I propose[edit]

That the "meat" of this article be merged in with either Snuff Film or Deep Web. After doing my best to fix this, I feel that the entire article as it stands is unnecessary, and it is just part of the broader Deep Web urban legend.Blitz (Complaints Box) 21:16, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

I'm going to get this into a state to get published somewhere, then I'll leave it alone. Can you leave it alone until then? Deku-shrub (talk) 22:59, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

Pre-Videodrome Red Rooms?[edit]

Are there any known references to red rooms, or the like, before Videodrome? Obviously, the idea of snuff films predates, but i always figured the red room in Videodrome was purely a Cronenberg creation and the urban legend sprung out of it, rather than the other way around.

I'm meeting one of the authors of killing for culture David Kerekes in the next couple of weeks, that's the sort of question I'll be asking him. :) Deku-shrub (talk) 14:25, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
