Last year, on her first trip to the U.S., Rachel Sabag, an Israeli, went to the predictable tourist spots--San Francisco, Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon.

But most exploiteurs were amateurs--like Doris Wishman, with her mesmerizingly absurd tales of good women gone bad. The husband-and-wife team of Michael and Roberta Findlay, who, Weldon says admiringly, "made the most twisted softcore adult movies of them all," later concocted the fake snuff film, Snuff. They specialized in bizarre ways of killing off sexy women (crossbow, electrified earrings, dildo switchblades). Exploitation? Or prophecy?
