WARNING! PLEASE DO NOT WATCH THIS IS YOU ARE SQUEAMISH. “Executions” is one of the most disturbing documentaries ever made. This is a very graphic and real film, not some footage that the film makers have created, and many would consider it to be vile and sick. Many had said that this movie should never be released… The film makers are showing their disgust!

“Executions” is a documentary showing real footage of the many different methods humanity has used through-out history for capital punishment. During the film, the makers point out how unjustifiable the death penalty is in every situation, so they do take a staunch stance against what they’re presenting.
