There called, I believe, "snuff films" (the ones where the 'star' is murdered on film). The 'star' (usually a runaway, or someone else without traces) gets to be a film star for the one and (obviously) only time in their life. They are exceedingly expensive, BUT NOT that hard to come by (so I am told). There was also another such reference in the film (I forget the title) about Marlyn Monroe's early film career. There are obviously lots of REALY sick people out there. This is, to my mind, far worse than "kiddie porn". Ray
