Hey folks, I don't have to work today and before I have to go to the gym and a conference call I will take 30 min off and get all the best Documentaries I have seen or collected and post them here, please join me and make this great threat: There are so many interesting Documentaries out there.
I knwo there are many many Docus at TV-Links but I think it would be nice to post links with a little discription here.
First my absolute favourit Docus of all times:
Vietnam first Kill
THIS IS THE ABSOLUTLY BEST DOCU I HAVE EVER SEEN...AND I HAVE TO URGE ANYBODY TO WATCH IT PLEASE!!!!
If you want to know why Soldiers starting to like killing, why there is so much beauty in war and killing...
There are inteviews (very deep and dark) of people that have done unimagineble things.
It is the most single interesting Documentary I have ever seen, very chilling and it will make you think.
Description: First Kill confronts viewers with an uncomfortable question: what is it like to take the life of another human being? Provocatively, the film recognizes the contradictory feelings of fear and excitement evoked by war and our ongoing fascination with war and its memory. After refusing to give interviews for ten years, Michael Herr, former war correspondent, consultant on Apocalypse Now! and screenwriter of Full Metal Jacket, agrees to recount his wartime experiences.
A former soldier admits his addiction to killing and his occasional longing to be back in the jungle. Vietnam veterans struggling with trauma talk about their experiences and nightmares, while others describe feelings of numbness and the impression of war as just another job. These testimonies are juxtaposed with images of tourists—both young Vietnamese and foreigners—visiting the killing fields, camera in hand.

The Iceman Confessions Of A Mafia Hitman
Richard is a complete psychopath but calm and very controlling, he is ice cold I have never seen a more dangours human beeing, if you are interested what makes some people tick and how some people just operate completly different to us, this is your documentary.
Up Close and Personal with a Killer When I was finally admitted into the bowels of Trenton State Prison in New Jersey’s capital to ... all » interview multiple murderer Richard Kuklinski, a.k.a. “the Iceman,” it wasn’t at all what I had expected. My assumption was that it would be like the movies. We’d be separated by a shatter-proof glass barrier. We’d communicate through telephone handsets. There would be guards all around watching our every move. But I couldn’t have been more wrong.
This is the part were the Shrink is testing him.

The Bridge:
The most single sadest Documentary I have ever seen, very very interesting if you want to know why some people choose to not life anymore. YOU WILL HAVE TO SEE IT.
The Bridge is a 2006 documentary film by Eric Steel that tells the stories of a handful of individuals who committed suicide at the Golden Gate Bridge in 2004. The film was inspired by an article entitled "Jumpers," which was written by Tad Friend and appeared in The New Yorker magazine in 2003
The documentary caused significant controversy when Eric Steel revealed that he had tricked the Golden Gate Bridge committee into allowing him to film the bridge for months and had captured 23 of 24 known suicides which took place during filming phase of the project.
In his permit application to the Golden Gate National Recreation Area Steel said he intended "to capture the powerful, spectacular intersection of monument and nature that takes place every day at the Golden Gate Bridge"
The movie was shot with multiple cameras pointed at a notorious suicide spot on the bridge during 2004. It captured 19 people as they took their final plunge, and then offers interviews with grieving families.

Hitler speaks:
When Adolf Hitler bought Eva Braun a movie camera, to film the people and parties which occurred at their Bavarian retreat, the technology to include synchronized sound had not yet been developed.
So when soldiers discovered Hitler's private home movies, in the Berlin bunker where the Nazi leader took his own life, the tantalizing clips they unearthed, featuring leading members of the SS in a more relaxed mode, remained silent for 60 years.
Now, leading edge lip reading software has enabled German experts to re-voice these films and provide us with a chilling insight into Hitlers private world

The Death Squats:
The torture and slaughter of Iraqi civilians is reaching unprecedented heights with estimates of up to 655,000 dead.
Night after night ... all » death squads rampage through Iraq's main cities. In Baghdad, up to a hundred bodies a day are dumped on the streets. Often they've been tortured with electric drills. Yet those doing the killing have little to do with al Qaeda or Sunni insurgents. The majority of the killings are carried out by Shia death squads who want to turn Iraq into a Shia state aligned to Iran.
This shocking film investigates the links between the death squads and high-ranking Shia politicians. It reveals how the Shia militia that these politicians control have systematically infiltrated and taken over police units and even entire government ministeries. It investigates how these units are closely linked to the death squads, indeed they often are the death squads. And the killers act with impunity -- there's little investigation into their activities.

Mr. Death: The Rise and Fall of Fred A. Leuchter, Jr.
Documentary about Fred Leuchter, an engineer who became an expert on execution devices and was later hired by revisionist historian Ernst Zundel to "prove" that there were no gas chambers at Auschwitz. Leuchter published a controversial report confirming Zundel's position, which ultimately ruined his own career. Most of the footage is of Leuchter, puttering around execution facilities or chipping away at the walls of Auschwitz, but Morris also interviews various historians, associates, and neighbors

Illegal Drugs & How They Got That Way
There has been a "drug culture" since the dawn of civilization. Sumerian cuneiform tablets from 3000 BC show a poppy harvest, as do ancient Egyptian scripts and Greek statues adorned with poppy crowns. Far more recently, Freud sung the praises of cocaine, which was included in the original recipe for Coca-Cola. But since the industrial revolution, drug use has changed dramatically, and society's response to this--particularly in America--has been to demonize users and make drugs illegal.
Dark Side of Porn - Does Snuff Exist?
The existence of snuff movies remains one of the most enduring of urban legends. The latest film in "The Dark Side of Porn," "Does Snuff Exist?", investigates the truth behind the lurid myth and examines the ways in which fake snuff movies are alleged to have influenced real-life crimes. Directors and producers discuss the lengths to which they went to shock audiences, creating horrifying effects by fusing footage of real accidents and executions with their own mocked-up scenes. More recently, technology has brought a new kind of snuff closer to home, with video, internet and mobile phones providing the ultimate weapons of terror with real images at the click of a button.

Dream Decievers - The Story of James Vance & Judas Priest
On December 23, 1985, two young men in Reno, Nevada put shotguns to their own heads after drinking and smoking marijuana as they listened to a record by the English rock group Judas Priest. Raymond Belknap shot himself fatally, while the other, James Vance, was grossly disfigured.
Their parents, claiming that subliminal messages in the heavy metal band's songs mesmerized the boys into their bizarre suicide pact, filed suit against CBS Records. Centered around this non jurored trial, DREAM DECEIVERS looks at this tragedy through interviews with Vance, his and Belknap's parents, other Reno "metalheads", and members of Judas Priest.
Plastic surgeons tried all they could to restore what was left of Jay's face, but were only able to restore his ability to eat and breathe - the disfigurement was too severe. Jay returned home to live with his parents between hospital visits and would ride his bicycle around town shocking people with his grotesque disfigurement.

Did we land on the Moon?
Fox TV network aired a program called ``Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon?'', hosted by X-Files actor Mitch Pileggi. The program ... all » was an hour long, and featured interviews with a series of people who believe that NASA faked the Apollo Moon landings in the 1960s and 1970s. The biggest voice in this is Bill Kaysing, who claims to have all sorts of hoax evidence, including pictures taken by the astronauts, engineering details, discussions of physics and even some testimony by astronauts themselves. The program's conclusion was that the whole thing was faked in the Nevada desert (Area 51). According to them, NASA did not have the technical capability of going to the Moon, but pressure due to the Cold War with the Soviet Union forced them to fake it.
