...American midfielder Lauren Fuchs directed the Husky attack, as the forwards, led by Lorie McCollum who scored twice, peppered 22 shots toward Crimson goalie Betty Ippolito. But the UConn defense controlled the game, repeatedly converging on the ball to snuff out every Harvard drive...
...have no empathy for the victims in Humanoids, Prom Night, or Friday the 13th-- dubbed by horror novelist Stephen King in a Phoenix interview as a "snuff movie," where the audience waits eagerly for 13 campers and counsellors to be gorily dispatched. The violence in these low-budget horror films signals a new irreverence for the human body: no longer a vessel for the mind or soul but for blood, bone, pus, intestine and anything else that can come spurting, splashing, oozing, or quivering out; a source of irridescent colors, strange and squashy textures, squishing and crunching sounds.

...horrifying extreme of this case comes in the form of snuff films. In these films, the leading woman (inevitably an aspiring young actress) is beaten, raped and murdered--in the film and in reality as well. It is now illegal to make such films in the U.S., yet they are still imported and shown and turn a profit. As Linda Lovelace commented, referring to her period of sexual slavery, "I thank God today that they weren't making snuff movies back then."
