From MPI Home Video comes Faces of Death III, a collection of allegedly real scenes of death and horror. Produced by Gorgon Video, the 90-minute program features graphic footage of car wrecks, crocodile and dog attacks, torture, rape, and murder.

Using the torture and death in 2002 of an innocent Afghan taxi driver as the touchstone, this film examines changes after 9/11 in U.S. policy toward suspects in the war on terror.
