116 - Faces of Death
from Have You Seen This?
Tim and Jen confront the most infamous mondo film of all time, Faces of Death! Faces of Death may be viewed in its entirety on Tubi. Echoing Jen’s experience in high school auto safety, two students were traumatized after their math teacher showed the film in class in 1985: “The people at the table,” says Forget today, “beat this monkey over the head with a hammer until it died. Then they cut the top of its head off and ate its brains.” As an animal-lover, she found the film deeply disturbing and asked to leave. Mr Schwartz said no and when Feese also tried to go, he forced her to sit down, grabbing her chair and spinning it aggressively towards the screen. Schwarz was disciplined, but with only a 15-day suspension without pay.
