Review by Jimmy Squarejaw
*Warning*
All movies reviewed for SUNDAY SNUFF contain graphic depictions that may include rape, live animals being murdered, and extreme gore. None of the writers condone such acts we just watch this shit.
This week I had a sincere moment where I reflected upon a lot of the bad choices I’ve made in my life; getting a tattoo inspired by Travis Barker, going to see the Family Values Tour in 2002, and smoking PCP before I watched KICKBOXER Part 2, 3, and 4. But as they say, "it’s better to go through life making mistakes rather than having regrets." And watching the 1976 movie SNUFF sure as hell was a mistake. On the plus side it was a whole hell of a lot better than the shit hemorrhage known as PROJECT X, the god awful yawn fest titled DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK, or the gift to teenage suicide known as THE HANGOVER!
SNUFF is a run to capitalize on the hysteria created by the Manson Family in the late 60’s early 70’s. Short story short, it’s about a female biker gang doing drugs and killing the hell out of an assortment of people under the Svengali figure known only as Satan, pronounced Sah-Than. This group of uninhibited biker-women go through shopkeepers, movie directors, and distinguished gentleman taking a squeak in the local Brazilian Airport bathrooms. By the end of SNUFF I was exhausted trying to keep track during horrible dubbing, tons of dialogue scenes that take place almost off camera, and terrible unrealistic violence. Then all of the sudden at the non-thrilling climax SNUFF switches gears and totally abandons the entire story thus far and turns to the camera crew shooting the final scene of the movie we were watching. A guy, I’m thinking the director, coerces a young gal on staff to start getting it on with him in front of the whole camera crew. Then he pins the sexed up girl down, cuts her finger off and guts her, amazingly enough pulling out her heart from where her uterus is as well as all of her intestines. My guess is SNUFF was shit and probably titled something completely different then someone, guessing an executive producer, had a brilliant idea to incorporate a scene that “could be a girl dying on camera” and re-titled it SNUFF.
Now, I wasn’t totally against SNUFF, but I thought I was going to watch some batshit movie involving who knows what! The movie itself is a great entry into 70’s cult cinema but it capitalizes on the title and the mystery around it leaving this viewer totally let down on any and every extreme possibility. Know this, if you pick SNUFF up buy it as if you were buying some cheese-dick 70’s exploitation movie not a gritty entry into the hellish world of extreme movies! For a hell of a lot more info look this movie up on wikipedia, very informative!

Blake and Jimmy's Extreme-O-Gauge!
Rape: 0 out of 0Realistic Gore: 1 out of 5, there is shitty, unconvincing special effects up until the end! And then the effects go from shitty to just bad!
Animal Death: 0 out of 0
Torture: 1 out of 5, one guy is whipped, some chicks toes are cut, and the end girl is ripped apart. But my 13 year old cousin could make something look more convincing.
Necrophilia: 0 out of 0
Overall Movie: 1 out of 5, I might, maybe, someday watch this again. But for the most part is SUCKED.
