Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAfter many years of intense investigation, there is still no actual proof that real snuff films even exist or, indeed, have ever existed. With this in mind, opportunistic co-producer Allan Shackleton saw the chance to make a quick buck. He took an Argentinian low budget biker film titled The Slaughter (1971), changed its title to "Snuff", removed all of its credits and added a 10-minute epilogue to it that showed the supposed director of "The Slaughter" finish making the film and suddenly attack one of its female cast members, then kill and disembowel her, all the while being surreptitiously filmed by a cameraman. This footage was then passed off as real, even though the atrocious acting and sub-par special effects clearly showed that it was phony. Nevertheless, ever the entrepreneur, Shackleton arranged a public showing of the film in Times Square, NY, told the New York Police Department what was about to be shown there and set up a small group of phony "protesters". The publicity stunt worked; "Snuff" made over $300,000 in three weeks.
- GoofsThe English dubbing does not match the characters' mouth movements throughout the entire film.

- Alternate versionsA numbered limited edition Region 0 DVD version of this film released by Blue Underground was once available, but is now out of print. Playing with the "Life is CHEAP" tagline of the film, the DVD case was made to look like a brown paper bag. There were also no menus, no chapter stops and no special features on it. This version was uncut.

Featured review
Really silly 70s flashback.
OK first of all, if you watch this movie because you are expecting a real snuff film (or at least a realistic looking fake), you will be greatly disappointed.
First of all, there's no record of an actual snuff film being made. The fact that there is a DVD of this film available should tell you right away there's no way that it could be real snuff. If snuff exists, it is an extremely well kept secret.
Second, the snuff scene is so fake that I can't believe that anyone actually believed that it was real. You can see exactly how the gore was faked, not to mention the fact that the actress is not very good.
If you watch this film, watch it for the movie preceeding the snuff scene. It is extremely poorly written, directed and acted, but it is so bad that it will make you laugh. My friend and I think that this movie should be called SATAN'S B*TCHES, because it's kinda like CHARLIE'S ANGELS, but the women are evil and their master is Satan (pronounced Suh-TAWN). Rent this one if you just want to see a funny 70s movie.
