When Faces of Death was originally released in 1978, the mere thought that you could watch actual people die was enough to sell the movie, even if it ended up being mostly faked (thus not a "true" snuff film). Flash-forward about 40 years or so, and your Mass Media Studies teacher can show you footage

The new Faces of Death isn't really a remake of the infamous mondo video from the 1970s. It's something with a lot more on its mind.
