Hide Your Children, They’re Remaking FACES OF DEATH The duo behind CAM is rebooting the infamous video nasty. By Phil Nobile Jr. · @philnobilejr · May 7, 2021, 8:01 PM EDT In the ‘80s we used to have Faces of Death parties. We’d go to the house of whatever kid (usually Timmy Gardner or possibly Jeff Saperstein) could talk his parents into renting it for him, drink shitty beer and/or wine coolers, and gather around the kid’s living room as the 113-minute tape played out. It was a nasty rite of passage for kids of the era, many of whom were, anecdotally speaking, too stoned or drunk to parse what was real or fake in the 1978 faux-documentary. The film became the poster child for the “think of the children” hysteria surrounding horror in the ‘80s. Thankfully for us, Timmy Gardner’s mom didn’t get the memo.
