THE TUMBNAIL WAS BLURRED. Bro now I have to fucking watch this.

Yoko Ono's singing is the perfect terror scream for a horror movie.

I really dig these exposè videos on B list horror movies. Thanks a million bud, keep on keepin' on.

Everyone's blood in this movie seems to have the same consistency and appearance of a dipping sauce for hot wings.

being argentinian and recognizing even slight details about the scenery is wild

I feel like because people had smaller TVs back then and HD wasn't even a thing, people would be more inclined to believe this stuff purely because they couldn't see what was happening on the screen as well as we can today. All they'd see is what looks an awful lot like someone committing a crime but not much more than that. Now, for theatrical release it might be more obvious with a bigger picture, but I'd assume most people would see it at home on a rented vhs tape or something. I don't know. But I can see some reasons why people might fall for it under the unique circumstances of the time

"He was decapitated in a helicopter accident." Well that is an ending I did not see coming.

I read about this movie years ago when I was getting into the seedier side of horror. I never tracked it down because it sounded really dumb, thanks for boiling it down to 15 minutes so I can confirm it was indeed really dumb.

"WCW style knock-off Born To Be Wild." Exquisite lol

In the 90's I had a friend who told me about a movie they saw where after the movie ended there was scene where a real woman was killed. My friend believed this to be a real killing, she was terrified just talking about it to the point that I always wanted to know what movie it was. In the mid 2000's thanks to the internet I randomly remembered this movie and searched for it. I found it pretty quickly and couldn't believe that anyone would think this was real. It's crazy how different things were in the 70's. It's hard now with special effects that are incredibly realistic to understand that people didn't know what a murder looked like, so if you make this appear like it's true, people will believe you. Glad you covered this. Great video.

God, I remember this film. Back when VHS recorders took off, a friend of the family opened a video library, and we'd end up renting tons of films from them. They really went into it heavily and got loads of niche films. Then this film popped up, along with a few others and yes, the hype and stufff went with it. As soon as I got it home, I was still believing it, but it only took a few minutes of the first atrocity before you could easily see this was absolute bullshit. I get how many like myself would tentatively be suckered in by hype, especially as back then there was NO media coverage of stuff like this, and of course the distribution was limited, lending to the myth. But anyone who viewed it would quickly see how shit it was when you can't even get fake blood the right colour or texture. Let alone anything else. The only thing that wasn't dull about this film was the end scene which was a murder that was pretty innovative, though still bullshit.

I just noticed you finally got 1m subscribers. I found you when you have like 200k I think. And your channel helped me with my withdrawal period after a 12 year drug addiction. I basically only heard your channel and one other youtuber for the first 90 days of getting clean. Thank you Justin for being a secretly helping hand during that dark time. Seriously. I'm proud of you man.

I don't know why I laughed so much after you said "where she takes a nap after doing some cocaine."

I love the fact that they used red paint as blood lmao. I don't understand how people thought stuff like this was actually real. Then again maybe I've just watched too many horror movies and gore videos.

The turtle just basically said “you’re not turtle-y enough for the turtle club”

I am from Argentina and never knew about this movie. Those vintage movies have a huge mystic, even if the horror is on the comedy side. There is a late 70s italian horror movie called Buio Omega (or beyond the darkness) with pretty realistic and well done gore scenes for it's time, nice horror film

The white guy doing the Spanish accent is the greatest thing ever done in a film. I haven't laughed that hard in years. ❤😂😂

I first heard about this movie from the Cinema Snob years ago. The same filmmakers also made Shriek of the Mutilated which I can only describe as "What if M. Night Shyamalan made a Yeti movie".

I think a lot of the "oh my god it's real!" came from people not used to gore films who simply didn't look at the screen during the dismemberment-scene at the end. Being too shocked to visually confirm what they think is going on, their mind pieced together a version that looks way more realistic than was shown in the movie. Which is a bit like how audiences swear there is a lot of explicit gore in Texas Chainsaw Massacre and the infamous shower scene in Psycho where people were so certain that Hitchcock had shown the knife stabbing the naked breast, when no actual knife penetrating skin action was even filmed. Stories like that does feed into the belief that "what you don't see is much scarier than what can be shown". But it also means that for people who just looks at the images as they are... the result is a much tamer reaction. And of course there's also the infamous story where Charlie Sheen called the FBI when he saw the second installment of The Guinea Pig films. And the filmmakers just laughed and sent them a copy of the making of video clearly showing the prostetics and fakery.

Well, we definitely need to tackle the infamous VHS nasty, Faces Of Death next. Although I feel that this one was by far the more ridiculous choice.

Honey doesn’t even work anymore. They never find discounts for everything and anything I want to purchase.

I love how you use the shop's music from River City Ransom during your sponsor ads, truly a man of good taste, Justin.

I had no idea that this movie had such a history! I had to watch this movie when I was doing quality control for VOD stuff. I just thought of it as another grindhouse film. Oddly enough, we had to reject from going to broadcast... because it didn't have any credits. We had to get special permission from the distributor, Blue Underground, to confirm it was intentional to "mimic a real snuff film" and was therefore allowed. I never would have thought people thought this was real.

I genuinely really enjoy this content.

"God is not here today, sir" The curt response killed me deader than the woman in the film.

Man I remember this was one of the really old cinema snob reviews. Exploitation movie reviews were so satisfying to watch.

I love getting notifications from you dude, you're one of the most real people on this platform and I fucking hang off your every word even when I'm multi tasking. Thank you for every rabbit hole you've shared with us ☆

Yep pretty cool. The final shot was interesting. You could see how they put the actors hand through the bed. The guy "cuts " the arm, and her hand still moves. That's great work

9:44 Well... as an Argentinian, I can say that IS a rich people activity here. Former president Menem was pretty acquainted with that.

Something interesting about the South America thing. Here in Colombia there is an Urban Legend about a theater where supposedly Snuff films were made but was never prooved. The rumors started around the same dates you mentioned in the video (It was called the Faenza theater)

Genuinely surprises me how there were grown ass adults who still couldn't distinguish reality from fiction

This video's ending took direct inspiration from the movie ending...with a death scene we didn't see coming

You should cover the Faces of Death movies and how they faked most of the footage and played it off as real

Ayo why the thumbnail blurred lol

You should do a video on who won the "Be in my Nightmare sweepstakes" it was a contest to promote Nightmare on elm Street part 3, the winner would get a chance to have a walk on role for part 4, but no one seems to know who won, so that should be a future video.

I always love your use of the zombies ate my neighbours soundtrack... it's just (chefs kiss).

Thank you, Man. You have no idea how much you help, Whang. I can't believe I'm gonna air this, but I was in a bad bad place a while back, (honestly I still am, but NOTHING like that day.) But after trying everything to try to settle my anxiety. I was 3 weeks deep into Covid, also. I just wanted it over. Day on little to no sleep really didn't help either. It got bad. But I watched you play that PS1 haunted disc. And man, you walking that water and doing all those errands to get the steam room started, with the ambient sounds and it , well man. It saved me. Thank you man. You should know that it's hard to help someone that far gone and you did. I'm nobody, and never gonna be anything of real worth. But my cats love me and they still have a dad thanks to you. My 🐱🐈‍⬛🐈 ❤ Whang! - BE GOOD, SIR.

You just saved me from a mini downward spiral, thank you for uploading just at the right time.

I bought this back in the day (roughly 18 or so years ago) in the city of Melbourne, Australia at a store called Peril Underground. The cover looked like a crumpled paper bag with no film rating on the front or back, and even the clerk tried to convince me it was legit. I bought it for $80 on DVD when they were still somewhat new-ish. I went home immediately and watched it. I knew straight away that it was terribly fake and i'd been beyond ripped off. I went back to the store and asked for a refund. The dude behind the counter was shocked, but obliged - i bought some cool goth gear, because i was one of those teens back then. When i look back on this situation and tell others about it, they dumbfounded that I didn't have access to the internet, and didn't own much tech at all, but i'd just tell them that it was all about exploration, and trial and error back then. I rented a ton of movies, drank a shitload of goon bags in the city, saw alot of shit. Good times. By the way, the massive brawl at the 3 palms of the goths vs [can't remember if it was blacks or wogs] was hilariously golden when it turned out the goths won over the territory.

Currently at work on break really wanna watch this, but I'll save it for when I'm home, having a bath and beer and then it will have my undivided attention!

lately I haven't really felt like watching anything, even my comfort vids but i'm always in the mood for whang

"I am who am" the most profound line I've ever heard in a movie.

Snuff’ said

For me, the video that I thought I could go to jail for watching back in the 80's was the Shocking Asia series. Like, it's just a found footage reel, it doesn't even try to maintain any sort of narrative.

"I wish I knew what that turtle said because it had to be a banger" I'm fucking dead

Lmao, I guess this falls into the category "Schrödinger’s movies" - movies so goddamn terrible that they are somehow simultaneously abysmal and amazing at the same time.

I always find Brian Wilson's relationship to be Manson to be facinating like one of those strange but true stories

Speaking of fake "Snuff", ever thought about covering the Guinea Pig films? They're the ones that Charlie Sheen watched and thought they were real, so he called the FBI

I just woke up and seeing this in my notifications is what got me to get out of bed. I saw the header and was about to say "Hold my beer, man. I got you on this one. Gather round, Whanglings, let me tell you about this hot mess." but I'm glad you talked about the production, the staged protests, and the critical reception. There's so many layers to this one that stuff could have gotten overlooked. The 70s were wild, man. The weird exploitation (and roughie) films, the artsy porn films, the shock comedies...it's something that could have only existed in this narrow window of time. If it wasn't too risky to possibly review, I'd love to see what he thinks about Hardgore (1976), where a nymphomaniac goes to rehab for her obsessions and finds herself in a cult.

I can’t help but think of manhunt when ever I hear about snuff films

Have you seen the Japanese films known as *"Guinea Pig"* also realistic depictions of murder happening before you, Charlie Sheen saw this movie and thought it was a legitimate snuff film and called as a site put it "The Feds". You should make a video about it, if you haven't already that is. Also if you want an interesting Italian Horror movie watch *"Cemetery Man"* or in Italian *"Dellamorte Dellamore"* that is a pretty kickass movie and the ending though weird and out of the blue is really well done.

What I learned: Altered Beast was not in fact Greek themed. It was actually yet another form of media in the New Jersey cinematic universe. Like that Beware Children bullshit and Friday the 13th.

This movie had like 7 fucking sub-plots I can’t keep track of any of it

Honestly this video was pretty interesting,and I like it for that.

I've been looking everywhere for the midi sounding version of the shining he puts near the toe stabbing scene. Where the hell does it come from? JonTron used it too.

Jesus Christ, that Hammer-colored blood. Were people in the 70's so blitzed out of their minds that they forgot what color human blood is?

Yes! Another whang video! I've been waiting for this

This is the most ridiculous and hilarious video and video recap I think you've done yet. I think I actually saw the shootout scene (after the mom and her daughter get killed) on TV when I was a kid and changed the channel when that part was over because of the bad acting.

I love how the guy who published the movie literally made it seem like it was bad on purpose just to make people like it and people still didn't

I think I just had an acid fueled fever dream that turned into a Whang video

Real talk my mom told me as a kid that her uncles had purchased some vhs films from a local market and she said they were real snuff films that somehow got imported into the US granted my moms side thought they were just buying movies but I do believe her.

“God is not here today, sir” fucking killed me

This morning just became so much better. What a way to start the day!

Honestly cannibal Holocaust is the only film that i could believe that really had the audience believing it's real due to how great the director did and even to make the actors sign that they would basically stay hidden to make people believe it even more other than that i can't believe some people believe these films are real LoL

I saw this in a Times Square theater in 77 and ppl were running out of theater. It looked wild on a big screen

Yes! You're finally at 1mil haha! I've been subbed for a while now I was waiting for that. Always thought to myself "how does this guy not have 1mil subs?"

Yet another Justin Whang video that I clicked on thinking I will probably regret clicking on by the end.

Going to bed, and suddenly getting absolutely FURIOUS that one of your favorite creators on KZfaq makes a video at 1:11am local fime, and you're forced to stay up later >:(

love how both her arm and her finger are completely hollow when cut off

lol the music track in the background from "zombies ate my neighbors" brought back some memories for me!

Oh hell yeah I just got really baked and now this drops Perfect timing

Manson claimed they killed hundreds of people , any time he told authorities where to find bodies none were found , he was likely just trolling them.

On another note, if there ever was a KZfaqr house party, project x style, you know Whang would be there.

I’ll admit that I’ve heard of the movie Snuff, but I’ve never actually seen it

Speaking of old italian horror films anyone remember 'Rats: Night of Terror'

🤣 @ 8:59 when you said a "costumed horse" I literally went back 10 seconds in the video two times to see where there was a literal costumed horse 😂

Death Edit On May 16, 1977, Michael Findlay was killed in a helicopter accident on the roof of the Pan Am Building in New York City. The accident occurred shortly after the 5:33 PM arrival of the New York Airways helicopter from John F. Kennedy Airport. It was in the process of taking on 21 passengers for the return trip when the landing gear failed and the aircraft tipped on its side while the rotors were still running. Findlay and two other passengers in the process of boarding were slashed to death as the spinning rotors detached and disintegrated. Another male passenger died later in hospital. A woman on the street was killed when hit by falling debris.[5][6]

My best friend trying to hype this movie so much I refused to watch it when it came out or ever would have been comedic gold if there was just a camera!

This is very off topic but I think the lamp at 8:04 is made from an artillery shell.

The movie '8mm' with Nicholas Cage, really brought the idea of 'snuff' films in to the mainstream back in the late 90's. I remember being a Junior in high school, watching '8mm' in my parents basement with my then girlfriend. We could barely even focus on the movie because due to her monthly cycle being delayed, we thought she was pregnant. I apologize for that random info but it's just a significant memory from my teenage years.

I recommend going through the Mondo movie iceberg everything from shockumentaries to real disturbing moments caught on tape.

I fell for the movie The Poughkeepsie tapes. It's a mockumentary with "real" tapes from a serial killer. I was like 14 when i saw it

"A HOT BABE" oh wang, please never change

this & faces of death were popular in the family owned small VHS stores

Congratulations on 1 mil subs

"While looking for funding for a 3D camera he invented, he was decapitated in a helicopter accident." Guess he was too "a head" of his time.

WTF Whang, where's the cool monitors and little pixelated guys moving in the background? I miss those please put those back.

Every time one of whangs videos drop i got to just strap in and bern one because it's about to be a bumpy ass ride

Actual real life snuff videos exist on Reddit of all places.

Justin Whang: Let's talk about this fabricated Snuff film meant to capitalize on the sensationalized craze of on-film murder. [Zany Earthbound music.]

Whang is the new and improved James Rofle. I come here for my horror movie trivia now.

Congrats on 1 millions subs by the way. You deserve it.

I don’t get all the critics ofcourse this is real, that’s just how blood looked like in the 70’s

Johnny Knoxville was actually the one that had them do paper cuts in between his fingers and toes.

I remember when I first watched cannibal Holocaust being super afraid that I watched some forbidden thing and wondering if I should call the cops or something 😂😂😂

People also believed the marketing around Faces Of Death, Cannibal Holocaust and Cannibal Ferox - hey, if it sells, it sells

8:47 classic boludo moment

Just last night I was looking for movies to watch on Tubi and this movie popped up in my recommendations and I almost watched it but decided to go watch Shrek 2 on Netflix instead.

Snuff films..when i here that word the movie "The Stuff" comes in mind now i heard rumors that that movie is in connection with" night of the living dead " i cant find that source again is an interview back then...
