Extreme Torture and Snuff Film Action with Michael Jackson and John Travolta!

August Underground and Philosophy of a Knife are the next films I have plans to review. Philosophy of a Knife is four hours long so I'm not sure when I'm going to get around to that. Those are both extreme, extreme torture horror. However, as I've sort of already said, I'm getting sick of doing that, but it's the stuff that gets hits. To give you a sense of how bad that is, this movie snuff from 1976 that people went to see because it supposedly had real snuff footage in it? Yeah, I FELL ASLEEP watching it. That's really pushing the whole fixation with banned horror films and the whole topic of snuff flicks to the point where I've been running out of decent films to discuss. Apparently, August Underground has scene where two men force a woman to eat her own feces while one of them masturbates. I think these films have run into a wall where the only way they could be worse is to really rape and kill people, and then people who make these films would all go to jail. Also, I have read on-line that one of the women being "tortured" in August Underground cracks up. There is no over-estimating how utterly wretched some of the filmmaking on these kinds of projects can be. There's more interesting to read about on-line than reviews of torture videos,right? Take this tidbit that I spotted on-line today, care of Contact Music: "According to a story in The Sun newspaper, deceased pop superstar Michael Jackson was caught in a vicious feud with his brother Randy and even ordered for a hit in a drug-fuelled, paranoid fury. Skilled, British martial artist Matt Fiddes worked as a bodyguard and has recently come on to comment about his time working for the star, telling of a war Michael was caught in with his brothers for years. In the same article, Fiddes tells of how Michael became something of a paranoid wreck by 2005, surrounding himself with Nation of Islam bodyguards and even barring members of his family from his Neverland Ranch. He was quoted saying the feud came to boiling point when he heard 'Randy was trying to force his way past the bodyguards to speak to him in one of his rented homes. Michael ordered him to be shot dead.' Fortunately the hit never came off, with Fiddes adding that Jackson was 'out of his mind on drugs' during this time." That's quite a statement about the King of Pop there. That's some heavy duty drugs. The story now about John Travolta being sued by a masseur for sexual battery is okay. I buy the one about Michael Jackson just because we all know he was out of his mind on drugs towards the end of his life, and that that was what killed him. Michael Jackson was not above using thugs, Anthony Pellicano being the most famous of said thugs. The one about John Travolta molesting a masseur could be a hard-up masseur trying to make a quick buck. The details about John Travolta going on a rant about Hollywood being run by homosexual Jews are pretty entertaining, but if I was called as a judge on this case I would be highly skeptical that this incident actually took place. I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe John Travolta did touch the masseurs penis. I could be wrong. It is sort of more interesting than the torture video material.

Updates! 5/8 There is now a second masseur making similar allegations against John Travolta. Here's an excerpt from the legal documents I found on Huffington Post- "Travolta had a strange demeanor, bloodshot eyes and climbed onto the already setup massage table...Travolta removed the entire sheet from his body, and he claimed the sheets were sticky and could not tolerate the heat...Travolta further indicated that he likes a lot of 'Glutes' work meaning a massage on his buttocks...While [the plaintiff] was massaging near Travolta's buttocks area, Travolta would open his legs and spread his butt cheeks open and had a full erection and would maneuver in a way to try to force Doe Plaintiff No. 2 to touch his anus and around his anus." Travolta suddenly turned on his stomach with his legs wide open with a full erection. He then tried to force Doe Plaintiff No. 2's hand on Travolta's scrotum. Then, Travolta started to grab, rub and caress Doe Plaintiff no. 2's upper thighs and buttocks....Travolta still had an erection and wanted his abdominals done, but Travolta's erection was in the way and he refused to have his penis covered by a sheet of a pillow case cover." As I'm remembering this film, it seems all the more probable that these allegations are backed in truth: 5/9 The lawyer for Travolta's accusers are saying there are allegations from a number of men in the massage industry. You know as i think back on the Look Who's Talking franchise, I can really see it. I really can.
