A snuff film is a film produced for the express purpose of capturing a live murder on camera, made to please an audience. The term was coined by Ed Sanders in his 1971 book The Family, describing a short super 8 reel of a young woman being beheaded on a beach allegedly shown at Charles Manson family screenings. Snuff films were confirmed by European law enforcement authorities before the turn of the 20th century, with German convictions in 1999 and Italian authorities discovering films coded "Necros Pedo" in 2000 showing children raped and tortured until they died.1
