a reviewer on Amazon:
"Any moron knows Faces Of Death is 90% staged, fake and boring gore. Traces Of Death is true coroner video and things of the like, nothing in it is faked. So I guess you could say it's for true gore fans....there is better, but very very very few video's will gross you out more then this...I'd recommend Scenes Of Death and Banned In America if you're into this stuff.
All in all though, these movies will desensitize ANYONE from what death is all about...if you can stomach the ride, you'll probably look at life a little differently when you're done."
in short: this sounds like a really bad idea.

I'd rather you read the whole of your thread before replying, or do you just post a toipic then attempt to OD on cough sweets?

it's film and video of people dying and being seriously injured to a speed metal soundtrack.
i saw it circa 1995, though it's not something i'm interested in. individuals may enter with natural curiosity, but will find an ugly, exploitative and antihuman entertainment vehicle.
i think you won't learn much from watching, and what you do learn will not serve you.

Well, I was kind of refering to what qrter had quoted from a review where someone mentions the collectors edition... but I guess you missed it whilst you were "jacking" another strepsil.

Generally I would rather have ''breath of feces'' (aka eat shit) than EVER watch one of these lame-ass gore films. I've seen plenty of roadkill in my time, so basically that covers all of the content of one of these videos (your insides dont look too far different from that of a racoon or deer or whatever), so yeah I feel confident that people who watch these are extremely boring, fucked up individuals if they watch it for any other reason than ONCE out of curiosity.

I couldn't imagine a worse feeling than receiving in the mail a BOOTLEGGED copy of traces of death and not a genuine, collectors edition issue.. thank god for people like that reviewer quoted above.. we need more people like him looking out for all of us

back in the day it was called speed metal. anyway, to make you happy i am revising my statement to "an awful, generic death metal soundtrack." i realize "generic" is redundant given the genre, but it fits. don't say i never did anything for you, buddy.

the average evil-sleazy-death-video watcher is quite the connoisseur, not settling for anything less.
"..hey.. wait a minute.. this soundtrack.. fuck! that's NOT death metal!! FUCK!!"

I sort of want to see it.. the only problem is buying it contributes REAL dollars toward it.. thus participating in increasing the demand ever so slightly which in turn contributes to people's desire to supply or make more of such films (but I don't know if there's right or wrong in making them anyway). Rotten.com is probably the online equivalent. It can make you feel bad but in that way it's a drug, just as all movies seem to be. They're taps into whatever partular emotion you feel like feeling.

It does seem disrespectful to the dead though. If I knew they wouldn't care (when they were alive) if many people watched them dying, it wouldn't be so bad.

that's right. it's a video version of rotten.com, exactly.
some of the seedier rental places should have it. i believe we rented it back in 1994 or something.
