Modify (2005)

This movie is an expository documentary about the various forms of body modification practiced out there today-- mostly focusing on the US.  It is shot mostly in interview form without hearing or seeing the interviewer, spliced in with footage of performances, surgeries, branding, etc.  It goes in depth with why they do it and the fascinating insight of their personal beliefs and philosophy.  It's inspiring how they can do such extreme things with their bodies and not fear what others may think of them.  A good deal of it is very graphic and should not be seen by the light of heart, but it is definitely a good documentary to watch whether you have tattoos/ piercings or not.
