A Beginner's Guide to Snuff 2017

In a daring attempt to break into the horror genre, aspiring filmmakers Dresden and Dominic decide to create a found footage film that skillfully blurs the line between reality and fiction. Their journey begins with auditions for an unsuspecting actress named Jennifer, who unwittingly gets caught in their devious plot. The brothers deliberately choose to keep their true intentions hidden, aiming to elicit authentic reactions from Jennifer without her knowledge or consent. Driven by an intense passion for cinema, Dresden defends their unorthodox strategy as a necessary step in pushing the limits of art and ethics.

As the sinister plan unfolds, the brothers kidnap Jennifer, intending to stage a series of horrifying scenarios meant to evoke fear. However, their amateurish tactics prove ineffective as Jennifer remains resilient, quickly realizing their incompetence. Seizing her chance, she escapes, only to find that her captors are not the sole bearers of secrets.

The story takes a dramatic turn when Jennifer asserts her dominance, holding the brothers at gunpoint. As the situation spirals out of control, a shocking revelation comes to light: their intended victim is not as innocent as she seems, but rather a psychopathic killer who has already taken the life of Kenneth Kennedy. The brothers quickly find themselves engulfed in their own nightmare, while Jennifer delights in her newfound control, toying with their fears and documenting their torment for her own malicious purposes.

In a chilling climax, Jennifer’s sadistic games culminate in the ultimate tragedy as she mercilessly ends the lives of both Dresden and Dominic. Yet, the horror does not end there; this gruesome spectacle serves as just a precursor to the devastating reality that their film is set to premiere on Christmas Eve. The juxtaposition of holiday festivities and horrific cinematic gore promises to immortalize the brothers in the annals of found footage horror.
