A subgenre of mockumentary that focus on exotic customs and particularly gruesome subject matters. Also referred to as "shockumentaries" and "exploitation pseudo-documentaries."
"Faces of Death" is an American mondo production that talks about and depicts various methods of death and violence. While panned critically, "Face of Death" has become a staple of the genre and can be considered a gateway film for those with a passing interest in mondo films.
