WARNING Torture scenes documented in ths film are real. Caution is recommended to sensitve spectators.

One thing to redefine 'perversion' is the instrumentaton of the other's bodies as a 'pleasure place' without subjectivity.

When the other's bodies are used as objects there is perversion.

Under any form. Even under the form of a traditional sexual relationship.

SNUFF (definiton): Illegal videotape which registers a person's real death.

- Until which point are you willing to watch?

- ln other words. 'What' do you want to watch?

One week earlier.

... in this particuar case. From six years until now various discoveries occured.

The discovery of various female corpses showed up the agenda ofthis psychopath who was active for years.

...who used the city's roads as his playground what gave him the nickname of 'Road Killer'.

In many opportunites only parts of the bodies where found as legs arms, torsos.

All where women from an age range between 20 to 35 years old. Usually prostitutes.

Thsis one of the facts that leads to a very strong criticism to the Police's work in the case

...because apparenty the investgaton wasn't taken too serously due to the victim's profession.

as their families claim.

This is a non precedent case in the country and the first time a suspect of this category is captured.

He has supposedly given a confession, and even clues about bodies of the missing victims.

Here we can see some of the analysis on the unidentified remains.

Other studies in order to discover the identities, because they belong to unidentified victims.

These images are an exclusive.

- Really, think about it, would be excellent. It's warranted interest.

- I always accomplish in time, you know it...

- Who? Malena? You think Malena would do this?

- Sure but Malena is only a feature writer.

- She can give you a simple account, unimportant...

- You know what I'm offering you, a column with opinion, it's investgation...

- I don't know, don't want to delay. I'd like to be one of the first ones to publish.

- No, There's too litte time...

But I won't finish...

- Ok then... One week.

Why always women?

- We surely know women always occupied the 'object' category.

- In the main conception, she was often defined as weaker. That was the place of women through history.

- This is a fact, it always has been. They are seen as an object... and it won't change.

- There's no such thing as non-historical facts.

-There is a 'partition' of the bodies. A psychiatrist named Fiugel

-...who has a theory about 'changing erotic zones'.

- In the Victorian age, the focus of attraction were the shoulders,

- ...In the first decades of the twentieth century were the ankles,

- the shouders in the thirties. Always the bodies where divided, fragmented.

- A fragmentation.

- The misogyny is a 'cultural' fact... And it won't change...

- I brought you something...

- Yes? - Yes...

- What?

DECLARATION.

MUTILATED CORPSES.

WOMEN.

PROSTITUTES.

THE SUSPECT CONFESSES TO VIEWING PORN SITES CONTAINING TORTURE AND SADISM.

THE FOLLOWING IS THE LIST DETAILING THEM.

- This is the most important thing I have to tell you.

There s a new concept called 'Global video-brain'.

- As Jung created the 'Collectve Unconscious' term, the TV is our everyday Bible...

...is our 'collective unconscious' nowadays.

- It functions by images, as our brains thinks by images

- ...and what is the engine of nowadays society?

- Consumism

...consumption, and waste disposal.

- Those without money are left aside the system, with no access... they don't exist.

- ...the others have complete access unlimited... to what they please

- ...to watch what they want, every image they want.

- If bandwith is unlmted... Why must we limit ourselves?

Why wouldn't we watch everything?

- We agree the engine of society is consumption, aren't we?

- Every citizen is an espectator of this 'Global video-brain'

- ...it defines what we are, and even what we want to be.

- Even without our knowledge.

- Tv zappng is the projecton of our desire.

- What technology lets us? 'Virtuality'.

- Have access to everything, watch everything... to peep all

- ... to BE everything.

- There's no limit.

- We must agree it is impossible to believe there are NO limits.

- Why? Who determines that? There are no linits.

- Who defines limits?

- Don't know. I think could be the morality.

'Morality'? What is Morality?

- Do you choose your morality?

- I think there is a place for it, if not so, everything would be unmanageable.

- Morality ends up inside the private of your house.

- Why being moral...

- ...if you can be anonymous?

- There's fine here... I'll go down here.

- How much is it? - In a moment...

- $9

- Here it is, keep the change. Thanks. - Thank you.

- I got really late... sorry for the delay. - It's ok...

- Thank you for receiving me...

- You're welcome...

I wanted to talk, and elucidate things.

- I've been researching and I read some of your reviews, and got very interested.

- Do you want something to drink? - Ok.

- Basically, that's why I wanted to interview you.

- Your reviews were very interesting to me, I thought they were great.

- I'm writing a report which is...

- a little complicated.

- And I'd like to understand a little bit more.

- Well you write profusely about it you're like a speciaist in the subject

- Due to the nature of my reviews, kind of.

- Visual vioence.

- Would you like to begin with a first question?

- What's your opinion about something called 'snuff'?

- Listen

- Would you like to make some money?

- Yes.

- Do you want?

- What?

- To make some money.

- Yes, what must I do?

- It's someone I know, gives good money.

- Ok. - You do what he asks you to do.

- Gives good money

- Ok

- Tomorrow I'll give you his address.

- Ok

- Well, good bye then.

- I'll see you tomorrow.

- 'Snuff' is a myth.

- You're telling me it's existence is impossible then?

- I didn't say that. I said it's know as an 'urban legend'.

- Then...?

- Refect on that for a moment... it's quite improbable that it could happen.

- I really don't know what to say...

- It's a very improbable fact.

- That a man records a videotape

- ...in which he murders a victim, a kidnapped person for this

- ...records it

- ...and later he sells the tape for a wealthy people's ring.

- Woud be ridiculous. would be like handing himself over to the police.

- Ok then...

- You are tellnig me it is impossible

- No... it isn't impossible.

- Actualy, what is impossible is the existence of a 'wealthy people ring' who would do this.

- A group who trades this material, people who sell it.

- People who abduct victims, a lot of loose ends.

- ...many investgations concerning the missing persons.

- ...the people in the group could squeal on someone.

- But yes, an isolated individual could do that.

- The victim wouldn't be anyone, it would be illogical to choose anyone.

- The families, the investigatons, one would end up exposed.

- Of course, there are people for which no one cares.

- Exacty.

- In a consumist socety, the engine is money, those without money...

- I understand... Those without money, they are no good. No one's interested in them.

- It's not a politically correct idea, but...

- What we see in everyday reality?

- Or even in advertising?

- There are bodies who have more 'value' than others.

- There are people who have more 'value' than others.

- I really don't see it that way.

- Of course you don't! The guilt is not what we want.

- Our most fancied hobby is unawareness.

- In order for the subsistence of some, there are others who must suffer.

- Am wrong? Is not the right order?

-Do you know what the price is for buying a child?

- It has a price...

- The interesting part is

- ...that a tape in which that child is raped, tortured and murdered

- ...costs almost the double of the price of the child.

PERHAPS THE TRUE ETHICS OF CINEMA IS THE RESPECT OF THE UNSEEN PARTS OF THE IMAGE.

IN NOT WANTING TO SEE IT ALL, AND NOT FORCING THE IMAGE OF WHAT SHOULD NOT BE SEEN

- Cinema is opposite to 'reality'.

- ...but there's another registry, an anaogue one

- and it isn't supported by any fiction.

- That is the registry of 'pornography'.

- If someone wants to watch 'snuff', has an easy everyday access.

- 'Porn'.

- But, do you think that? Such an extreme stand...

- The image of body is dismembered by the camera.

- We only see fragments of bodies, as the camera only shoots genitalia.

- The dismembered person.

- The person is unimportant, we don't know who she or he is.

- Even more important: We don't care who they are.

- There are bodies to partake for, to use, and consumpton.

- C'mon... You're in the next scene...

- It's not about being for or against violence. It's about analysing it.

- It's impossible... We can't not to involve.

- I need something, Leo...

- At this moment I don't have anything for you.

- Any jobs?

- No, nothing...

- I need to pay rent, I really need to work.

- They'll boot me out. I'm broke.

- I told you, I don't have nothing.

- I won't work on the street.

- ...I hate it.

- Before, you didn't hire me 'cos I was too young

- ...now I'm older. You won't have any problems.

- I'm 21 now, that's the limit. - Ok...

- I really need the money.

- Ok, let me see if I can get you something...

- I won't promise anything, But maybe I can get you something.

- Something like what?

- Don't know... Something. Maybe a participation...

- Anything...

- Ok let me see what I can do... I'll call you later.

- Do you want me to call you?

- NO... I'll call you.

- Ok

- TV creates gigantic monsters

- Such as the U S president, movie-stars or models

- ...while the internet, and the personal-media dismembers those figures.

- Making a carnage, producng new bodies assembling those.

- We remove our auto-censure

- The censorship which aids behind catholic imaginery and prohibits the animal inside us.

- After removing censorshp with help of the digital freedom of technology

- ...we can begin our puzzle with dismembered bodies.

- It's not the dismemberment of the body itsef, it's more important,

- ...we dismember the 'image' of body then we can destroy our censorship.

- Appears the 'animal'.

- "It's not about being for or against violence. It's about analysing it".

- "It's impossible, We can't not to involve".

- Excuse me.

- "We agree the engine of society is consumption aren't we?"

- "Have access to everything, watch everything... to peep all"

- "....to BE everything."

- "There's no limit."

- "We must agree it is impossible to beieve there are NO limits."

- "No. There are no limits."

- "Morality ends up inside the private of your house."

- "Why be moral..."

- "...If you can be anonymous?"

- What are you doing?!!

- Quiet...

- Sorry, I'm late... I've got to go...

- Nothing of this should have happened...www.rarelust.com
