Query re: additions[edit]

I am not sure what the following comments are supposed to mean exactly.

The mystery continued when Michael Findlay was killed in a helicopter accident.
Neither his wife Roberta, nor the argentinian actors Aldo Mayo, Alfredo Iglesias and Mirtha Massa wanted to talk about the making of the film

What was the mystery that continued after Michael Findlay's death? I didn't know there was a mystery; all discussions I've read about this film all state that it was an old horror film with a tacked-on faked-murder new ending. No mystery there. The other comment is difficult to disprove. I've never really read interviews from any of these people, just a single comment by Roberta Findlay which apparently assesses the quality of the script of the film. Did they actually *refuse* to talk about the film or is it just that few comments or interviews have surfaced? MinorEdit 22:53, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

OK I'm deleting the text quoted above from the main article. MinorEdit 07:05, July 15, 2005 (UTC)

Identifying the cast[edit]

In an interview on The Rialto Report, producer Jack Bravman says the Argentine beauty queen Mirta Massa was in this film. I've linked her name accordingly. (Her given name is apparently misspelled on the film's poster as "Mirtha".) Bravman also says his girlfriend Xanthe Ellis had a "lead role" in Slaughter/Snuff, and also appeared in Invasion of the Blood Farmers. (Ellis's name also appears on the poster for Slaughter.) Having skimmed both (terrible) films on YouTube, the actress who plays Ana in Snuff does bear a strong resemblance to the actress who appears 59 minutes into Blood Farmers. This leads me to think the names of the Snuff actresses and characters as listed here and on IMDb are mixed up - but I guess that's WP:OR. --Muzilon (talk) 15:25, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Theatrical release in 1971?[edit]

Is there any proof the film was ever screened theatrically under the title Slaughter? The Skeptical Inquirer article says it was, but producer Jack Bravman seems to imply it was shelved due to potential distributors being uncomfortable about its parallels to the Tate murders. I searched Newspapers.com for advertisements or theatrical listings, but only got hits for the 1972 Blaxploitation film of the same name.--Muzilon (talk) 09:09, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
