Thanks to Wikileaks publishing the Dutroux Dossier in 2008, we know hundreds of snuff films were recovered from the notorious pedo-rapist Marc Dutroux. Just because the police keep those films as sealed evidence that are never published does NOT mean snuff films are an Urban Legend. I can see why the police always keep snuff films secret. Imagine what would happen if snuff films were uploaded all over the Internet? There would be mobs of angry villagers armed with torches and pitchforks descending on jails and prisons to lynch pedos. It would make harassment from QANONs look like school yard bullying.

Snuff films are, fortunately, still only a subject of urban legends, since those films you mention do not meet the definition. Were those films made in order to entertain other people than the person who made them? Were the films ever distributed to any of those people? Was anyone ever actually killed in any of these movies? If the answer to any one of those three questions is “no”, then the movies, horrible as they may be, were not “snuff” films, as commonly defined. From what I can see in your reference, the first two of those things are decidedly not true, and the reference is unclear regarding the third. (The films were, according to your reference, made only for blackmail purposes, and therefore certainly not made for enjoyment of any viewer, nor were they ever distributed to other people for their enjoyment. The reference does claim that people were killed in a specific place which was also filmed, but does not, what I can see, explicitly state that any murders were actually filmed, other than incorrectly calling all the films “snuff” films.)

  I think that some of you should take a look at news websites about the drug and kidnapping cartels down in Latin America... They regularly post their own snuff films online and I can guarantee you that they're not only very real but also extraordinarily brutal. No urban legend about it.
