I prefer a film with a snuff theme that takes you into the world of the persons involved, thats more interesting to me than a bad fake gore job. Though I would never ever want to see a real snuff film.
I have no interest in seeing one either mate. I've seen real deaths in things like 'The Killing of America' and 'Black Sun: The Nanking Massacre' etc. and thats disturbing enough. I'd much rather watch something like 8mm which is a really great film. Like you said It takes you to a place you dont feel comfortable in but yet are fascinated by and cant take your eyes off (even if it is briefly).

Theres a scene in AU's Penance where the killers do a home invasion on christmas eve which is so far beyond horrible, thats one of the only scenes I've ever seen which I truly found disturbing. I think these films are made more as endurance tests than entertaining horror films. I'd much rather watch a horror with a snuff theme.
