Dances Sacred and Profane Redux

DVD released in 2005

To best understand body rituals and fringe cultures in the U.S. circa the 1980s, this is Needled's DVD of choice. Dances Sacred and Profane Redux features modern day ascetic Fakir Musafar as well as Jim Ward, the pioneer of the modern piercing movement in America. It's not for the faint-hearted, but anyone with an interest in the Bod Mod scene should own this seminal work.

$30 from BME Shop.
