is really their own business. Still the truth is that most of the girls who offer up interviews for the documentary admit that they are scared for life and they will never get over the tortures of insex.com. I personally do not see these girls as strong individuals. I see them as weak, money hungry prostitutes who will let me do anything I want to them for a buck. If they had a soul it would have been sold.

Check this one out for a look into a sick world that most people would rather ignore.

Inside Deep Throat (2005)

This documentary takes a look Inside Deep Throat, "The most profitable film of all time" and the scandal that followed.

Ground breaking director Gerard Damiano would go on to do a whole slew of XXX porno movies in the 70's and 80's. He is considered to be amongst the most artistic and talented directors in the adult industry. Known for legendary greats such as The Devil In Miss Jones and Odyssey. Deep Throat is the one that started it all. "Shot for $25,000 and grossing somewhere over six million" and the cast and crew would leave the film virtually penny less. There is probably no other film in history that suffered a tragedy as great as Deep Throat. From the legal end to the involvement of organized crime. Inside Deep Throat takes us through the films legacy up until today.

Hollywood favorites such as Jack Nicholson and cult icons such as John Watters and Harry Reems as well as court attorney's, right down to projectionists help share some light on Deep Throat and its affects on society.

For many, Deep Throat was a symbol of freedom. A last staple in the sexual revolution and for others it was pure smut and was used as an example of moral decay in order for the politicians to censor Americans and keep adult material off of the streets. With every police raid and court trial the film grew stronger and would make that much more money in another city. Actor Harry Reems faced up to five years imprisonment for nothing more then acting in the movie. Ignorant women's activist groups fought the film, the church fought the film and middle class Americans fought to have the right to see it. This amazing documentary serves as a great time capsule to a time when the fight for artistic freedom could very well put you behind bars or even in the ground.

Inside Deep Throat is the perfect watch for anyone who holds the golden age of porn close to their immoral little hearts.

Faces Of Death V (1995)

If you are familiar with the Faces Of Death series and have seen FOD 1 through 4 there is absolutely no reason to watch this one. FOD V is no more then a badly put together compilation of the four films. The narration is constantly changing and it doesn't match or flow properly.

The Faces Of Death crew have done this before when they released The Worst Of Faces Of Death which was a composit of 1-3. Its as if someone said Hey, I know. Why don't we just keep making shitty tapes of previous footage so we never have to shoot anything again and we can still get a check.

FOD 5 has the infamous monkey brains scene and the electric chair execution from the original FOD. It takes a lot of the slaughter house footage from Faces Of Death II. We get to see the deadly rattle snake bite again from FOD 3 but most of the footage is taken from Faces Of Death IV. The mental hospital murder, the giant radioactive leech, the Satanic decapitations and the mutilated puppy will pop up again. This makes me never want to see part 6 which I believe is just another mix and match pile of shit.

Stick with 1-4 and avoid this turd.

Faces Of Death IV (1990)

I been watching a lot of these Faces Of Death movies and pretty much shitting on them with the exception of the original in all of my reviews but I have to admit I kind of liked F.O.D. 4. It is just the same old rehash from previous F.O.D. movies and the reenactments is just as bad if not worse then Faces Of Death III but there were certain elements which give the 4th movie some replay value.

The first redeeming value that is noticed is probably the slick narration from the way over the top and as bad as they come actor James B. Schwartz who plays Dr. Louis Flellis who is supposed to be continuing the studies of death from Dr. Francis B. Gross who we all know and love from the first film. Well even if James B. Schwartz holds the record for worlds worst actor he is at least given good lines to read. Underground hip hop character Necro must have felt the genius of the narration within F.O.D. 4 because he uses a large amount of it on his Gory Days record for the song World Gone Mad. "We are living in a world gone mad. A crazy world. A world where death is a way of life. Every day we read of atrocities that numb our brain, but I believe to deny the insanity or flee from it is to submit to it and be at the mercy of it. One must study death in order to appreciate life. Come with me as we descend into a world gone mad." Pretty nifty huh? Necro would take more from the narration through out the film. Aside from the witty narration the reenactments are very unbalanced. While obviously fake due to camera angles and such some of the scenes are disturbingly graphic in a some what realistic manner while others are so ridiculous that you have to laugh. For instance the giant, radioactive leech which attaches itself to a swimming woman seems like it should have been in a 50's monster movie or something. What is this Attack Of The Giant Leeches or Faces Of Death? Then we get an incredibly fake scene where a Vietnamese family cuts up a puppy and cooks it up for some chow. A group of dumb drunken 80's morons run a girl over with a speedboat and take a little bit to much off the top of that mullet. Then there is a failed bungee rope stunt.  F.O.D. 4 sports an awesome scene near the very end. It doesn't look real by any sense of the world but I can see it being used in a Jim Van Bebber (Deadbeat At Dawn) movie or something. A group of Satanists are arrested and during the bust the FBI... and we know its the FBI because they are wearing blue jackets that say "FBI" on the back, find a mans severed head in a box which is supposed to be sent out to fellow Satanists. The FBI agents also find a snuff flick that the cultists made. They stick a knife in a mans face and the gore effects look like something out of a Lucio Fulci flick. Pretty bad-ass! The satanic climax makes F.O.D. 4 well worth the watch. I just wish they could have used some of these special effects in a real movie instead of a bad excuse for a mondo flick. Some of the other treats that F.O.D. 4 has to offer is a magician who has his achy-breaky skull smashed open in a magic trick gone wrong, a muscle-head who allows his friends to drive a pick-up truck over his mid torso, political war crimes and plenty more.

F.O.D. 4 also offers up some anti vegetarian nonsense as if the viewers are really concerned with the social politics of a Faces Of Death writer. Totally ridiculous! I knew sooner or later I would start laughing at these movies.

Hollywood Babylon (1972)

This 70's softcore smut poses as a documentary on famous Hollywood scandals in the 1920's. The basis is taken from Kenneth Anger's infamous book of the same title but I'm pretty sure this was largely inspired by the 1970 highly controversial film Hollywood Blue which showed political and Hollyood scandals alike.

About half of the film is ancient archival stock footage from the 20's showing the actual stars. The other half is trashy reenactments of the supposed scandals that went down. This of course is just an excuse to show lots of full frontal male and female nudity.

Porno star Uschi Digard shows up for some titty action but there is really nothing to save this movie from being a boring drooler. The best scene is a reenactment of Fatty Arbuckle's scandal but of course this is fictionalized as is most of the movie. Fatty is hosting his drunken house party and takes a girl back to his room where he rams a wine bottle in places where it doesn't belong. The girl dies seconds later and Fatty is busted wearing nothing but his pajama pants.

We also get drug use, some lesbian action, a nymphomaniac who takes on the whole football team in a sleazy gang bang. We also have a sadistic, perverted film director who enjoys filming orgies and then whipping his cast members. There is a pedophile who marries a 15 year old. Oral sex, murder and it is all done in sheer bad taste.

This one offers nothing new. Another tit flick from the golden age of trashy cinema. I would assume that Hollywood Blue is the better watch even though I am yet to see it. Stay away from this one unless you are a Ushi Digard fanatic or a huge Kenneth Anger fan. Even so I should warn you to be prepared to sleep it off.

Faces Of Death III (1985)

Well these Faces Of Death movies just get worse and worse don't they? The first film is good mondo fun. Faces Of Death part 2 was even more disturbing with nastier and more gruesome death on display. This one is just a straight up piece of shit with almost every single scene in the movie being a badly done reenactment of real scenarios involving death.

Dr. Francis B. Gross takes us through yet another look at death but the stylish elements from the first film are completely absent this time around. Director John Alan Schwartz has a cameo in F.O.D. 3. He plays a serial rapist and murderer on trial for video taping the sexual abuse and killing of a young Asian woman. By this time the series has become redundant and even the narration is totally repetitive. If I keep "exploring the many Faces Of Death" it is going to be the death of me.

With nothing new to offer F.O.D. 3 gives reenactments of suicide, deadly rattle snake bites, a skid row serial killer who dumps the lifeless bums bodies in dumpsters and some violent p.c.p. addicts. It seems the only real footage here is animal murder and if that is your thing you might as well join some dumb animals rights group and watch Kentucky Fried Chicken videos all day.

I'm pretty sure F.O.D. stands for fuck off and die..

The Worst Of Faces Of Death (1987)

I recently picked up Faces Of Death 1-5 plus a documentary called Faces Of Death Fact Or Fiction and this title. I some what reluctantly have been forcing myself to watch em all in chronological order. This one might be the most pathetic of the lot.

The title claims it to be "The Worst" Of Faces Of Death and I just might agree for the fact that is nothing more then a composit of Faces Of Death 1, 2 and 3. They cut together what they felt is the most gruesome moments from the three films and offer up this compilation of blood, guts and gore.

As the viewer there is nothing like taking the easy way out of things. We should all have to endure the equal amount of torture by sitting through the full films. As a film maker this video is nothing more then another marketing and money making scheme. There is nothing more to say about this so called movie with the exception of the opening where we are told that Dr. Gross is now dead himself and that his experiments and studies are still being examined for future Faces Of Death movies.

For a better time check out Mondo Cane or Africa Addio. Or just stick with the original Faces Of Death. That one at least got a theatrical run, unlike this deserved straight to video shit.
