00:00And all my years as a licensed mortician, I've never seen anything like this.
00:07That was ridiculous.
00:08I'm Osgood Perkins, I wrote and directed the upcoming motion picture called The Monkey
00:15I'm Here With.
00:16Theo James, one of the stars, and we're here with Matt and Heather, professional morticians.
00:20We're going to take a look at some clips from The Monkey, featuring some of the wild
00:23death sequences that we have.
00:27I assume a really sharp knife could do that.
00:34Um, yeah.
00:35Really?
00:36Have you ever had a head?
00:37Yes.
00:38Absolutely.
00:39There's a famous case where the head was removed and then the woman's eyes followed the man
00:43around the room for like a couple of minutes.
00:45Is it a thing that a head keeps talking?
00:47No, absolutely not.
00:48You know, the last guillotine in France was in 1977.
00:53He was trampled by a stampede of 67 wild horses in a sleeping bag on a camping trip.
00:59It looked like someone had dropkicked a cherry on a grape.
01:02Would you be able to bury that with an open casket?
01:04Not quite.
01:05But say this happened, they bring the body to you and they say, we'd like to still do
01:08an open casket.
01:09What do you do?
01:10Sculpture.
01:11Yeah.
01:12Put it inside the skin.
01:13Yeah.
01:14A friend of mine had to rebuild his face.
01:15Old skull.
01:16Holy shit.
01:18Holy fuck.
01:21Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:25That was ridiculous.
01:26So tell me, have you seen people dead as a result of electrocution?
01:29And what does it normally look like?
01:31Coloration and limbs.
01:32Yeah.
01:33You have direct contact with electrical current.
01:35You might have a hand blow open or something like that.
01:37Ah.
01:38The current goes through, it's got to come out somewhere.
01:40Well, I'm too excited.
01:41Kind of.
01:42I've never seen a body part detached personally.
01:45Because of electricity.
01:46Because of electricity.
01:47Doesn't mean it can't be true.
01:48I was expecting a drowning case.
01:49You're welcome.
01:50Surprise.
01:56There'd be that amount of arterial spray.
01:59That's why I was sweaty.
02:02He'd have to stay in there a long time.
02:03See, see, where's this going to go?
02:05This is still painful.
02:10Happens every day.
02:12Ah.
02:14That would be a really spot-on rupture.
02:16Yeah.
02:17Technically possible.
02:22Ah.
02:23You just sat in a coffin.
02:24Have you ever had a dead body smelling everywhere?
02:27Do they fart?
02:28All the time.
02:29Worst smell in the world.
02:30The fart of a dead body is the worst smell in the world.
02:32That's what we've learned today.
02:33Go see The Monkey in theaters February 21st.
02:35We'll comp them tickets.
02:38It'll be better.
02:39Come on baby, let's have some fun.
