SALES STRONG FOR GROSS-OUT VIDEO

ORLAND PARK, Ill. (Wireless Flash) -- A bizarre new documentary featuring ghoulish medical scenes hopes to become "The Blair Witch Project" of gross out. The video -- called "The Strange And The Gruesome" -- features graphic footage of everything from a witch doctor performing a very gory looking circumcision to a snippet showing how dental surgery was performed 50 years using hammers and chisels. The producer of the video, Howard Motyl, says he purposely collected the grossest medical footage available -- and his lithmus test on whether to keep a clip was based on whether his production crew got sick when he showed it to them. Amazingly, Motyl says footage showing a child being born sickened the most people which, he speculates, is because "...giving birth may be a beautiful thing but it's still gross."
