Tom Welles (Nicholas Cage), a straight-laced surveillance specialist sees his innocent, naive world unravel when hired by the widow of a rich industrialist, to investigate what appears to be a snuff movie, discovered in her late husbands safe.
It appears to be a teenage girl being abused then murdered. In order to discover the truth, he enters the citys seedy underworld, guided by porn-store clerk Max California (Joaquin Phoenix), but finds he has bitten off more than he can chew!
I saw 8MM on VHS 10 years ago, and it still is a great movie, still edge of the seat, and still one I feel is worth watching again! Great movie, but not for the squeamish!
Here is the trailer...
