ZOO
Zoo, a film by The Stranger columnist Charles Mudede and director Robinson Devor, and executive producers Garr Godfrey and Ben Exworthy, is a documentary on the life and death of Kenneth Pinyan (played by Adam T. McLain) a Seattle area man who died of peritonitis due to perforation of the colon after engaging in receptive anal sex with a horse.
The film's public debut was at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2007, where it was one of 16 winners out of 856 candidates, and played at numerous regional festivals in the USA thereafter. Following Sundance, it was also selected as one of the top five American films to be presented at the prestigious Directors Fortnight sidebar at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival.
The film was made with co-operation of the two men who took Pinyan to the hospital, as well as other friends of his, in the attempt to explore the life and death of the man, as well as those who came to the farm near Enumclaw for similar reasons, beyond the public understanding of the media. It does contain explicit material of sexual activities, but only in the view of video footage shown on a small television screen. (Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org)
Warning: You may find some of the details in this video disturbing.
There are legitimate reasons why some ideas just don't always find their way onto that 'good idea' list,I mean just cause somebody might get aroused at the idea of taking the virginity of a large male Silver-back Gorilla complete with after sex groom time,does that make it a 'good idea' to go beating your chest like your Kong at the biggest gorilla in the zoo or plan a trip to Uganda......Nah,probably no.
I read threw some of the comments and see how many people just dont get the whole zoo thing. Its been around since the dawn of man was in drawing back when man lived in caves. Only since religion has come into play back in the roman times was it frowned on and now today we have all the closed minded people that just dont understand and never will.
I would try to explain it but was always told dont piss in the wind. So no point you people and your short closed minds are made up you will never understand the bond some people can have with the animal they love.
But hey to the people who dont get it you would rather have the dog taken away from its loving home where it was happy (yes dogs can consent to sex a growl and reading body language goes a long way you know when a dog means "no") and have it taken to a pound only to have it sit on a cold floor in a caged cell and have it put down after 3 months. 90% of all dogs over the age of 2 are destroyed and if it does get adopted the dog will never be the same to the next owners the animal will be depressed. Then have the owner put in jail eating up tax money $75,000-95,000 per inmate.
Anyway my little rant am i a zoo nah i just did some research on it after watching this maybe you all should also. Also if you found this so disgusting WHY THE F*&^% DID YOU CLICK ON IT!?!
"They love and care about the animals and don't want to hurt them, so it's okay!" doesn't really wash; a lot of pedophiles will tell you that they're in love with the children they molest and don't feel they're doing anything that harms them, too. That said, I see this as less-bad. More akin to having sex with mentally retarded adults, who some also would believe cannot consent--at least these animals are sexually mature...I guess that's
something. (No I am not trying to compare mentally disabled people to animals, just saying I think it's somewhat more comparable.) And the fact that it's another species is weird, but I think that reflects emotional issues more than anything. I don't necessarily think it's "normal" but I wouldn't call it evil.
This was indeed kind of boring...but I can give them props for not sensationalizing it, which would be so easy to do.
The main thing that immediately struck me was how sad, lonely and isolated these men are.
Then how the stallion ended up getting gelded - Seems cruel.
I wish the doc was not so disjointed, it was quite hard to follow. Beautiful camera work, though - in places.
p.s. Ad hominems don't make Humans look so very smart after all, do they?
I didn't watch this documentary, but after reading what it is about, and then looking at all the comments (it's one of the most commented one in the whole web-site), it seems that this story has struck a core in people, since so many bother to reply to it. But I'm not sure what is more tragic, someone that dies from "peritonitis due to perforation of the colon after engaging in receptive anal sex with a horse" or those that spend time writing hate-speech, ignorant garbage and jokes about it. But maybe that's the point of the movie, to stir debate and let people see for themselves their true faces and then hopefully cause some change. I can only applaud those that helped this person and I hope they did something that helped people or animals by spending time and money creating the documentary.
I graduated from Enumclaw High School about a month before this happened. It was shocking. What was even more shocking is that they put up a statue of a horse on main street awhile afterwards! And most of the places they're shooting in this video are not Enumclaw.
The horse was protecting it's self by kicking him to death .
Come on people.. the only really bad thing about horse buggery is that you've got to get down off the milk stool, and walk all the way around to the front to give it a kiss. Kind of breaks the 'mood,' that.
Hey Wilbuur!
I'm sure the horse was asking for it ....
The speech of the zoo gives blessing. The speech against the zoo does not give blessings. King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)
He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he.
Those against the zoo seek bad. Therefore thay say bad words. How can anyone be happy saying bad words that help no one? The zoosexual is wise to utter good words not condemning words. The tendency to not do that is why the unseen devil attacks the zoo hiding behind people with the pretext of doing good not behaving like Jesus who is good.
Not unhappy the m*ron died. Feel sorry for his family though. Why do these m*rons, peadophiles etc included, hide behind "love" when they really just don't care about anything other than getting their rocks off. It's simple. These id**t's selfishly will not control their weird impulses. Impulse control. Selfishness and lack of impulse control is all it is. These id**ts that involve themselves in such damaging and hurtful behaviour need to stop being so self absorbed and weak. Losers.
This doco just shows excuse after mysteriously darkened scene excuse. Time in my life I won't get back. Wiki it instead of wasting your time.
I have no sympathy at all ! funny how one guy wanted to commit suicide and the others all panicked and knew they were headed for trouble hence
the secrecy . Why ? because they knew it was wrong . The animals had to be trained and the men splashed on a sent from a female horse that would have been in season and ready to accept a male horse, so don't tell me that the horse was not tricked or fooled and it was in a loving relationship ! FFS. I am appalled by the amount of the sick people that engage in bestiality and it does appear to be mainly females making the videos . God it makes one suspicious every time you see a woman walking a larger sized dog . Paranoid you say? well yes a little I guess as I am one of the people that just cant comprehend sex with animals . Many men that are involved in encouraging a woman to participate in such acts mainly for the $ in making these videos and would not engage in bestiality them self's and view the woman that is making such a film as the absolute filth and discussing members of our race and the degradation and the fact that they will commit such acts just puts them into the worst of the worst . To anyone that thinks different and thinks its ok , I ask you this
how would you feel if you came home from work and had sex with your partner, did your thing and gave her oral only to find out that Rover had just blown his load in her ten seconds before?! Me I would not stop vomiting for months or years and would probably cut both of there throats .So I am saying that harm will come to you if do this crap around me!.We all know its wrong same as necrophilia and nobody gets hurt there, do they?FFS !
I try very hard to understand the way not only how the so-called "normal" people think but, the "abnormal". This is just beyond me no matter how or what angle I use or reasoning I try, it just will not register. To have SEX with animals people! think about it. Really, the sheer differences in bacterias, and whatever it is that we as human get out of sex, even with strangers, you can't get, what-so-ever with animals. It's a kind of spiritual thing once you come, and it's good, and with a person compatible. Hard to explain. The only thing that ruins what I'm trying to describe, is being very drunk and not remembering at all the intimacy. But, most of the time, even with hundreds of partners through out the years, you get a certain closeness even for a moment, then you go on. But, with an animal is cruel and abusive. The sicko should go to jail.
Ok I know I shouldn't laugh but the bit at the end about the family dog. O my god that was funny. Like seriously glad I wasn't drinking when that came on. It seems like it's straight out of south park or something. Banging the family dog o no. Thought I'd comment this way instead of arguing the morality of it which is weird and weird at the same time.
I think the guy had some sick fetish for being with the biggest available penis, he even makes a statement about "the horse is still the biggest thing out there" , he knows it's morally wrong but uses he's in love with it to try to soften the disgust we all feel for his actions. I think it's clear how God feels about it, he took his life and made him suffer to boot.
....well i was told about this doc, rather i was told i should watch it. I take issues or subjects (or general debates) and put them through an analytical unbiased process in which i show the negative and positive aspects or implications.
i finished watching the...documentary, and here it goes
they're sick in the head. chemicals in their brains are not balanced right or they all suffer from profound trauma.
There's nothing wrong with loving animals, but LEAVE THE SEX OUT OF IT YOU SICK FREAKS!
Its sexual molestation pure and simple. Animals are like children to us mentally and you are taking advantage of them for your own sexual gratification. I would throw you in the same pot as child molesters, and I'm not sure which is worse, you or them.
as a man thinks in his mind so he is
The "soul" doesn't mean anything. If the soul you believe in is not a function of the brain, where exactly is it?
I don't know what's more disturbing, the video or the comment section?!
Come on, they gelded the bloody horse so that none of those people would adopt him. I'm sure the horse was thrilled.
Okay, first off, that was the worst "documentary" ever, and could hardly be classified as a documentary in MY opinion. It left out extreme amounts of information and didn't answer any of the questions one asks when hearing the story.
The most annoying part of the documentary is that it pretty much ignores the entire sexual part of zoophiles or bestiality and whatnot, and instead focuses on this supposed loving and emotionally attached relationship between the man and animal, when the main plotline is the death of man due to ANAL SEX with an animal. To not focus on the actual sexuality and sexual intercourse makes this documentary fairly useless. On the topic of this "love" between the man and animal, what really bugs me about that is that these people are assuming the animal loves them back :| It's ridiculous. This animal is not in a romantic relationship with you, it's an animal. It doesn't have the same psychology in it's brain as humans do. Which is why it is so WRONG to have sex with it.
What should also be mentioned, is that horses don't go around trying to have sex with other animals, including humans (that I know of). What would someone say if they worked on a farm and suddenly their horse was trying to have sex with them? They wouldn't assume the horse is in love with them! They'd (hopefully) realize the horse is acting on instincts and nature and etc, and is probably just unaware as to what type of animal it is trying to engage in sex with. But when a human, who has a much higher level of thinking than any other animal, tries to have sex with an animal that is not a human being, there's obviously something wrong with that human.
This fetish or whatever you want to call it is the same as pedophilia and rape, because the person is acting on this bizarre impulse they have without acknowledging the fact that the other person might not actually WANT them to be having sex with them, since the other person, or animal in this case, is somehow unable to fully vocalize it, and even when it is vocalized, it's ignored.
WTF are you smoking kid......your lover's cat nip!? You can't be for real. Dld you just post that Jesus doesn't mind about your animal fr**king fetish??? Ah man, you ain't right. But Ill tell ya what, I've got a Basset Hound here that you can boink! Ya..no really! you two can do that internet sex thing. Ill hold my dog's a$$ up to the web cam and you can have at it...really! You don't have any weird diseases and work in a slaughter house do ya? Because the last thing I want to do is take a bite of a T-bone steak and catch the clap! So....ah..dam your nasty!...ah so, are you allowed around pet stores?....dog groomers?....horse races?....chicken farms?...ah, pig farms -hunting trips-dairy farms-hamster wheels-bird cages-fish tanks......ah hell! the list can go on and on. What I'm trying to get at is what is your animal of choice....chickens?..monkies?..turtles?..um..donkeys? Never mind, I don't want to know. Has your sick a$$ ever molested a blind persons handicap dog! No really, whose animal are you porking??? I mean when you see a cat cross the street do you pull a condom out of your wallet and give chase?? Sick f--k!
PS. You do know that the story in the Bible about Jesus riding into town on a donkey wasn't a sex act....don't you???
damn it, sucked back in......and i even know its the same guy....what is wrong with me?
