Traces of Death... Woah!!!!

Salamander In The Sun · #1 07-21-2007, 03:46 PM

I just finished watching the "Traces of Death" DVD's, and all I can say is... Wow. I don't think I'll ever be scared of anything ever again. I think I may have just been totally desensitized to death, blood, gore, pain, etc.

Have any of you guys ever seen anything like this? I've seen the "Faces of Death" collection, and that is child's play compared to "Traces".

If any of you want to scare yourselves stupid, try to find a copy of one of the Trace's. Preferably the first or second.

I actually thoroughly enjoyed them, and plan on watching them again, though.

I think they're banned in the US, though. So anybody wanting to find a copy might have to check the bay.

Be warned, they're not for children, elderly people, or pretty much anybody else for that matter.

I watched the 'unknown russian soldier' you can find it on Limewire, that was the worse thing I have ever ever seen, it left me in total shock for days.

I've never seen that one. But I doubt that it would bother me after seeing these videos.

I'll have to look it up, though.

The only video that I wish I had NEVER watched, was the video with Nick Berg. It was horrific.

Faces of Death all suck after the first one. FAKE

Not very positive stuff man!

Dude...I think you should invest in a good love story like "Gone with the wind"

How about "Traces of LIFE!!!"

Wow, sweet, I watched those faces of death movies as a kid at my friends house. Of course there like 95% fake, but, you know, when you like 14 it didn't matter. After doing some research these Traces movies seem way more legit and are almost, if not totally 100% real footage.

I'm pretty sure the first one was fake too, which is why I never really got into them. Traces of Death is 100% real.

I have to agree, they're the anti-positive. But, I enjoy freaking myself out, so I really enjoyed them, as sick as that probably sounds.

Never really enjoyed GWTW, either.

Different strokes for different folks, I suppose.

Yeah, I've seen all of the Faces of Death videos, and it was really evident that they were fake.

I can assure you, the Traces of Death videos are real, though. Once you see some of it, it's very evident that it's all real.

Actually, quite the contrary.

I've experienced some pretty horrible things in my life. But I won't get into that drama fest.

I don't know why I like them, I just do. No reason to get mad at me.

BTW, happy birthday, buddy.

It's like seeing some of the stuff on rotten.com, there are pics and videos I wish I'd never seen

I squeemishly (sp?) watched "Scarred" (MTV?) the other night and saw a bunch of nasty skateboard/bike/roller blade tricks gone wrong with lots of nasty stuff.

For some reason, I got that vibe. I think whenever I see the

smilie, it makes me think "annoyed".

No problem, man. How old are you?

If Rotten bothers you, don't even think about popping in Traces of Death.

Scarred can be kind of nasty sometimes, but they never really show anything that's too bad. The only injury I ever saw on there that made me squirm was a compound fracture. A bone through skin gives me the willies.

The various beheadings of hostages in Iraq are very disturbing as well...I wish I had never seen them...

I've experienced it a lot. In fact, I just recieved a call telling me that my uncle died about twenty minutes ago. So, I'm no stranger to it.

It's not that I enjoy seeing people in pain or anything, I just love freaking myself out.

I don't know what to think about all of those. Once I found out that the one with Nick Berg was staged, I didn't know whether or not any of the other ones were real or not.
