Beautiful, moving film.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

"Snuff" (1976)"Snuff" was a video nasty that was banned and gained notoriety during the 70s. The film presents itself as a snuff film but it is actually not, the content of the film is not what it made it notorious but the marketing behind the film. There were tag lines for the film such as "The Bloodiest thing that ever happened in front of a camera" and "The film that could only be made in South America... where life is cheap! These tag lines and marketing behind the film is what got it banned, because people believed it to be an actual snuff film and would protest that the film should not ever be shown on screen and that it should be banned, even though most of them hadn't seen the content on the film. The film "Snuff" was actually made under a different title earlier in the 70s known as "Slaughter" and wasn't intended to be a snuff film at first, but when the film was released it wasn't very successful and therefore was forgotten about for several years until it was picked up again and edited to have a different ending. The final minutes of the film were edited to show an actress on the set of "Slaughter" being murdered in a savage and brutal way to spice up the film, but the previous filmmakers of the original film had no clue that the title of their film had been changed and edited until the initial release of "Snuff". The point of the controversy of this film is that it's not the content of the film itself but the hype and marketing behind it which lead people to be believe it was a genuine snuff film. The film barely has anything violent in it until the final minutes of the film and the acting is atrocious, but it's a must have for collectors of video nasties! Review by Dylan Brown Rating 2.5 out of 10

I vaguely remember the outrage over this one, but finally seeing it years later, I'll embarrassingly admit it was kinda fun. The real movie is a pretty disjointed Manson cult movie called "Slaughter" with a gang of pretty girls who worship a dude named Satan (suh-TAHN). He makes them kill for drugs and money. The gang of hotties is pretty brutal to a girl named Ann. An American actress comes to Brazil to make a movie, takes a lover and gets pregnant. Satan says the child is supposed to be a sacrifice, and from there on out, nothing makes a lot of sense, but we do get some shots of Carnival. But you don't care about the real movie. What brings you to rent the infamous "Snuff" is, well, the infamous snuff sequence. SPOILERS FOLLOW As the main movie ends, the camera pulls back to reveal a film crew. A guy and a girl are making out on a bed and it turns out it's a snuff film! Her arm is cut, a finger is chopped of with pliers, her other hand is cut off with a ripsaw - wholesome stuff. Then she's cut open and her guts are played with for a while. The screen goes blank and you can hear the crew talk about how they ran out of film. How conveeenient. It's not very well done, or even all that shocking. In fact, all the tacked on snuff sequence did was make me want to see all of "Slaughter." But you live and learn.

"Snuff" is actually a pretty notorious little film for propagating the snuff film myths.However it's also really bad,an amateurishly acted,written and dubbed Charlie Manson inspired story about a crazed hippy who controls pretty girls and makes them worship him and kill.The 5-minutes long pseudo-snuff segment added to the end of the film contains the sequence in which an actress in the movie is slashed,her fingers and hands chopped off and then disemboweled in unconvincing,prototypical Guinea Pig fashion.If you want to see the closest thing to snuff ever put on screen try to find Psychic TV's very graphic "First Transmission" video from 1982.

Snuff is in no way a good movie, I should start with that. I hadn't even heard of this movie until recently and figured that it should be in my library. It is worth a viewing, I will give it that. And it is not the movie that makes it worth your time, it is the end.The plot begins with several women on motorcycles who go off and kill this girl for "Holding out on them". Then we meet Sattan (I think that is his name) who is a Charlie Manson wannabe. He apparently has control over these woman and can make them do whatever he wants. Next, we are introduced to an actress coming into South America with her director to start filming a new movie. She meets up with an old flame and then the director is murdered by the crazy women. The storyline goes back and forth from the wannabe Manson family to the actress all leading up to a bunch of random hilarious murders.This movie was a struggle to sit through due to its extremely slow first half. Things do finally pick up when a new girl joins up with the wannabe Manson family and starts telling her tale. After that, we just see a lot of silliness and a great scene at a general store in which the women murder everyone there. Look for the girl in the scene whose mother has just been murdered because her acting is priceless. Finally, the end of the movie is really what makes it all worth while. The director in the end tries to simulate an actual murder. The results are silly for todays standards but was still pretty nifty looking with a pair of clippers chopping off fingers and ripping out guts. I liked it, even if it was fake. So if you read this review ignore the low rating the movie gets on IMDb, which is like a 2/10. I would give this movie a 7/10 for enjoyment and the end sequence.
