Story

Director/Creator Conan Le Cilaire attempts to quell the mysteries surrounding his controversial Faces of Death film series. After the release of the films, questions arose as to the authenticity of some of the scenes in them and whether or not the films themselves belonged to the outlawed "snuff film" genre. Mr. Le Cilaire reveals information regarding scenes such as those involving monkey brain meals, animal slaughter, and executions.
