A psychopath and his retarded, hillbilly buddy abduct two women and hold them captive out in the buddy's desert junkyard where he intends on recording - you guessed it - 'the great American snuff film'. They put the girls through various forms of abuse and torment leading up to the final 'shoot', though their partnership becomes strained when the hillbilly friend can't seem to help himself from wanting to rape one of the girls, which he does, as well as killing her, thus putting a damper on the 'director's' project.
I found this one a decent enough indie effort with a fairly sleazy look to it and adequate acting, overall. Could've been a bit more rough, violence-wise, but oh well. And for the record, the 'true story' claim, as well as the purported "real" murder footage at the end is bullshit, as I initially figured. My search engine research wasn't at all extensive in finding this out, plus, if this footage (as well as the three other snuff clips the movie states exist on the internet) was real I feel I would've known of it long ago, seeing as how I DO tend to scour the web for shit like that. So, despite its falsehoods, I'll give this one a moderate rec. Not great, but definitely falls into my 'ok' category.
