시놉시스
This film is a Mondo film, which only shows various forms of violence, images of accidents and dead people. This film, after a brief introduction from the director, is not intended to glorify violence, but only to show the reality. Images of surveillance cameras showing shopkeepers being threatened with weapons, amateur videos of Colombian drug trafficking, executions and skull collections are shown here. As the film progresses, one sees various deformities of newborn and unborn babies. The film concludes with a hip hop music video.
Emanuelle hosts this peculiar sexploitation Mondo film that looks at several examples of bizarre sexual behavior.
의사인 프란시스 그로스가 삶과 죽음에 대한 연구를 위해 촬영한 장면들을 다큐멘타리 형식으로 편집하여 보여주는 일종의 페이크 다큐멘타리영화.
뭐 실제인지 아닌지는 모르겠지만 삶과 죽음에 대한 그럴듯한 설명을 통해 보여주는 장면들은 확실히 높은 강도를 보여줍니다. 특히 오프닝의 수술 잡도과정과 동물을 잡는 장면 등은 실제 촬영분이라고 하더라구요..?? 인간이 살겠다고 또는 즐기겠다고 동물을 죽이는 장면 등은 나름대로 느끼는바가 확실한데 나머지 부분에서는 삶과 죽음을 고찰하기엔 표현강도가 높아 뇌가 잠시 집나간 듯한 느낌이 듭니다. 이제는 고어에 익숙해진 저지만 왠만한 사람들에겐 불쾌한 영화임에는 틀림없습니다.
PS. 카니발리즘을 표현한 카니발 홀로코스트 시리즈의 상업적 성공이 이런 영화를 만들게 한 원인이라면 원인이지만 이 영화 역시 시리즈로 제작될 정도의 인기를 얻은건 사실입니다.
아프리카 식민지 시대의 종말에 대한 다큐멘터리로, 밀렵, 폭력, 살인, 부족 학살 행위를 묘사합니다.
A day in the lives of a hit-and-run driver and her victim, and the bizarre things that happen to them before and after they collide (sexual assault by a crazed foot-fetishist, visions of the Virgin Mary, strange chicken-foot grafting operations).
A faux travelogue that mixes documentary and mockumentary footage. The camera looks through a one-way glass into the women's dressing room at a lingerie shop, visits a Kyoto massage parlor, goes inside the mailroom at Frederick's of Hollywood, watches an Australian who sticks nails through his skin and eats glass, checks out the art and peace scene in Los Angeles, takes in Easter week with vacationing college students on Balboa Island, observes a German audience enjoying a play about Nazi sadism, and, with the help of powerful military lenses, spies on a Lebanese white-slavery auction.
"Mondo" sort of documentary around English customs.
A documentary highlighting some of the oddest, strangest and more grotesque examples of human behavior. Included are a tour of the Grand Guignol theater in Paris, a man who sticks long needles through his body, reindeer being castrated, and footage of lesbians and strippers.
Documentary film making at its best as it narrates very exotic and esoteric rituals of the primitive peoples of Africa.
Mondo Cane and the Schoolgirl Report series stand as obvious influences on this occasionally amusing but generally rather tedious exploitation film that alternates between documentary, fake documentary and docudrama. The theme is Satanism and the linking thread is a recreation of what is supposedly the real-life case of a murder and attempted murder of two Munich teenage men by a quartet of girls who had been dabbling in devil worship. During the ensuing trial, the lawyer resorts to dilatory tactics while the hearing is frequently interrupted by the girls breaking into incantation, temper tantrums or shivery fits ostensibly bearing on demonic possession. When the subject of the Manson killings is brought up, the most obnoxious of the defendants breaks in indignantly, claiming that Sharon Tate’s “execution” was justified as she posed dangers to the Satanic community.

A new age Mondo film that explores the realm of urban decay and various oddities of the modern world, ranging from underground club scenes to sex change operations.
Documentary showing perverse and aberrant behavior from around the globe, including such things as sex slavery, dwarf love, Asian brothels and lesbians.
The film documents the night life scenes of both Hong Kong and Macau, from nightclubs, sauna baths to young ladies making category III VCDs.
A Mondo documentary that juxtaposes footage of death, carnage, and unpleasantness with scenes of inspiring and beautiful imagery.
An Italian mondo documentary about Finland. Among other things, it showcases intricacies of local mating culture, sports, Midsummer festivities and sauna.
A 'documentary' of stripping, from the dawn of humanity to the future.
An exotic world of eroticism, witchcraft, masochism and strange secret places.
Fascinated by forbidden rituals and ceremonies, world explorer Arthur Davis takes a crew with hidden cameras to Africa and South America to secretly record the beauty and horror of the "law of the jungle". BRUTES AND SAVAGES is the filmed document of his death-defying adventures. Shocking, brutal and repulsive, this film mixes bizarre authentic footage with incredibly exploitive (and often hilarious) "re-enactments" of his findings. Animal sacrifices, bizarre tribal ceremonies, mating rituals and even brain surgery.
Fifth part of the 'Facez of Death 2000'-series
