HAS PERFECTION IN FILM MAKING EVER GONE AWRY?


Spoiler alert: she is sitting on a bicycle seat and has to look up while balancing this big piece of wood in her mouth. Quite a performance.


Yes. For the horror film Cannibal Holocaust (1980)

The director wanted the most realistic scenes possible. But his sense of detail turned against him because many people were convinced that the murder scenes were real.

Especially the one where a young woman is impaled alive.

The director made another "mistake" by asking the actors not to act in other films for an entire year. They were forbidden to do any other project, which reinforced the public's suspicions that those poor souls were really gone.

It was only when they showed up in court to testify that they were in good health that the lawsuit was dropped.

Pretty twisted, huh?
