Had an idea for something to make but don’t have the time or inclination at the moment. Remember An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge? Tryin’ not to spoil the ending if you’re not familiar, but it’s become a trope you can see in modern movies still, such as Twilight: Breaking Dawn and The Green Knight. Uh, sorry I spoiled those if you were familiar with Owl Creek but hadn’t seen them yet. Whatever.
Basically, gay porn version. Guy is about to be executed on a bridge and says, “wait, grant me a dying wish.” Like, he always wanted to suck a dick but he never got around to it, so he offers to suck off every dude on the bridge, says he’d be ok with getting shot if he could do that first. And then Owl Creek twist.
Wait. That doesn’t work because both versions of events end with the guy dead. Back to the drawing board. Or you can have it. You’re welcome?

Instead of being shot, the original hanging fits better with an erotic asphyxiation angle along with choking on various members (heh, he said members) of the execution squad. Snuff porn may also still be a thing, so there is that aspect as well. You’d have to avoid the initial pain segment and replace it with a reasonable explanation as to how hallucinated negotiations take place, maybe a too tight noose.

ah, it can be worked! why did i remember it as a shooting? was it a shooting in the short that got used for a twilight zone episode, or maybe they just held him at gunpoint for the hanging? grisly tho.
Alan G. Humphrey says
The shooting occurs during his escape after the rope breaks after he starts feeling the pain and effects of the hanging.
