Cannibal Holocaust Snuff Film, Media Power
The 1980 horror film "Cannibal Holocaust" is discussed for its realistic depiction of violence, which led to the director's arrest on murder charges. The actors had signed contracts to disappear from the media for a year to fuel rumors that the film was a real snuff movie. The charges were only dropped after the "dead" actors appeared on a television show.
