Snuff Film - Recorded Deaths

Recorded Deaths

Some murderers have recorded their acts on video. Documentary film makers and television news crews have also captured footage of executions or accidental deaths. The resultant footage is not usually considered to constitute a snuff film because the deaths were not enacted in a for-profit film.

Famous quotes containing the words recorded and/or deaths:

    He that is born to be hanged shall never be drowned.
    14th-century French proverb, first recorded in English in A. Barclay, Gringore’s Castle of Labour (1506)

    There is the guilt all soldiers feel for having broken the taboo against killing, a guilt as old as war itself. Add to this the soldier’s sense of shame for having fought in actions that resulted, indirectly or directly, in the deaths of civilians. Then pile on top of that an attitude of social opprobrium, an attitude that made the fighting man feel personally morally responsible for the war, and you get your proverbial walking time bomb.
    Philip Caputo (b. 1941)
