The Killing of America A.K.A. アメリカン・バイオレンス, Amerikan baiorensu (1982)

A Japanese American mondo documentary directed by Sheldon Renan and Leonard Schrader.
Murder and murderers in America are discussed.
This was really nothing special. The killers were covered quickly. Lots of television footage was used, so the audio and video were both pretty terrible. There was tons of dead air noise to the point of cacophony and some of the video was so low quality that movement in it turned psychedelic. There was also a strong anti-gun message, even though most of the killers did not use guns. There was some gruesome crime scene footage, but that was tame compared to other mondo films I've seen. I rate this o.k. and would not recommend watching it.
