What I'm talking about are videos - not feature films - that either depict the actual rape and/or torture of a human being, or are presented as depicting such, to the point that you can't tell one from the other. The sort of thing where, whether it's "real" or not, the viewer pretty much takes for granted that it is. Which is nothing like a film - even an extremely violent, disturbing film - where the viewer knows that what they're seeing isn't real.
I don't know if I've made things any clearer, but I figured it was worth a shot...
