rotten.com has entered the chat.

For us it was 'faces of death' (don't know if this is the exact title in English, but this is what the title would be translated literally) on copied VHS tapes. Glad I was a teen already when these circled around...

Yeah I'm German, I saw them as well. There must have been at least 4, but probably way more. We got them from the Netherlands for some reason.

Yeah, in the US it was 'Faces of Death' as well. I remember the advertisements. Never saw it, but I saw plenty of horrific shit on rotten.com as a teen

This triggered me hard. More than 2 decades later I still remember that guy that did not wear a (full face) helmet…

[–] viking@infosec.pub 3 points 8 months ago

Not sure I remember that particular one, but there was a lot of messed up shit I really shouldn't have seen with 12 years.
