Fun Stuff

Trivia:
John Strand from Cinevision contacted Ray Atherton who had no luck with his B&W footage he called Death Scenes. John Strand told him he was distributing repackaged "Faces Of Death" for Gorgon Video and it would be a good Follow-Up to Faces Of Death. They made a deal and made it a video for distribution and sold the heck out of it with the follow-up of Faces of Death. John Strand's marketing and packaging of the two movies was perfect timing of the two movies. It put him on the map as a producer. more

Death Scenes Volume 1 is in no way sensationalistic. This film does not glorify death but affirms life.

I highly recommend this to individuals with an open mind and an interest in truth and in this case an ultimate truth. Hosted by the Doktor himself, D S Vol.1 is a dark, humorous and engaging documentary detailing the foibles of some most unfortunate individuals.

Fans of the recent Penn and Teller Showtime series "Bullshit" may also find this series of interest.

Death Scenes should not be lumped in with series like "Banned in America" etc. Which are void of any kind of artistic merit and only exist to shock the viewer.
