    Bumfights: A Video Too Far

    Documentary about an astonishing and disturbing video in which six teenage filmmakers paid homeless people and addicts to fight each other and perform stunts. Bumfights scandalised America and provoked a horrified public reaction, yet enjoyed phenomenal sales. This documentary features the producers, victims, its copycat followers, and examines the terrible consequences of this truly disturbing phenomenon

    Start Time: 22.00 End Time: 23.00 Duration in Mins: 60
    Just watch it and see.

    The C5 reception here is quite good, just slightly fuzzy but nothing that bad.

    K saw it - Docutmentary.

    It is quite disturbing at points especially the parts where you see what the bums are left with afterwards. BUMFIGHTS tattoed to his forehead! Degrading in the extreme.

    Really makes you think about what you could be watching.

    Saw the Documentary, pretty horendous stuff. Don't want to see the Video's what-so-ever and I would be even more concerned by the so called 'spring offs' that have happened because of it I am in fact more concerned by them than the original.

    I saw the original ages ago after hearing of it on the news. It is discusting, points I remember are:

    Bum pulls out one of his teeth
    lots of fighting
    bloke drinks his piss
    kidnap bums while they sleep, etc...

    Its funny, in places, but in more places it is discusting and I wouldnt watch again.
