These two galleries have different caps, but both appear to be from the same movie. Maybe they should be merged?

 

TTT, thanks for bringing up this old post of a documentary. New to me. Sometimes what happened in real life is way more sadistic than any dark fantasy. It's on YT, crucifixion at 21:49, and still image at 23:09. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTnCaW-Uo_s

 

Thanks for pointing it out. I unlisted the "Credo" set. I won't merge since the other set is pretty inclusive of all screens.

"Aurora Mardiganian, a survivor of the Armenian genocide of 1915–1923, recalled sixteen young Armenian girls being "crucified" by their Ottoman tormentors. The film Auction of Souls (1919), which was based on her book Ravished Armenia, showed the victims nailed to crosses. However, almost 70 years later Mardiganian revealed to film historian Anthony Slide that the scene was inaccurate. She described what was actually an impalement. She stated that "The Turks didn't make their crosses like that. The Turks made little pointed crosses. They took the clothes off the girls. They made them bend down, and after raping them, they made them sit on the pointed wood, through the vagina. That's the way they killed – the Turks. Americans have made it a more civilized way. They can't show such terrible things." "

Holy shit, you weren't kidding.
