Awesome collection! Those must've cost a fortune. The VHS times pretty much ended in my late teens, but word has it that asian mondo tapes were kind of the holy grail for any VHS collector. I'll be getting 12 Death Files titles this week as a digital copy, never seen any of them before. I'm expecting something in the likes of Death Women, is that appropriate?

Got lots of these on VHS dubs. Death Files, Dead Women series, true gore, etc... I recall reading article what mentioned that in Japan was big trend/boom of all sorts of violence and grotesque in early 90's.  All those great magazines a'la TOO NEGATIVE and videos of all sorts of true gore. Accidents, deaths, autopsies, etc..   But I guess that was killed by internet. Why bother, when everything is out there, for free. I'm guessing that onyone looking for accidents, death, suicides, autopsies, just go to whatever atrocious video tube channels and click play....

Yeah, they are pretty much impossible to find online. I guess there are torrents somewhere, but they're most likely dead. I'm getting mine from a hardcore enthusiast who I "met" coincidentally. Been searching for these for years, originally I thought only DF Yellow, Red and Black existed, now I know that there are also DF 1-5, the New Death File series etc.

I'm not a walking encyclopedia on these matters but I also know of many japanese compilations, but I guess most of them are even harder to find than the DF series nowadays. The internet is "better" for these matters I guess, but it misses most of the obscurity of some of the old VHS tapes. I recall seeing some newer thing called "Gesichter des Sterbens" (meaning "Faces of Dying" in English - very creative) which sucked incredibly hard as well as a newer (?) "sequel" to "Executions" (which has nothing to do with the original of course), which sucked just as much. I don't know of any other post-internet compilations except "Most Disturbed Person on Planet Earth", which is nothing more than an assembly of some fetish JAV and basically all of the internet gross out clips. Never made it to DVD and the relevance is also quite questionable in my eyes. The decease of Real Death doesn't bother me as much as the death of the Mondo film though. Those were always a real treat. But I guess the times in which stuff like that was marketable are over since the 70ies, hehe.

I think the company that released  Death Files has a branch in Brazil that has released the series on dvd. I remember looking at the site but didn't save the link. I'd love to have burns of all of those too!

Yup, the spanish alternate title for the series is "Arquivos da Morte". It seems as if the DF series was only a side project for the company MAD, as it was really productive back in the days, also marketing tons of bestiality, the Guinea Pig films, fetish porn etc. I guess some liberal country like the Netherlands could make a fortune by rereleasing some of their stuff, just like Alpha Blue started to do some time ago.

Holy shit, Coma Detox told me he scored the videos on eBay for cheap!

Unearthed Films should try to get some of the Death Files for release in the US or a Death Women I/II dual Blu-ray set sold in porn shops only., like they were sold in Japan. Has anyone seen Vol. 2? I think I still have a dub of the first one & some of the D.Files.

Interesting! Thanks for posting about this.


80 bux for this on ebay, tempting to go back on the internet, but you can only use the internet content for so long. The old vhs are a better mode of receiving the content.
The cover photo from this Death File Red video depicts a fetal alcohol or drug related birth defect, this same footage was included in one of the  Traces Of Death videos, that would also be a cool dvd set to track down, but some parts of those Traces Of Death videos are completely stupid when they replace actual death footage with race car crashes, ect.

Even though it lacks a lot of on screen violence, I think this film works better than the original Faces Of Death, I found out about it in a film class in college, and was lucky enough to be given a bootleg copy of it on vhs.

There's currently Orozco The Embalmer for sale on Ebay. Maybe some of you have enough money and enthusiasm to buy it? I would love to but that's just too much for my budget. I have it on my computer and I kinda like it. It's exactly what the title says it is: 1h and 32 min of embalming action, hah.

Miker, would love to have a rip of that film!

I have the Japanese dvd release of Orozco that the director/artist released. Bought it from Xploited Cinema for around $69. Never, ever thought it'd get  released in the U.S.!  I also have the Japanese Junk Films dvd.

Look for the US dvds of both of those released by Massacre Video (DiabolikDVD has them). Much, much cheaper:

I think I saw on DiabolikDVD that they're cheaper but didn't notice if they were actually in stock.

I remember "Of the Dead"- same director as the infamous "Pig Fucking Movie". Wouldn't mind seeing both again...

Hers is that tape, it's pretty good Ted Bundy interview, then after that you find out its an anti pornography propaganda film.

It's good film in some ways. Orozco is so harsh in his attitude & looks. Especially in scene where he fills the small child with all sorts of fabrics to avoid body collapsing into unnatural look.
